    You drag Tybalt off of Rodwen and put him on the small charger on the dropship which kinda looks like a crate with thin metal gate. He lets out a soft, metallic whine, pawing several times at the gate before laying down and setting his head on his paws, moping. He gave you the puppy eyes, but he could stand to be in the crate for a little while.

    The Farseer shakes her head several times, rubbing the cheek where the dog licked her. She looked pretty damn mad. "Why does it shock you when it tries to show affection? Why does a machine show affection in the first place? Why did you pick that shape? Why is it so cute!?"

    Her eyes were crackling with psykic energy now but she didn't lash out at the dog, instead sitting back in her seat and taking a deep breath.

    A voice came over the radio. "We're all ready Madame Inquisitor. Where do you want us?"

    You must defend the capital city

    You have 5 anti infantry squads (4 w/ flamers, 1 w/ heavy flamers), 3 Anti vehicle squads (1 w/ rockets, 1 w/ meltas, 1 w/ plasma cannons), 3 defensive squads (1 w/ sniper rifles, 1 w/ heavy bolters, 1 w/ multimeltas) 1 Fast attack squad (Florencia's elite seraphim), 10 standard troops (3 w/ bolters and 7 w/ lasguns), 7 medical squads (1 elite squad, 6 regular), and 5 hammer units (You+Filigree+servo skulls+Tybalt, Farseer+Warlocks, Galatea+retinue, Florencia+retinue, Tessa+celestians)

    The Retinues are all equipped with 2 meltas and a second sergeant with a power weapon.

    You have 3 Fast Attack squads (sentenel), 6 transports (immolators, rhinos, chimeras, Repressor), Light tanks (basalisk, Exorcist), heavy tanks (4 leman Russ [2 Demolishers & 2 Standard]), and 2 super heavy tanks (Baneblade, shadowsword)

    (you * technically* have more troops but they are going to different parts of the planet)

    You can deploy your tanks in any of the colored areas on the grid. >>12544807 each color represents a different part of the city.

    ***

    The city center (dark blue) is a single cluster of ornate buildings very close together. It is important that these don't break. They are tall with many floors, windows, and balconies. They are also very old.

    Advantages: Stack troops for concentrated firepower. Small location at the center so its a kind of "choke point"
    Disadvantages: low menuverability, flamers can damage buildings. Only room for Rhino body vehicles. Sentinels also OK. Basilisks cant see their targets over surrounding buildings

    ***

    Inner City (med blue) is densely packed. The buildings are shorter and newer

    Advanteges: Narrow streets make for good troop choke points. Very maze-like (we are assuming you know the layout) perfect for barricades and traps. Especially those that pour stuff from above. good place for basilisks
    Disadvanteges: Little maneuverability. Anyone in CC will be at a disadvantage. Flamers can damage buildings

    ***

    Outer City (lighter blue) is far more open with 2 story buildings and wide streets.

    Advantages: Good maneuverability and cover. Good for flanking and setting up barricades and traps
    Disadvantages: No choke points

    ***

    Outskirts (lightest blue) Just starting to develop. Very open with some cover.

    Advantages: Great menuverability and good setting for flamers
    Disadvantages: little cover

    ***

    Outside (green) unbuilt. Mostly flat with tallish grass. some trees.

    Advantages: Flat and open nowhere for enemy to hide.
    Disadvantages: Flat and open nowhere for you to hide. Retreat is almost impossible here.

