The '''Mordant Acid Dogs''' are the [[Imperial Guard]] [[regiment]]s recruited from [[Mordant Prime]].
Mordant is an mining world where the population lives in the subterranean tunnels. The conditions within the tunnels are harsh, where criminal gangs are the only authority and citizens must prey upon each other for the meagre meager resources. Only the skilled miners, part of a very old organization of clans, do not suffer from the poverty of the world. The miners contract local manual labourlabor, paying just enough to allow the most basic of living conditions in the shacks of the shanty caverns.
The Mordant regiments are generally formed from those that cannot live on the miserable payment of the mining clans or earn the wrath of one of the criminal gangs.
==Equipment==
Mordant regiments have little in the way of a standardised standardized appearance, much of their personal equipment acquired from previous war zones. As with Imperial Guard regiments in general, their equipment is marked with symbols from the culture of their home world.
Mordant soldiers will often be armed with weapons not issued to them during their regiment's founding, such as the [[Triplex Phall|Triplex]]-type lasgun, a rare model in the regions the Mordant regiments have fought, but highly valued by soldiers who must fight in underground tunnels. A veteran of many campaigns will often have acquired a range of specialised specialized and uncommon weapons and equipment, either from past war zones or stolen from soldiers of other regiments.
==Notable regiments==
===Mordant 13th "Lucky 13s"===
