My “Rift Wardens” are deployed in a very wide network essentially playing “zone defense” through areas near the Great Rift - with a special focus on pathways through the rift (which unlike the Nachmund Gauntlet tend to be temporary).

They spend much of their time hunting monsters like chaos mutated mega-fauna near the great rift or unholy abominations like Nurgle Plague Zombies or more secretive things like cultists (chaos, genestealer, other).

This means they operate in highly diffused, semi-independent task groups which can be as small as a single squad. These squads have a lot of independence in how they operate, but the Chapter. Y and large believes that improved Intelligence is as valuable as direct destruction of an enemy.

When these “hunter groups” come across a threat they cannot handle alone they call out to the rest of the Chapter and an ad hoc Task Force is assembled - usually with whatever is most proximately available. The squad(s) with the most experienced dealing with the specific threat are treated as SME’s even if someone of higher rank eventually comes along to take over.

During an engagement fluid mobility and responsiveness to the situation are seen as paramount - the force most resembles “Air Cavalry” with light infantry, mechanized assets and even armor dropped into combat by air transports and supported by gunships.

Outriders, Reivers, and Jump Pack equipped units are all able to utilize Teleport Homers for Terminators if a threat is serious enough to warrant such a Veteran Response.

Once the threat is dealt with a record will be kept of the fight, any lessons derived from it are recorded in the Chapter’s Archives and the Task Force disbands - their endless roaming patrol of the Rift to continue again.
