Changes

It is common for a later cycle’s Neophyte Hybrids to infiltrate a world’s [[PDF]], or even those [[Imperial Guard]] [[regiment]]s founded from amongst its populace. There, they work alongside the infected humans that have felt the [[Genestealer’s Kiss]] to ensure the cult’s sympathizers spread ever further. The Neophytes propagate slowly throughout the ranks of the local military, taking over each corps from the inside until all of its soldiers pay obeisance to the [[Patriarch]]. These professional warriors carry [[Departmento Munitorum|Munitorum]]-issue [[lasgun]]s instead of [[autogun]]s, and use [[frag grenade]]s in place of repurposed mining explosives. Some even have access to heavier weaponry and may hijack the famously indomitable vehicles of the Imperial Guard to their cause. The foot soldiers of the cult may well fight in the Imperium’s wars, defending their homes from the forces of [[Chaos]] and other [[xenos]] species. In doing so, they defend the cult and all that it has worked to achieve. Bound by the ties of the brood and a surety of common purpose, they make determined and capable warriors, but this only makes it all the more horrifying when their true nature is revealed.{{Fn|1}}