    Sentinels are often fielded in squadrons as scouts or flank support. They can carry a variety of heavy weapons and bring high levels of power and maneuverability together in one place. They are lightly armored however, and are susceptible to small arms fire.
    The Chimera is the standard armored personnel carrier of the Imperial Guard.
    It can carry a variety of heavy weapons in its gun turret, such as heavy bolters, Autocannon and Heavy Flamers, although the Multi-Laser is the most common weapon. It also mounts a hull-mounted Heavy Bolter or Heavy Flamer, and 6 hull-mounted Lasguns on the sides which can be fired from the passenger compartment, making it akin to a modern infantry fighting vehicle. It can carry up to 12 men.
    Immolators The Immolator is a specialized assault/transport vehicle used by the Sisters of Battle in the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop game. It is used to carry small squads of sisters into the thick of battle.
    The Immolator is a simple variant of the Razorback armoured transport commonly used by the Space Marines. Like the Razorback, the Immolator uses the same body as the Rhino armoured personnel carrier and thus has similar stats to both vehicles. The Immolator could be armed with either twin-linked Heavy Flamers against infantry or twin-linked Multi-meltas against vehicles, along with twin-heavy bolters
    Rhino-The Rhino is armed with a storm bolter and, unlike many other Imperial vehicles, does not have a rotatable turret mounting. It can also carry a pintle mounted storm bolter.
    The armour on a Rhino is quite weak, but this reduces its weight and allows it to travel quickly across the battlefield. Its rear armour is almost the same as its front and side, meaning any shots hitting from any angle have a good chance of penetrating. The capacity of a Rhino is twelve Power Armoured warriors
    >> Anonymous 10/23/10(Sat)14:46 No.12545662
    >>12545621
    The Repressor is a variant of the Rhino, converted to extend the transport compartment and adding firing slits for the passengers' weapons. It mounts a Storm Bolter in a limited arc cupola, a pintle-mounted Heavy Flamer, and a bulldozer blade on the front to clear obstacles, such as rioting scum.
    The Basilisk is a self-propelled howitzer. It mounts one of the longest-ranged weapons available to a standard Imperial Guard regiment, the Earthshaker Cannon. Basilisks utilize the standard Chimera chassis, but give up the passenger compartment and turret, leaving it with the hull mounted Heavy Bolter and the cannon.
    Exorcist- The Exorcist missile tank fulfils the role of long-range fire support for the Sisters of Battle and Ordo Hereticus. It has decent range and varying armor piercing ability
    The Leman Russ Battle Tank is a very basic and easily replicable design that retains strength and versatility while sacrificing comfort and ease of use for efficiency. The tank is very robust with a reinforced cast plasteel hull and turret, likely to withstand most incoming fire, especially on the forward facing armour. The side armour is similarly heavy, but rear armour is much lighter however.
    The Leman Russ Demolisher is a specialist Siege Tank designed for short-range bombardment
    >> Anonymous 10/23/10(Sat)14:47 No.12545672
    >>12545662
    Shadowsword- The Shadowsword is an Imperial Guard titan-hunter super-heavy vehicle. It is designed on the same technology as the Baneblade except it is armed with a Volcano Cannon. Much of the tank is taken up with the internal capacitors required to fire the weapon and is also equipped with advanced logic engines and targeting systems to make each shot count. Each shot is sufficiently powerful to shear off a titan's arm or leg but requires a good deal of time to recharge. For defence, the Shadowsword has the standard Heavy Bolter sponson armament.
    It has difficulty operating alone due to the slow rate of fire for its primary weapon, and as such is usually deployed with lighter vehicles for defence. These other vehicles can also be used in an assault on a titan, for example drawing off fire and draining the titan's void shields before the Shadowsword delivers the killing blow.
    The Baneblade Super Heavy Tank is the primary super-heavy tank of the Imperial Guard, and one of the largest and oldest armored fighting vehicles in Imperial service. Massively armed, the standard Baneblade complement includes a turret-mounted Mega Battle Cannon with a coaxial Autocannon, three twin-linked Heavy Bolters (one sponson-mounted on either side, and one turret mounted on the front hull slope), two turret mounted Lascannons on either side, directly above the side sponsons, and lastly, a fixed-forward hull-mounted Demolisher cannon, along with pintle mounted weapon and hunter seeker missiles

    REPOSTAN DEUX
    My ideas, somewhat organized.

    Standard/Heavy weapons Troops to the Outer City as well. Chimeras/Rhinos/Sentinels as well.

    BG Alpha: the Baneblade....it gets Florencia, the Immolators, the Elite Seraphim and the 2 retinues as support -and enough Chimeras to move them as needed.
    They go to the Outskirts to hammer on stuff and rove around.

    BG Bravo: -the Russes. They're there to counter anything sudden, and to bail out alpha or the Shadowsword as needed.
    They also get Tessa as well for protection against infantry attacking in CC and for pouncing on heavy weapons teams.

    The Shadowsword gets socked away in the Inner City as a crisis deployment tool.

    Transports: -Battlegroup Alpha needs a bunch of them. The medics are taking a couple as ambulances probably.
    The rest'll be parcelled to their squads, although....fuck the Codex -if we have any Repentia THEY get Rhinos so they can survive to make maximum contact.

