Imperial Navy Breachers bring 11-12 operatives to the fight, specializing in aggressive close-quarters combat. Their Void Armor makes them resilient against Blast/Torrent weapons, while Breach and Clear lets you chain activations for devastating alpha strikes. With shotguns and melee weapons, they excel within 6", supported by tough Endurants (2+ save, 11 wounds) and fast C.A.T. Units (8" move). Use Attack/Defence Orders to boost offense or defense, and overwhelm objectives with their high model count and synergistic ploys. Get in close and dominate the breach!
