The Atlas is always kept in reserve during battle until it is needed and when it enters the battlefield to tow a stricken tank it is always protected by friendly units until it is clear of the fight, so the Atlas is only equipped with a hull-mounted Heavy Bolter for general protection. The Atlas uses the same Mars Alpha Pattern chassis as the Leman Russ main battle tank, but with the turret ring and armour plating removed and the engine overcharged to provide more power. Warhammer 40K Darktide Review - Left To Shred The tanks are given out as needed to the various companies.

The Atlas is mainly used to recover damaged or immobilised tanks from the front where they can be repaired, but it can also be used to simply move a vehicle out of the way of other vehicles, and to move other obstructions. If a vehicle is completely destroyed, and beyond repair, it is stripped of usable equipment and unfired ammunition, its Machine Spirit commended to the Emperor, and then its chassis is left to rust in peace. The large spade on the rear of the Atlas is used to keep the tank from being dragged backwards by the weight of its target. Heavily damaged vehicles can be placed on trailers and hauled away by a Trojan to be repaired at a better-equipped facility. The Atlas uses a powerful rear-mounted crane to tow vehicles out of the line of fire and to the field repair shop, where they can be fixed and sent back into combat. The Atlas is an armoured recovery vehicle based on a tank chassis that is used by the forces of the Astra Militarum and possibly other Imperial forces such as Planetary Defence Forces and the armed forces of the Inquisition to recover damaged or immobilised armoured vehicles during and after a battle.
