Host of Wind
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Symbol of the Host of Wind[1]
The Host of Wind was one of the Hosts of the First Legion of the Legiones Astartes.[1]
Overview
Skirmishers and cavalry warriors, the Host of Wind excelled where warfare moved at the speed of the storm that was their namesake. Experts in the use of light armour and jetbikes, as well as swift assault troops, the Host of the Wind enjoyed a reputation as one of the most glorious in the First Legion, though it also bore one of the highest tallies of the dead for its reckless valour.[1]
In time, the Hosts would be reorganised into the six Wings of the Hexagrammaton.[1]
