5th Company, Raven Guard Chapter
The 5th Company of the Raven Guard, known as "The Watchful", is one of the Chapter's Battle Companies.[1a][1b][4]
The 5th utilizes the third and final Path of Shadow, Vigilance. This was held to be the most important of the three by Corax, and involves specialising in battlefield reconnaissance and countering enemy infiltrators. The 5th has the greatest access to the Raven Guard's armoury and uses large numbers of tanks and Centurion Warsuits in battle. Their accuracy of fire is renowned, a result of studying their foes' weaknesses and habits. The weakness of the 5th is that it tends to brood upon unfolding events, awaiting a perfect moment rather than acting. To try and counterbalance this, the 5th operates the largest formation of jump infantry outside of the 8th Company in order to give them the ability to respond quickly.[1b]
Beyond their battlefield duties, the 5th is charged with watching over the Ravenspire and awaiting the return of Corax.[1b]
