OK so I wanted to do this but Im not exactly sure w=how to word this so here goes:
The Cadian 117th is a very small regiment made up of troopers form the Cadian 8th left behind on the counter attack on the Volscani Cataphracts. This unit created confusion among enemy lines in the following days. The reason for them being left behind is uknown. It is speculated that some vox 'comms were misunderstood and or never recieved, Usarker E. Creed never fully know who far the part of the 8th known as the 7th Company, got before getting cutoff from the rest. The 7th got much deeper into enemy lines then most of the Comapnies did and in doing so, when the cataphracts pulled back,ran into them. They had to carve a bloody path out of the Volscani and in the end finally met up with their mother unit. Problems came afterwards. Usarker E. Creed thought the 7th had gotten utterly destoryed in the attack. So when the commander of the 7th was killed in combat carving their way through there was no way to tell which unit they really were. So Creed decided to consult the warmaster(Idk the name) and in the end decided upon creating a new regiment. The Cadian 117th were founded!
The Cadian 117th is a very light regiment, implimenting much more infantry than vehicles. A normal company contains 2 half plattons or more, followed by a squad of stomrtroopers, and a Leman russ for support. Their special weapon of choice is the grenade luancher. Their tactics include bombarding the enemy with long range fire using basilisk and troopers in cover to blitzkrieg tactics.
The nomral Cadian 117th infantryman must learn the ways of all Cadian people. Very militaristic in nature and very tough to kill, these troops are experts at cityfighting and defensive movements.
The actual numbers of men to women ratio are quite even with the ratio being 7 men outm of every ten troopers. This is mainly because it is a replacemtn regiment used in the most needed areas. Therefore they must recruit all people.
Well If i find out more about my regiment soon I will letya know!
