I'll get to work on some disposable meatshields guardsmen right away.

Bresind 8th 'Devils' Regiment.
Regimental Rivalry: 41st Munwil Heavy Infantry
Formed during the later stages of the ancient Horus Heresy some ten thousand years ago, the Bresind 8th hails from the notoriously lethal death world of Bresind in the Yseran subsystem. During the Horus Heresy, they acted as highly effective and lethal siege infantry, though not the gruelling death matches that a siege usually presents itself as. Instead of fighting toe to toe, the men of the 8th would instead find any way they could into an enemy fortification before brutally killing those inside, or otherwise aiding the Imperial forces on the outside. The history of the regiment is a relatively vaunted one, as the entirety of Bresind's population has a dreaded reputation when it comes to their willingness to survive by any means. Though they also famed for a sort of, amiability when around other guard regiments, perhaps the ingrained instincts that comrades in arms must be protected at all costs.
Equipped much like the standard siege infantry squad - the extra equipment aiding them when it came to breaching and otherwise surviving, each man is expected to undergo fearsome trials before induction into the 'Devil's regiment. It can be anything from surviving on Bresind without aid for several weeks, up to fighting one of the many predators the jungles house. However, this leaves the regiment relatively small meaning the men are often equipped into other, larger, guerilla forces.
