Fighting Tiger Fast Attack
Strike before the enemy draws
his weapon: this is the motto of Jatis Ghuyarashtra, whose Tigers
have made speed the cornerstone of their strategy. Fighting Tiger armies
are almost always able to field a wide variety of swift assault units.
Tigers of Kali
see
"Assault Squad" in Codex: Space Marines
All Tigers
of Kali are female and dedicate themselves to the Vedic goddess of death
and slaughter. They have been known to keep and use close combat weapons
that they have taken in battle from defeated aliens like Eldar and Orks.
By tradition, Tigers of Kali deploy in 10-strong squads.

Tigers of Indra:
Vanguard Veteran Fighting Tigers see
"Vanguard Veteran Squad" in Codex: Space Marines
Chosen from
the best Tigers of Rudra and Kali, these
Space Marines still honor their former deity but dedicate themselves anew
to Indra, captain of the gods. Vanguard squads may be integrated by jatis
and sex. Exceptional members of these squads may become Terminators. These
squads tend to be larger than Sternguard units. One exception Vanguard
unit is the Fighting Tiger Black Ops, who specialize in jungle warfare
and wear green armor as camoflauge. Recently, this squad rooted out a Chaos
sect that had infiltrated Veda itself.

of the Fighting Tiger Black Ops (Vanguard Veterans)

squads.

and Tornadoes.
Excerpt
from report by Anhuran Patel, Chief Tiger of Savitri
(Jatis
Ghuyarashtra), to Rajas Surya Ashoka and Shrendi Vastar,
concerning
feasibility of female Space Marines
Human
armies that have used females as warriors have always faced questions about
strength, stamina, sexuality, and aggressiveness. After extensive research,
we have found that not only are the processes of transforming females into
Space Marines little different from those used with males, but that these
processes negate many of those questions.
Drugs
and surgery will allow each female Fighting Tiger to be as strong, quick,
and resilient as males. As we do with male Space Marines, we will neuter
the females, removing or nullifying reproductive systems so that they will
be mentally/emotionally unwilling and physically unable to procreate. Details
follow in the pages provided, but, in summary, we recommend beginning the
program immediately (at least on a temporary basis) to fill personnel ranks. |
