Squad #2 - Fortifactors @TechCaptain & @Vulpas | "Regos, Alderson! Move up with the Skitarii Alpha! Push back the xenos filth!" Athenallas scanned the sky as he loaded a krak missile into his launcher, dearly wishing for a guided missile that would track a target on its own. Catching sight of one of the eldar craft the Devastator Marine watched it for a moment, trying to anticipate its movements, before huffing and shouldering his launcher, pressing down on the trigger a second later. [OOC: Krak Missile: (13 hits, 1 target) against a Falcon. If I can.]
ADDENDUM! (Kind of forgot to mention that....) Squad #2 - Fortifactors @Vulpas & @TechCaptain The Striking Scorpion was at the mercy of the two Deathwatch Marines as Regos blocked the Chainsword and Alderson managed to dig his Omnissian Axe just deep enough in the abdomen to send the Eldar flying backwards through the sky, landing on his back with his blade out of his hand. When the Alien attempted to grab it, the Techmarine simply stepped on the wrist to stop the alien, pointing his other blade at the neck of the Xenos. Whatever they wanted to do with him, he was a prisoner of war now. "KHAELA MENSHA KHAINE WILL HAVE YOUR HEAD FOR YOUR BLIND IGNORANCE, MON'KEIGH!" It spat at them.
Alderson shrugs at the xeno filth. Using his Servo Arm as a very strong third arm. He grabs and somehow binds the Eldar. "Regos go on ahead. I will make way as Athenallas ordered. " He then fired his bolt pistol into the Eldar mass using his eye to sight down his barrel better. OOC: Bolt pistol Attack against random Eldar that isnt my prisoner.
"Affirmitive. Brother." Regos said to his brother.he looked to the the Eldar before leaving as it spat at them. "I care not what comes for my head Xeno, I have a duty to do." Regos Realizing it understood him when it spoke the same language. The assault marine began moving towards the skitari alpha to aid them in there push. Choosing to head by ground he sprinted towards the skitari alpha Formation using his bolt pistol he began firing at the Xenos as he got into range.
~~ Defense of Forge World Barnassus - Outside Flank ~~ @Avenging-Angel & @TechCaptain The Krak Missile wooshed across the air and hit a Falcon tank that just evaded a Leman Russ shot during one of it's swoops, but brought itself right into the missile's trajectory, hitting the right engine, causing the craft to lose it's anti-grav and drop like a rock from the sky. Unfortunately it landed right on top of one of the Leman Russ Tanks, detonating both tanks in a violent explosion that took more tolls on both sides. Alderson fired with his Bolt Pistol, but due to the long range was rather inefficient, but still he managed to hit a Banshee who leaped high in the sky right into the head, causing her to drop to the floor without raising her blade again. The duo had now complete available movement as they were capable of getting behind enemy line to check for reinforcements, or go for one of the buildings in attempt to stop the sniper tank hunters. They were not valuable enough targets to keep an Eldar force with them. ~~ Defense of Forge World Barnassus - Outside Bridge ~~ @Vulpas Regos easily could reach the Alpha Skitarii as the Humans started to push back the enemy, further distancing themselves from the shadow the Warhound Titan threw with the sun setting slowly behind him, in the west. The Skitarii threw a Frag Grenade in the enemy lines as Regos joined him, supporting with his Bolt Pistol that took the life of five Guardians. "Astartes! We are pushing them back! But they still continue to destroy the main body of our force. Any suggested course of action? You are the Alien Extermination Specialist here, after all." Zorg inquired as the Skitarii moved onward, shredding them. ~~ Defense of Forge World Barnassus - Manufactorum ~~ @lord-watchman "I see you are not afraid of a fight. Then we shall see what prevails, Librarian. Fire, or Ice? You shall in whatever afterlife you Mon'keigh have forever remember and curse the name of Warlock Narsumyr." The Warlock replied as he focused his own powers, while his opponent started to blaze into manifested fury and rage. The two psykers started to run towards one another, blade clashing against staff. Both at the peak of their capabilities as they tried to find an opening in one another's fighting style, but lacking to do so as both were aware and concentrated. Where the Eldar was faster, the Astartes had the advantage of range and length of his weapon. Where the Astartes struck with strength, the Eldar used his agility to either evade or deflect the blow in it's entirety. After their bouts they both built up distance again, circling one another. "You have been trained well. And it appears you are even around my own age, what does that make you? 250 perhaps 300 years? Impressive what a such primitive species such as yours can be capable of, if facing the fear of death due to age. But it makes it even more so pathetic that your kind has to resort to enhancements, due to your bodies' flaws. Whereas we Eldar are so much more superior, by birth, capable of focusing on training and finding ourselves the very day we are born. But not humans, no. You are only warmongers who have to breed a special kind of warriors like yourself! With no desire of peace, or self-growth, only who can bring the bigger trophy home! And such thinking makes you no better than the brutish Orks, which is why Mymeara will extinct the both of your species!" He pointed his blade at the Librarian. OOC: FYI - Psychic Abilities count as 2H use from henceforth. So that means either you do 1H melee attack + pistol attack. One Psychic Ability. Or a 2H melee attack. Wasn't specified in rules, but yeah. We didn't had a psyker until now. As an Epistolary though the Psychic Abilities will be 1H. So I grant you (and the Warlock) as exception, just this time, to cast a spell and make an attack ^^ Also I modified the Special Condition. So that per turn, as long as someone hits, the other one loses 1 armor until the end of it.

