As he saw the explosion and one of Athenallas arrive Regos felt that this was a possible turning point in the battle agaisnt these xenos. Readying his flaming chain sword he moved forward in a attempt to stop the eldar from cutting down the allied imperials that were with him bringing his mighty blade around to meet the Dire avengers that threatened them. OOC attacking dire avenger with flaming chain sword.
@seabass "So be it brother," Claudius said to Tellon over the vox. He gripped the large hammer tightly as he engaged his jump pack. He threw a frag grenade into the midst of the Shining Spears. He then brought the thunderhammer down towards the Shining Spears, like a meteor from the heavens. His hope was to break up the group so they were less effective.
~~ Barnassus Campaign - Battle of Ladimur - North ('Left') Side ~~ @lord-watchman | @Valonox Silva fought vigilant as his mentor taught him, back with the other Blood Watchmen. His maw opened and fire emit, but this time the enemy was prepared and jumped in several directions. However the immaterial flames still found their ways as if they had a will of their own to creep on the armors of the Dire Avengers and cling to them, sure to burn them. However just as one ran towards the Librarian to kill him, a salvo of las shots came from the side and penetrated a tiny weak spot between chest and neck, flying right through the neck of the Eldar and kill him on the spot as his lungs collapsed. As the Librarian looked, he saw a young kid with a Las-Gun in uniform, probably just 13-16 years old. The massacre continued as the Fire Dragons killed by the dozens, but soon the Eldar were too few and had to retreat, just a few more... Combat Summary: Spoiler: OOC: Silva - Flame Breath 5 hits, Ignore 1 Armor. 1 Target, 2 hit AoE around initial target.

Fellow Imperial troops that split their fire with the street Eldar and those in the building managed to fell another Eldar, a Dire Avenger this time. Similar to their mirroring flank, the Eldar were slowly drained to death - even though the casualties were high.

Before those finishing moves there was a lot of blade whirling, evading and balancing act. But the Warp Spiders stood no chance to the Techmarine who fought not just for victory, but his very craft! With the enemy destroyed, the craft straightened out again and could either do another attack vector, or land somewhere safely so that the two Astartes may join on the thick battlefield. OOC - Enemy Status - Within Thunderhawk: Spoiler Warp Spider #1 - 3/6 | 3 Armor Warp Spider #2 - 4/6 | 3 Armor Conditions: Each has 6 hits and hit on 9,10,11,12 only and ignore 2 Armor.

The Squad leader made an example by shooting a plasma-glob right in the center of a Shadow Spectre, leaving a gaping hole in him before the corpse crashed and detonated, due to jetpack malfunctions. Claudius followed with a legendary placement of a Frag grenade, killing two in the process before taking off into the sky and slam one right into the ground and cause him to detonate as well with his mighty Fudge Breakah, resembling the ancient artifact of the Iron Hands that was wielded by their Primarch. Farith, presented his wisdom of war as he switched his weapon, placing a single shot right between the eyes of a flying Shadow Spectre, piercing the helmet and detonating the head within. Then the Striking Scorpions wave came... Imperial troops shot at them like crazy but their speed was... Overwhelming. It was like they could see the projectiles coming in slow-motion or something as most of them simply danced through them. Sure, by the time they arrived in close combat six of them were dead, but any other enemy would have lost all of their melee troops. The Eldar were insanely talented, a formidable foe indeed. As they started to hack apart at the infantry, including the Deathawtch Kill-Team, an incarnation of a Sky Devil arrived in the shape of a Dark Angel. He landed, placed a shot into a Striking Scorpion and sliced his Chainsword at him, not killing the alien but hurting it! In response the elite melee units dug their Chainswords into the newcomer, imperial soldiers and Tellon's kill-team. They had to repel them immediately, else-wise the Eldar could escape or stage whatever other plant they my have as the main army was now bound in melee and could not advance really while being hacked apart.

Alderson calmly remaglocked his weapons and went back to flying the craft. "Zuriel, get on a gun. Lets make another pass or two then join on foot. We need to tip the odds more in our favor." Alderson piloted so they were heading to Tellon's fight. " After this pass, jump and take out those grav tanks. I will land and join on foot. " He was gonna miss the flight but it was a battle to close for much more air support. OOC: Damn he did well in that fight. Points to Alderson.
Vahn pushed over the trench next to the demi-god he wanted to die next to a god rather just be another man in a trench. Once he was next to the Demi-god he would ask "May I stand and die next you lord astartes!" As he fired another salvo at the Dire Avengers
@Uriel1339 His Diagnoster Helmet was flaring up with updates on three brothers: Silva, Farith, and Regos. All their vitals were reading out with excessive wounding. Regos could definitely use his jumppack to get over to him while Athenallas engaged, as he saw several sides of the building suddenly explode via a frag explosion. Brother Silva however, had to hold his front without withdraw. Farith for the moment, was the closest, and thus would receive medical aid. While moving forward to where Farith was, Tellon brought out his bolt pistol to get several shots out there at the enemy striking scorpions that were attacking the penal legionnaires, whilst preparing his new powersword to counter-attack any striking scorpions that get close. (@EvicusDasan1 ) "Unleash your next Volley, Brother. But remain as still as possible. I do not wish to cause further damage than the enemy has already done." Action: +2WL for Farith! Attack: Bolt Pistol (4) [2] [Ignores 1 Armor] x2 with quickfire rule. Against striking scorpions. Defense: Power Weapon (5) [1] [Ignores 2 Armor] against any melee attacker that gets too close. (OOC: Yeah, I know. Not as effective as plasma gun, but I really don't want another explosion to the FEHSS at this most crucial point in the battle. and I don't want to crit fail with my flamer and roast my own troops.) Orders: Penal Legionnaires and Skitarii fight on! Autocannons target the Striking Scorpions Leman Russ still target the Eldar Vehicles.
"You may stand there but you wont die" as the librarian spoke he looked around at the battle feild and with his mind tried to pick up a chunk of ruble to throw at the fire dragons "you saved me now il let you see what an angel of death can do" (Ooc i belive it is assail im ysing to try and throw the ruble)
@TechCaptain Zuriel stood still for a moment before bursting into laughter. He quickly regained his composure, but he still chuckled a little. "By the Primarch Alderson! Is this what happens to everyone that messes with your machines?" He slapped him on the back and nodded, clearly impressed by his prowess. "As you say Brother, I'll make it so." He quickly jumped back on the Dorsal Cannon and did a quick scan over the battlefield. His aim locked into the approaching group of Wasps. @seabass @matt23 @EvicusDasan1 @York "This Zuriel, danger close. I repeat, danger close. Death comes from the sky for the wasps." OOC: dorsal cannon on approaching wasps Need to get Zuriel on the ground soon so he can make some kills
South ('Right') Side The eldar seemed to be congregated within a single building on the right flank and Athenallas shook his head at the idiocy of aliens as he loaded a frag missile and opened fire, knowing that the interior walls would contain and amplify the power of the attack. "Foolish creatures." [OOC: Frag Missile (7+1 hits - AoE) against Howling Banshees/Fire Dragons.]
Farith grunted in acknowledgement and unleashed a salvo of bolter fire at the nearest green eldar he saw.
