Don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but there is an EC RoW where the Traitors sent out hunting parties to hunt down Istvaan survivors and cause general destructiveness. The key component of the RoW was its maneuverability and as a result, bikes and jetbikes were supposed to be the primary units. It's only one aspect of the larger Legion, but it does seem highlight their penchant for rapid, well-organized attacks meant to achieve tactical superiority and annihilate the enemy.

Nothing about Jetbikes in the Rite of war at all.

 

It's shattered legions, so opponents permission only and is focused around recon squads, seeker squads and getting extra victory points for killing units with sweeping advance, but you can't score from objectives lol.

 

It's super awesome fun, but not something to build your collection around.

Oh? I thought I read something about Bikes? But still, they do seem rather fitting with the "hunter-killer" theme.

 

And yeah, it is rather unconventional so I'd argue that if you want to build it, either do so as a secondary(possibly tertiary) force, or you really need to commit.

 

As for opponent's permission, eh. Using a Heresy army at all requires opponent's consent. Can't imagine to many opponents saying no to fighting an army that can't even take objectives.

 

Although the intent of my post was to point out the theme of the RoW, not suggest building a force around it.

@ Da Once & Future Git - I never had a play style in mind. It was born from a couple concepts. I wanted a Legion that would look into spiritual perfection/absolution and plenty of knightly grandeur. EC just seemed to fit.