Almost immediately a bright red glow could be seen in the atmosphere, just as a vox came through from Lucia Kane herself. "Target acquired, Kill-Team. Better clear the area, fire imminent." And just as the vox closed the bright fireball from the skies came much closer, much faster. The lance of the mighty battleship pierced with ultimate destructive force through the skies which looked as it even split the sky itself into two halves, one being bright blue, the other glowing in an intense red. The Orks halted their movement and only could look in awe before it hit the center of their army and after that was just one single huge explosion. A wall of dust emit in a wide radius in all directions, the heat and force was felt as far as the Astartes' defensive line. Everyone had to brace themselves and cling on whatever they could to not be blown away, despite the heavy Power Armor. Sight was completely compromised as the dust started to settle, and the heat started to normalize. What was once a rather flourished plain was now just a desolated wasteland, however... What?! They still moved?! "WAAAGGGHHHHHH!!!!" The Wagghboss roared in pride as suddenly a heavy barrage of the Baneblade unloaded and blew up a Rhino almost instantly. "COUNTER ATTACK! DESTROY WHATEVER IS LEFT OF THEM! REDEMPTION AND VENGEANCE, AGAINST THE BOYS! COMMAND SQUAD AND DEATHWATCH, ON ME! FOR THE LION! FOR VICTORY!" Sariel roared and rose his Power Sword, pointing it to the sky as he started to run forwards to mobilize the attack. Immediately Bolter Fire and the remaining Rhino's Missile Launcher fired into the Ork masses while advancing into them, there was no fear of the Greenskins, nor would they get away alive!

Farith felt his choler rise. The call of the Lion had stirred the very beast inside him. Victory was nigh. "For Redemption." He muttered to himself as his own personal warcry and waited for orders from his acting commander. OOC: work today, will follow all orders Tellon gives me. Just don't get Farith killed Feel free to bot me @seabass
Silva laughed "im closer to 400 now" as he spoke he launched himself foward in an atempt to strike with the staff using a 2 handed stance hoping the fire would give him assistance (Ooc i did say in the last post that he was waiting for after the eldar to attack before i atacked i meant it as next move would be my atack due to me thinking it would take a full combat action)
Tellon's HUD was filled with dust from the bombardment for but a moment, but his armor held. As the dust settled, the ork horde still lived, though heavily reduced. Including the Damn Waaaghboss, and that baneblade. Someone has to take it out, a Leman Russ was one thing, but a baneblade has the firepower to take out a whole squad in one blast. What could take it out? all he had was one krak grenade and a plasma grenade, that couldn't be enough to......The Munitions, throw the krak grenades at the munitions of the baneblade. Tellon used his only good hand to vox for Zuriel, (@Keidivh ) "Brother Zuriel, return to my position, I have an Idea to take out that baneblade." He turned to Brother Farith, (@EvicusDasan1 ) "Get ready to hand over your grenades to Brother Zuriel." As Farith prepared his few grenades, Tellon turned to healing once more, focusing on Brother Pulim. @Uriel1339 Action: +2 WL to Tactical Marine Pulim. (OOC: Healing is basicly all tellon can do right now, his pistol ain't gonna do jack shit against that waaaghboss, even if he scores all hits with it.)
Zuriel couldn't help but stare in awe and pride as he witnessed the bombardment. "DEATH FROM THE SKY!" He bellowed as ruin was brought upon the horde. This moment ended when he saw the Baneblade destroy a Rhino. Zuriel prepared to launch himself into the super heavy tank when Tellon voxed him. Zuriel could feel his mind scream for blood, to launch himself into the glorious bloodletting, but he was not a beast. "As you say Brother Tellon, moving to your position!" With that Zuriel flew back to his comrades, ensuring the magnoculars were secured still.
Alderson raised an eyebrow since around them is secure. Knowing that getting the heavy weapons on their side would be advantageous. He fire one last Bolt Pistol around at a random bridge Eldar. "Regos, I have an idea. Lets get that Thuderhawk back up and show them death from the skies. See if we can get an extra gunner from the Skitarii. He made way to the thunderhawk to secure his prisoner and get it ready to fly. @Vulpas OOC: Bolt pistol Attack against random eldar.
