Even before being reunited with their primarch, Perturabo, the Iron Warriors were known for an affinity with technology and the clinical application of logic to military problems. This affinity was channeled by PertuarboPerturabo, a skilled practitioner of siegecraft, into the mastery of that form of warfare. These abilities were increased by cross-training with the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. Their Warsmiths could match skills with [[Techpriest#Magos|Magi]] and it is said that Perturabo could beat any and all in the art of machine engineering. Their methodical attitude made them merciless men in battle and siege. After the siege works were built there was a choice given to the besiegers; either they throw down their arms then and there or the Iron Warriors would show no mercy. Just like many other legions they soon gained the reputation of brutality during siege, not to mention their merciless manner after the siege took place.
The Iron Warriors suffered a great deal of dispersion during the [[Great Crusade]], with various units being detached for separate siege and garrison missions.
