They are deployed on the battlefield as scouts, patrol units and for quick hit-and-run attacks; living mounts allow Rough Riders to function far from [[Imperial]] supply lines, in terrain unsuitable for mechanized warfare, and avoid detection.{{Fn|1}} Though armoured no better than the average [[Guardsman]], their speed and maneuverability is their true asset on the battlefield, able to charge into the enemy's flanks for devastating effect.{{Fn|1}}

Rough Riders are primarily trained for close combat, not ranged assault, they are often armed simply with a [[hunting lance]] and [[laspistol]] or other close-combat weapon, as well as [[frag grenade|frag]] and [[krak grenade]]s; some squads will arm themselves with special weapons such as a [[flamer]], [[grenade launcher]], [[meltagun]] or [[plasma gun]]. Squads are generally composed of four to nine riders in addition to a [[Imperial Guard Sergeant|Sergeant]], who sometimes carries [[melta bomb]]s in addition to a [[power weapon]] or [[plasma pistol]].{{Fn|1}}
