02 - Galrisian - Interceptors, The XI Legio Metalica Battlegroup with CDXXII imperial guard regiment intercept the ork invasion on Kepler Secundus way.
It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor of Mankind has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the vast Imperium of Man for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day so that he may never truly die.Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the Warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in His name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the ever-vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat to humanity from aliens, heretics, mutants -- and far, far worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be relearned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods."
The fleet Vittoria pierces the space-time, bending the quantum physics, the secrets of the stars and the fury of the Warp's gods. It's the Emperor that guide it. The immense ork fleet has come with few hours in advance, but this advantage is negated by the surprise effect of the arrival of the imperial fleet. Large imperial and adeptus mechanicus cargo ships begin their slow descent to the planet, full of their glorious armies, while immense ork landers do the same, pointing to the desert continent in their hands. The planet below dangles flashes and reddish glow, a sign of a relentless war activity. To protect the flow of reinforcements, the respective fleets deploy opposite each other, threatening. Ahead of them will start the battle, soon, long, grueling, until one of the two opponents will not withdraw defeated. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
Planet: Galrisian Sector: Sandor fields Relevance: Intercept the ork panzers division on the Kepler Secundus city route. Force: XI Legio Metalica Battlegroup with CDXXII imperial guard regiment . Danger Level: Medium.
The huge Imperial ships land close to the Arctic, where the climate makes ineffective the insidious ork weapons. One by one, the space ships land neatly releasing their load of soldiers, tanks, artillery... and Titans. In two weeks the Imperial forces are now deployed along three directives, starting to study the enemy maneuvers. Napoleork the Despot has just completed the landing of his massive army, the first and most colossal wave. An army that now traveling along the sea that divides the desert continent to Caligula. But suddenly, the Ork displaces all odds, and order the assault of the small town of Kepler secundus, even before his great Waaagh has come to the front. A move that forces the first outpost of the imperial reinforcement to abandon its global deploy maneuvers and head to intercept the attackers. Even before the massive reinforcements have been deployed, the war has already exploded angrily.

Sandor Sector, one, among hundreds of contested battered battlefields on the Planet. Thirty years of war, and half planet are now an apocalyptic sight disputed between outposts, smoking ruins and districts conquered, and then lost, and then reconquered by the orks dozens and dozens of times, in an attrition war arrived at its terminus, hopeless.
Now. Today as yesterday, Galrisian is only death.
