Their companies are called "Brotherhoods." They are heavy on the bikes. They DO NOT have Dreadnoughts (Always surprised how many people don't know that).

Other than that link, there is not much more on the White Scars.

Going purely by the fluff, the vehicle that the White Scars use the most isn't the Space Marine Bike....


...it's the Boarding Torpedo! The Scars are Fleet Based patroling the space lanes around the Maelstrom, the logic being that so many Chapters have gone rogue in that area only a First Founding Legion which held honour in such high regard could be trusted to hunt down the renegade pirate scum who dishonoured the Imperium by their betrayal. To that end they participate mostly in ship to ship actions rather than open field campaigns.

Anyway, I'm rambling on; the Scars are followers of the Codex Astartes but favour lightning fast attacks. Deep-Striking Terminators, Bikes and Drop-Pods are the order of the day as are Predators minus the Side Sponsons (which are pointless now in 5th Ed anyway).
