<< Veteran Princeps Dacoj, keep high the name of the Hell Angels! I'ts time to return Kepler Secundus to the Imperium of men. My red devils! Deus est Machina! The Omnissiah walks among us! Follow Him and lead us to victory! >>
Legate Carl Pastorius, Lord of the Legio Metalica H.A. division.

The symmetrical rhythm of the imperial guard march echoes among the ghost streets, dominated by the roar of the engines of their tanks and the immense, gigantic steps of the titans that shake the earth, while on the horizon comes a rattling cacophony. Like a drumroll forward the army of the imperium, like an avalanche the ork hordes. A meat grinder and a mower that are about to collide.

Finnich square is silent, abandoned, but it's a farce. From the opposite sides of the square, perched on two agglomeration of buildings, the XXII° infantry regiment and an ork big gunz mob are perched, patrolling the square. The lascannons and big gunz's barrels emerge scattered from the windows. Silence, mist, tension, and the forces behind them begin to move. And suddenly, explodes the hell. All guns fire wildly. The battery of griffon tanks, the traktor cannons, the deadly soopa guns as the pulsa rokkits, the lascannons. The roofs of the buildings begin to catch fire, and both sides count the fallen and the destroyed artillery pieces.

The corvus assault pod of Conqueror Mundorum warlord titan opens its gate, while the steel giant moves it to the ground. A bluish light emerges from inside, while the praetorian combat servitors platoon mount in.

On the opposite side, the deathskulls mob with their mekboy gargant march to Logar Square, putting the first foot on it while an huge, rattling battlefortress super heavy tank of the blood axes moves and occupies an huge building on the way of the space port. Warboss Zarstein, second in charge, and his retinue redeploy to better rule the other mobs.

Only one hero, by now, to face them all. Conqueror Mundorum warlord titan march to Logar square too, arriving at the middle of the access ramp. One, for defend the entire front. Only one, but it comes from Piombus.

When the cannonade ends, Finnich square is burning. The XXI° infantry regiment march it too, this time moving from the shadow of Implacabilis Vindictae and, rushing from the side access ramp, approaches the square. A regiment of infantry, supported by three leman russ and three hellhound tanks.

The third infantry regiment, the XVI°, composed as the XXI°, with a double move conquers Finnich square, and approaches the building where the big gunz are perched in. The fire is inaccurate, and although the storm is strong, only a few ork artillery pieces fall under the devastating blaze of the hellhounds.

IMG_4146

Fire, after fire, after fire this time Implacabilis Vindictae moves, reaching its XXI° infantry regiment on the side access ramp of Finnich square. A double move, and fire. Its gatling cannon and turbolaser destructor fire against the ork hordes far away, over the devastated eastern land, but only the volcano cannon vaporizes an ork dreadnought.

IMG_4150

And now, the ork hordes on the western front move, occuping easily the abandoned ground. The bad moon mob with a double move occupies the space port, a great place to keep under fire the imperial reinforcements that will come, a stronghold well defended, and a launching point for future encirclement maneuver to the Imperial rear supplying line.

IMG_4148

"Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!" Scream the orks while their Stompers march furious upon the western side access ramp to Logar square. "Stomp! Stomp! Stomp 'em all!!".
While the bad moons move with thier battlewagons and battlefortress, the ork stompa mob is now approaching the western square.

IMG_4151

The ground shakes again, when Verbum Caelestis goes forward, conquering step by step the access ramp in front of it. It arrives at the back of the XVI° infantry regiment, and opens fire: a multiple rocket launcher and a vulcano mega bolter roar their fury, bombing the high palace. The fire is inaccurate, but decisive to force the ork big gunz to leave the building and fall back on the bottom ground, in retreat.

IMG_4152

<< Doom! Kaboom! Doom! Kaboom! >> Aggro-Rolla Great gargant moves, hiding behind the building where the ork big gunz retreated. Zorba, da goff warlord doesn't rush, and order to the ork mob near him to wait, and consolidate their position. << Wait for da' reinforzin' boyz! Bastard! >> is da order that arrive on the eastern front. Finnich square is lost by now, and occupied in forces by the hummies...

...but on the weastern front, the situation is reversed. One titan, against all the approaching ork army, that with an encirclement maneuver is occuping Logar square and have take the abandoned space port.

IMG_4163

IMG_4164

The imperial reinforcements before at the horizon are now imminent, while the roar of the orks, attracted by the battle, and the booty, is getting closer. Soon, very soon, Daltan will be a seething cauldron of fire, screams and steel.
