|quote = '''''The desert, from a distance, can seem to be little more than a barren waste, devoid of feature or variation. We who know the desert can see past this façade, for the dunes can conceal much of significance. Like the sandstorm, we can rise up swiftly to ravage our foes, and vanish as swiftly, leaving no trace of our presence but the damage wrought. As the burning sun and open sksy, to walk before us unprepared is to invite doom. We are the desert, and the desert is merciless.'''''

The '''Elysian Drop Troops''' are [[Imperial Guard Regiment]]s known for their rapid deployment capabilities, often deploying by rappelling or [[grav-chute]]s from [[Valkyrie]] Airborne Troop Carriers at high altitudes. These drop regiments are able to strike deep into enemy territory, specialising in ambushing the enemy or capturing important objectives, and can operate for extended periods of time without resupply.
