	The XVIII legion earned the name Sanguis Clibanarii (blood cavalry) during the wars of Unification on Terra. It stems not from a single incident but from the Legion tendency to rush into the thickest parts of battle to support the hardest pressed. Be they Astarte or Imperial Guardsmen. There tendency to move to support others in battle lead to greater mobility - which in turn lead to an ever increasingly fluid style of battle - which in turn lead to greater mobility and so the cycle developed.
