[[Image:Khorne berserker2.jpg|thumb|right|A [[Khorne Berzerker{{Cite This}}]]Even before their fall to Chaos the World Eaters War Hounds were known as a bloodthirsty Legionto favour close assaults, and becoming this doctrine only grew more pronounced under the command of Angron and the transition into the World Eaters. Angron did little to change the chosen Legion higher-level organisation of the legion, with the [[Khorneechelons]] did little (a World Eaters formation roughly equivalent to change thisthe [[Chapters]] of other legions) only undergoing a slight biasing towards line infantry. In battle they disregard mortal peril to sate their bloodlust in The World Eaters as a legion force could best be described as a hybrid of tactical and close combatassault units, often displaying a berserker rage that makes them invulnerable to wounds that would kill even a Space Marinewith significant amounts of assault support units such as [[Terminators]] and [[Land Speeders]].{{Fn|14e}}

The preferred method In terms of assault for combat deployment, the World Eaters is a were champions of the [[Drop Poddrop-pod]] assault, followed by a charge into usually choosing to appear in the heart of the enemy lines. They have also been known 's defences, in order to drop right into enemy formationsrip it apart from within. Unlike other Space Marines who use tactical attacks with squadsWhen heavy firepower was required to support such a tactic, the World Eaters tend were not averse to throw themselves as a whole force in the middle of battle.  The most common advancing under danger-close combat weapon in the World Eaters is the Khorne [[Chainaxeorbital bombardment]]or close Titan support. While infantry assault was their primary stratagem, a weapon seldom seen outside the Legion. In the hand of a berserker Marine it is a fearsome weaponlegion did possess respectable armour and artillery units, capable of hacking through even [[Power Armour]]and were highly adept at their use. The World Eaters originally followed a regular Legion formation Transport vehicles and contained specialized warriors such as [[Rampager]]sthose able to closely support infantry were obviously prevalent, but after and the [[Battle assault doctrine of Skalathrax]] they have taken to working the legion was so strongly ingrained in small warbands that often enlist with other, larger Chaos armies. These warbands have no common organisation, rather doing whatever suits their current leaders.  The original World Eater colour scheme was bright white with blue markings, which changed into a blood red with brass markings after the Heresy. It is rumoured marines that the World Eaters did not change their colours but simply spilled so much blood that their armour took the dark red colour. This doesn't really explain the brass nor their unique Khornate helmetseven vehicle crew carried assault weapons as standard issue, and is likely would often find a legend based on their reputationmeans to employ them.{{Fn|14e}}
