The very best that the Schola Progenium can offer, the Tempestus Scions are the elite strike soldiers of the Astra Militarum. Trained from a young age in teams of
efficient killers, and equipped with their iconic Hot-shot Lasguns, encased in protective Carapace Armour, and boasting advanced targeting scanners, they represent the mono-filament scalpel of the Astra Militarum’s brute force arsenal. They are regularly tasked with infiltration, sabotage, reconnaissance, and in open war they are trained in orbital drop manoeuvres to land in the heart of enemy lines where they can deal the most damage and destabilise or destroy key defences. Only those who are proven and devout remain in the Tempestus Scions for long, meaning that they are always single-minded and brutal in action and manner.
