    I recall a video explaining an astartes faction (can’t recall which) who are renowned for their ‘brilliant tactics’ of focusing on taking out enemy leadership and getting behind enemy lines.

    This is a faction renowned for engaging in what should be a basic tactic, which as you can imagine doesn’t bode well for how dumb astartes would be in that case.

      Probably the Raven Guard or the Raptors, which are the sneaky chapter and the “what if space marines used modern tactics?” chapter, respectively.
