=Legion Tactics= The Entombed favor heavy armour and overwhelming firepower. They are most effective in close-quarters, zone mortalis situations, such as in the streets of a city, winding underground caverns, or in boarding operations. They employ a shattering tactic: Dreadnoughts lay down heavy fire with their Ossuary cannons, while terminators deploy behind enemy lines to disrupt the enemy. Entombed tactics have proved instrumental in breaking Ork charges and invalidating Eldar mobility, as well as displacing fortified positions during the Heresy. Late in the Great Crusade they began to field what would one day come to be called Chaplains, officers in charge of boosting the morale of their brothers. The skull-shaped helms of modern chaplains are theorized by Imperial historians to have been adopted by other legions in homage to The Fallen Legion. ==Legion Equipment== [[File:Entombed Armours.png|300px|thumb]] To compensate for their difficulty in recouping losses, The Entombed have opted to wear much heavier armour. The VI Legion has a disproportionately large amount of Terminator Armour, and because the geneseed of the dead often cannot be recovered, mortally wounded marines are hastily interred in dreadnoughts or given cybernetic prosthetics. The Entombed field a unique Ossuary Pattern Dreadnought, with thicker armour and armed with the Demolisher Cannons usually seen on Vindicators. The wide, bulky frame of the Ossuary necessary to bear the recoil of the Demolisher cannon was a transitional form between the relatively lithe contemptor patterns of 30k and the bulkier, slower patterns of 40k. The dreadnought of Primarch Golgothos, designed by a collaboration of his brothers, served as the prototype for such designs.
