++ WARZONE SHEDIM DRIFTS ++

[Linnaeus]

Indeed, some caution is advised if even the Legio Titanicus has been stymied, i am planning a swift deployment and link up and rally their remaining Titans and support forces, a strong central firebase will be extremely useful in that regard.

[Linnaeus]

After a void war i know many of my Sons want to feel the wind in their faces once more, it will be good to fight here!

[Kirenn Lokkan]

"Come, my brothers. Enough words! These disgusting aliens will be shown what it means to face the true sons of the Emperor!"
"My legion will immediately assault their positions surrounding the Titan legions, we must break through to them. We may yet need their firepower!"

[Linnaeus]

I would suggest coordinating our searches and relief, my Legion will also be striking for the Titans first before assaulting the Eldar, i suspect their support will be welcome and their pride in need of soothing.

[De Carton Wiart]

A fine victory my brothers.

Your Lions advance at quite a pace; perhaps a more disciplined approach would've aided in keeping our losses at a minimum.

Let us mop up these filthy xenos and continue with our own advances; you have both been worthy of our father this day.

CURRENT STATUS OF WARZONE

FOUR FULL IMPERIAL EXPEDITIONARY FLEETS HAVE ENGAGED THE ELDAR.

LEGION III STAR LIONS
LEGION IV THEOVAN GUARD
LEGION XIX CELESTIAL CATECHISTS
LEGION XX ANVILLUS GUARD

THE STAR LIONS RACE TO RELIEVE THE TITAN LEGIONS DEPLOYING MOSTLY FAST MOVING RESOURCES.
ANVILLUS GUARD ALSO APPROACH THEIR LOCATION.

CRUSHED BETWEEN THE TWO LEGIONS A BREACH IS MADE IN THE ELDAR FORCES AND THE TITANS BREAKOUT.

THE THEOVAN GUARD AND CELESTIAL CATECHISTS DO THE MEAT OF XENOS SLAUGHTER TAKING A HIGH TOLL ON THE ELDAR AS THEY PROCEED TOWARDS THE WEBWAY GATE.

UTILIZING INTELLIGENCE FROM LINNAEUS A HEAVY COUNTER ATTACK IS EXPECTED. THE TITANS ARE THE ELDAR TARGET.

THE XIXTH AND XXTH LEGIONS BOTH FORTIFY AREAS TO CREATE A KILLZONE BUT ARE URGED TO KEEP A DISTANCE FROM THE TITANS BY LINNAEUS.

THE ELDAR COME IN GREAT NUMBERS FROM THE NEARBY CRAFTWORLD TO DELIVER A DECISIVE BLOW AGAINST THE IMPERIALS.

BUT THEY ARE CUT DOWN IN RIBBONS AGAINST THE GUNS OF THE FOUR LEGIONS WORKING TOGETHER. THE ELDAR FORCES ARE ALL BUT ANNIHILATED IN SYSTEM.

DESPITE THE WARNINGS OF THE ATTACKS THE TITANS WERE THE TARGET OF A MASSIVE ELDAR ALPHA STRIKE BEFORE THE IMPERIALS BROKE COVER. THIS RESULTED IN THE DESTRUCTION OF 5 WAR MACHINES OF THE LEGIO MORTIS.

LEGION FORCES TOOK NO ADDITIONAL CASUALTIES.

THEY WILL NOT FORGIVE THIS SOON.

//

DUE TO THE LURING OUT OF THE ELDAR FORCES THE BEACH HEAD LOCATION CAN BE IGNORED AND THE FINAL TWO LOCATIONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE.

[Kirenn Lokkan]

"Brothers, it seems we have done well. We all lament the losses dealt to the Legio Mortis but we have delievered a decisive blow against these aliens. I will take my legion onto this 'Craftworld' - and I will shatter this 'dome of crystal' like so much glass! Who is with me my brothers? For the Emperor!"

[Linnaeus]

Indeed those losses are unfortunate, such is the cost of battle however and i am sure the Princeps recognise the value of their sacrifice.

Intelligence tells me this Dome of Crystal seers is the very seat of the Xenos witches, i will take my Black Lions and purge this den of filth personally with you Brother.I would suggest the rest of you strike at the Webway nexus whilst our Legions ravage the rest of this Alien vessel.

[Aemon Gandarius]

Then that leaves this other Xenos construction for myself and our brother from the Theovan Guard.

CURRENT STATUS OF WARZONE

THREE FULL IMPERIAL EXPEDITIONARY FLEETS HAVE ENGAGED THE ELDAR.

LEGION III STAR LIONS
LEGION XIX CELESTIAL CATECHISTS
LEGION XX ANVILLUS GUARD

HUNGRY TO PURGE THE XENOS WITCHES THE STAR LIONS AND ANVILLUS GUARD RACE TO SHATTER THE DOME OF CRYSTAL SEERS.

THE XXTH LEGION USES ITS EXCELLENT KNOWLEDGE OF SIEGECRAFT TO BREACH A DIRECT LINE TO THE SANCTUARY OF THE WARLOCKS. SUPPORTED BY THE STAR LIONS WHEN THEY ENCOUNTER SIGNIFICANT RESISTANCE.

THUS IT IS KIRENN LOKKAN AND HIS ELITE GUARD WHO FIRST ENGAGE THE MOST POWERFUL PSYKERS OF THE SYSTEM.

OVERCOMING THEIR BODYGUARDS HE IS ONLY SLOWED WHEN THEY THROW THEIR ELDRITCH MIGHT.

THIS IS THE MOMENT LINNAEUS HAS BEEN WAITING FOR. STRIKING AN AMBUSH AS IF HIDDEN FROM THE FARSEERS HE BEGINS DISPATCHING THE WITCHES WITH RELATIVE EASE TO THEIR GREAT SURPRISE AND SHOCK.

SELFLESSLY HE SHIELDS LOKKAN FROM A DEADLY ELDRITCH STORM WHILST HIS OWN LIEUTENANTS BURN IN THE FLAMES OF THE WARP.
---------------------------

IN THE ELDAR WEBWAYS AEMON GANDARIUS MAKES A TELEPORT STRIKE INTO THE CAVERNOUS WEBWAY HALLS, AND IS IMMEDIATELY SET UPON BY THE ELITE DEFENDERS OF THIS PLACE. THE WRAITHGUARD AND KNIGHTS TRY TO PUSH THE DEFENDERS BACK BUT AEMON WOULD NOT BE STOPPED.

WHEN THINGS LOOK DESPERATE THE ELDAR SUMMON FORTH THEIR LAST HOPE. AN AVATAR OF KHAINE IMMERGES TO DEFEND THIS CRUCIAL LOCATION.... THE XIXTH ARE FINALLY STOPPED.

------------------------------

THERE CRAFTWORLD IS NEARLY DEFEATED. THE HIGHEST SEERS OF THE CRAFTWORLD LIE BURNT AND BROKEN.

AEMON HAS PREVENTED THE REINFORCEMENTS FROM THE WEBWAY FLANKING THE OTHER LEGIONS BUT COULD NOT DESTROY THEM BY HIMSELF.

THE ELDAR ARE NOW FIGHTING DESPERATELY FOR SURVIVAL. THE WEBWAY IS THE ONLY HOPE THEY HAVE.
