At the time of the Warmaster's advance on the Coronid Deeps, his Legion's armoured forces had been replenished substantially, having been severely depleted during the conflicts at Isstvan III and Isstvan V. In part this was because the Sons of Horus, and to some degree all of the Traitor Legions, had been able to salvage a treasure trove of war machines and materiel from the wreckage laid out upon the sands of the Urgall Depression in the wake of the Isstvan V Dropsite Massacre. It was also because the Warmaster's lieutenants ensured that, as the Traitor armies progressed, the efforts of the Dark Mechanicum and the brutal tithe extracted from the worlds they subjugated were first set to the supply of Horus' own above all others. This ensured that the latest and most powerful?legiones astartes war machines，such as Falchion and Sicaran，quickly replaced lost or damaged war machines of older pattern still in the legion's service.?

The 28th Armoured Assault Company“The Back Breaker"

第28裝甲突擊連隊(duì)“斷背者”(機(jī)仆：魔法小馬哥震怒)

During the Warmaster's invasion of the Coronid Deeps, the armoured formations of the Sons of Horus were deployed across multiple war zones. In particular, the 28th?Armoured Assault Company (known by the informal cognomen of the 'Back Breakers' for their use as a heavy assault attrition unit) claimed battle honours at Lascal and Taracanis, broken up into smaller, ship-based battlegroups, before taking part en masse in the final destruction of Hive Ilium on Manachea. In this conflict, the Sons of Horus deployed an enormous range and variety of armoured formations, maintaining a fluid command structure that allowed them to operate as a highly mobile reserve capable of reinforcing successful breakthroughs and delivering the final, crushing blow to a collapsing enemy defence. In particular, as the bulk of the Legion committed to the assault on Hive Ilium penetrated the hive city's dense environs, it split fluidly into multiple smaller strike groups. Each of these was assigned a squadron of tanks or an individual super-heavy tank to force a way through the heavier choke points and city nexuses, crushing defended positions and engaging enemy armour even as the Sons of Horus infantry counter-attacked any enemy that attempted to outflank the war engines and bring melta weaponry to bear.

在戰(zhàn)帥入侵王冠深淵期間，荷魯斯之子的裝甲編隊(duì)被部署到了多個戰(zhàn)區(qū)。尤其是第28裝甲突擊連隊(duì)（由于被用作給敵人造成消耗重型突擊單位，他們也得到了非正式別名：斷背者）聲稱在Lascal 和?Taracanis取得了戰(zhàn)斗榮譽(yù)，在集體參加Manachea世界上的最終摧毀Ilium巢都到了戰(zhàn)斗之前，他們被劃分成更小的、基于星艦的戰(zhàn)斗群。在這次戰(zhàn)斗中，荷魯斯之子部署了一支載具種類繁多的裝甲編隊(duì)，而且保持了一套不固定的指揮結(jié)構(gòu)，這允許他們作為能夠加強(qiáng)成功的突破并實(shí)現(xiàn)最終目標(biāo)的高度機(jī)動后備力量進(jìn)行運(yùn)作，對正在崩潰的敵人防線的毀滅性打擊。尤其是隨著大半個軍團(tuán)負(fù)責(zé)進(jìn)攻Ilium巢都并刺穿了巢城密集的周圍地區(qū)環(huán)境，該連隊(duì)流暢地劃分成多個較小的打擊群，每個打擊群都被分配了一支坦克中隊(duì)或者單獨(dú)的一輛超重型坦克，用于強(qiáng)行通過大型阻塞點(diǎn)和城市交叉點(diǎn)，它們碾碎抵抗據(jù)點(diǎn)，與敵軍裝甲部隊(duì)交戰(zhàn)，同時荷魯斯之子軍團(tuán)的步兵們會反擊任何試圖從側(cè)翼包抄戰(zhàn)爭引擎并讓熱熔武器發(fā)揮作用的敵人。
