Other Torchbearers were assigned to reach [[Chapter]]s that were known to be nearing extinction. These task forces were then charged with determining if the Chapters still existed and if they did, then the Torchbearers were to begin replenishing their depleted strength. If, however, the Chapter had been destroyed, then it was to be reestablished from amongst the task force's [[Greyshield]]s, and then charged with exacting vengeance upon whatever foe had destroyed their original forebears. Some Torchbearers, though, were assigned to Chapters who, for reasons of doctrine, genetic heritage, or historical circumstance, were expected to resist the gift of the [[Primaris Space Marine|Primaris]]. In such cases these task forces' garrisons of [[Adeptus Custodes]] was typically larger than average, to leave no doubt that they delivered a boon graced by the [[Emperor]] himself.{{Fn|1}}
A known battle of the Torchbearers is the [[War of the Spider]].{{Fn|2}}
