"Captain Lorias of the Ultramarines 4th Company Speaking, Xenos we got last-minute information that you actually help the Imperium here so we will leave your people alone. We also already got a battle plan! We deployed right behind the Green Tide and fight our way straight through from behind to force the Orks to focus on us and give the Governor and the left-over PDF troops time to evacuate or re-group! If you have any way possible then let the Orks know that we are an easy target! Once the Orks focus on us we will slowly retreat towards 2 miles south of the city and start bombarding them with our Thunderhawks! Ventris out!" He barked to the Xenos contact known as "Flamewing" while firing his Bolt pistol on the nearest Orks, his Energy Sword already drawn in his other hand, starting to slice his way through the Orks along with a Squad of Assault Marines. His Seargents were not surprised by their Captain's decision to work with the Tau, after all they are perhaps the only reason why the Men of the Imperium are still standing, also an Inquisitor called Castus is cooperating with them, which should be reason enough to work with the Tau, at least for now. The Devastator squad was at the rear of the force, three quarters of them being equipped with Heavy Bolters, 3 with Plasma Cannons and the Seargent with a Laser Cannon, aiming at any vehicle he can spot or heavy armored Ork. The Tactical Marines fight right behind Squad Lorias, shooting high-precise rounds against the Ork hordes, giving everyone a shot in their head or heart. It was easy to see that these Marines had experience fighting Orks and how to get rid easily of them. It was just a matter of time till they would find the Waaghboss and end this Waagh for good. The Vae Victus, the 4th Company's Strike Cruiser gave a few last Orbital Bombardements shots against the Orks attacking from the North, East and West as the Ultramarines forces were deployed south of the City. In the meanwhile the Ultramarine Thunderhawks shot their last ammo against the Ork hordes and then made their way fast back to the Vae Victus to receive ammo and fuel reload to be ready when needed.
Zarias finally found his way back to the portal. He was angry, not only at the incompetence of his squadron, but also to Zon, who had told them nothing from the scale of this fight. He must have known that the gangs of Port Carmine were nowhere near enough to do anything effective here. If Zarias would ever find that man again, he would take his payment from him, with the extra interests. He turboboosted his reaver-jetbike through the closing portal, as the single surviving member. Well, not exactly. He couldn't leave without his best friend's severed head, after all, and his squadron's best shooter's torn leg, either. They would find their way back to his side with whole new bodies. He would form a new gang, and forget these silly fights of Realspace. Meanwhile, Zon had already found himself in new adventures... ((Keep up the RP, I am also leaving at this point (I'm not bored enough to imagine myself a huge raiding force in the field) but I will try to keep up with what's going on anyway))
(( I honestly find myself at a loss for how to take my story further. To be honest, I had not thought about my character in terms of story. I only came up with name, origin, and legion a week ago. What I've written so far, one could say it's been pulled out of the warp. I know I need to flesh out Thalias' personality, cause now he is kind of bland. Maybe a flashback to his time in the Iron Fists? I got like 3 or 4 good ideas, but choosing the best one is a nightmare. ))
*Warlord Michael Steelfang fired controled bursts into the orks felling the foul beasts these were small mobs that broke off from the main horde Steelfang had ordered his men into a defensive permimeter keeping these orks along with the occasional Imperial Guard partol attempting to restablish contact with this smaller but still large hive city while the Iron Hounds kept people out their mortal serfs mostly abhumans beastmen and orgyns rounding up the inhabitants of the city Steelfang's ship was an ever hungry beast consuming the weak. The lead tech officer for the Hounds a wise cracking squat named Rognis and his Ork assistant Skullclaw along with a small group of ork. Lootas stripped the city of all its valuable tech the ork WAAAAAGH was the perfect cover a few million more missing people wouldn't raise any suspicion Steelfang was more surprised that they hadn't detect The Executioner was an ancient and mighty vessel the sides of its blade like hull was lined with row upon row of weapon batteries all energy based such a vessel should never be sullied by macro cannons a intimidating forward mounted lance clusters completed its aresnal the hades-class heavy cruiser and avenger grand cruisers were but poor imitations of the Exectutioner and despite its long range punch it was still a brawler at heart getting in close and slugging it out in real void warfare. Steelfang voxed status update Gromagar the braying beastman replied we are on schedule my lord another 8 hours and we will have this city stripped clean of what we need*
I find this most enjoyable, didn't post till now because I felt I'd be intruding because I haven't read it all yet, but I'll see if I can contribute once I have read all of it. Looks fun!
Or mine D: Anyway, try to rev this back into gear: Commander Flamewing smiled, drooled, or whatever he could do with happiness. He just got word the Stealth-team had got the dark matter nova reactor and were bringing it back. Before he knew it, he would be stomping around in an XV-107. Yes, he'd show that Vixen and Krol'jas just how powerful he was, and to not f**k around with the Farsight Enclave's best commanders, soon to be in Farsight's bodyguard...if the mission went well. Going back on track to try and stall/kill Steelface, telling his kill-squad to aim at every Ork the could but Steelfang(Flamewing wanted to go into battle with him personally), he aimed at the Orks around him so Steelfang would be temporarily vulnerable to a Tau attack. Telling his vespids to aim the Neutron blasters at the strongest Orks, Flamewing gave the order..."FIRE!"
