Intercession Squad ^kt21

Intercession Squads are one of the most common kill teams deployed by Space Marines accompanying the Indomitus Crusade Fleets. Intended as a standard pattern for Adeptus Astartes kill teams, Intercession Squad protocols are disseminated to every fleet. These specialist groups of Intercessors and Assault Intercessors were first formulated by the Primarch Roboute Guilliman and have proven brutally effective. The Lord Commander planned them as tactically adaptable teams that could respond to the needs of all manner of missions, for even his strategic genius could not foresee all the manifold threats that the fleets would encounter out in the galaxy's darkness.
