The Decapitation Strike

Raven Guard Rites of War :: Table of Contents
Codex Supplement: Raven Guard, p. 9

When Stealth and subtlety are not enough, and the Raven Guard require a tyrant to be struck down quickly and without mercy, they form a force dedicated to the mission of a decapitation strike. The planned force is a rapid assault force dedicated to overwhelming enemies swiftly in service of the desired assignation at any cost. Such savage strikes are like a murder of crows descending on a foe, and only carrion is left in their wake as they descend upon the hated target.
