CAPTAIN SHRIKE
OF THE RAVEN GUARD
Captain
Shrike made his name during the campaign to destroy the Ork Warlord on Targus
VIII, a hive world locked in perpetual night on the fringes of the Halo Stars
of the galactic south. Fallen to the might of their Waaagh!, the task of reclaiming
this world was entrusted to the Raven Guard, ten regiments of the Imperial Guard
and their attached Naval units. Carefully selected targets were assigned to
squads of Raven Guard to destroy prior to the Imperial invasion, and Shrike
led an assault force of Space Marines deep behind enemy lines to take out a
giant orbital gun. Striking hard and fast, Shrike's force accomplished its primary
mission, but was left stranded when its Thunderhawk was destroyed en route to
extract them.
Undaunted, Shrike and his warriors remained deep in Ork territory for over two years before finally returning to the Chapter. During this time, they provided invaluable targeting information to Naval assets and wreaked havoc in the rear echelons of the Ork armies, destroying fuel dumps, ammunition stores and uncounted vehicle parks before vanishing into the shadows of the ruined hive, all the while stealing what they needed to survive and continue their mission. Shrike was honoured with the Laurel Imperialis upon his triumphant return to his battle brothers, having upheld his honour and exemplified the virtues of his Chapter. Thanks largely to Shrike's efforts, the campaign was brought to a victorious end decades before Imperial Strategos predicted.
Captain Shrike may be included in your Raven Guard army of 1,500 points or more as an HQ choice.