    Medicals teams set up in the Inner City, with the Elites located at the City Center.

    Heh heh. Rodwen and company set up in the City Center as well as our nastiest fallback surprise.
    Anything not assigned awaits deployment with us at the Command Center.

    If we've got any demo teams or decent equivalents we can rig buildings to fall to cover retreats and to avalanche enemy units as well.

    60 or 70 percent of our troops are either guardsmen or crewed by them....
    Let's just hope the enemies' forces are lead by Abaddon. I think he still hasn't found his arms.

    Rawr, self-quotation is literacy Wincest!

    As for expected...well....expendables, check. Cultists, Blood Pact, whatever.
    Chaos Marines, probably. Oh joy.
    Demons appearing suddenly and at the worst possible moments -thank the GE the xenos are cooperating.
    (On that note let's try to get Rodwen to use a rough tactical slate so if she feels Warp Rapage she can at least give a location.)
    And maybe Armor, which really would be the least of our worries oddly enough as we've got plenty of anti-armor assets and favorable terrain for ambushing it.

    Split the anti-armor forces up with the Tatical Sisters.
    We are NOT fighting this shit like the IG. We're long on infantry and light on tanks so we're pounding with artillery at long range, forming mobile tank groups, and saving the Sisters for short range firefights at which they excel.

    2 standard troops with lasguns protect the medics in the back.
    1 standard troop with lasguns gets to patrol each of the sectors currently not under attack.
    The anti-infantry squads and the standard leman russes get stationed in the outskirts.
    The defensive squads get stationed in the inner city, except the snipers. They'll start in the outer city and should relocate as soon as the enemy gets too close.
    >> Anonymous 10/23/10(Sat)15:19 No.12545983
    The demolishers are to be deployed in the inner city, along with a lasgun standard troop each.
    The shadowsword is to be held back until targets for its main gun are sighted.
    Immolators should be deployed on the outskirts.
    >> Anonymous 10/23/10(Sat)15:21 No.12546008
    3 ofthe medical squads have to serve on the front while 3 other always stay one area behind to treat the wounded. The one squad left has the job to transport the wounded from the front to the squads in the back. They can have 1 transport of their choice to do this.
    The artillery gets stationed as far behind as we can while still allowing them to fire on the enemy. They should relocate at the first sign of trouble.
    Florencia's unit will be used as a fire brigade, supporting our troops wherever they're needed.

    Alright

    So, strategy wise:
    I think we should deny the chaos forces their superiority of numbers by mucking up most entrances to the city and creating choke points for the others- deny them their strength of numbers in the city.
    Out of the city, we should be looking to harry the enemy- striking quickly and not getting pinned down.
    The question is- how much time do we spend outside the city before it becomes bogged down with chaos troopers?

    The only really mobile things we have are the Sentinels and our troop transports. Great for scouting but not for a sustained fight. I'd still prefer to have the walkers scout the advancing enemies and retreat after some brief harassment, leading them into our designated kill-zones.

    Depends.
    BG Alpha should (big *should*) work pretty well outside for as long as it can. It's composition is solid for smashing stuff, and it can coordinate with the artillery.

    Sister Callaphas stood at her post overlooking the throng of Pillgrims as they slowly shuffled their way through the shrine's causeway. She looked for any sign of heretics infiltrating the crowd -- but there was none.

    Callaphas wished someone would talk to her, but of course, few heretics would be so foolish as to approach a Sister directly. Was it her wide, man-like face? Her scar? Or her swarthy shoulders exaggerated further by her armor? Or was it her great stature, standing a head above most men, heightened to such a degree by her soaring heart reaching towards the Emperor?

    She heard that Sister Orphillia purged a cabal of heretics -- however, it sounded more like the Sister went to whore herself out at the first miner's pub she came across then found heresy one way or the other to cover up her misdeeds. There will be NO place in the Emperor's host for whores!

    Just as Callaphas was considering Sister Orphillia's demise, she saw someone approaching her from out of the corner of her eye; a moment of excitement was lost when she recognized the figure as her guard commander. An inch taller than even Callaphas with two scars even wider than her own, the Sister was clearly her superior in both martial prowess and devotion. "Any sign of heresy today?

    Callaphas replied immediately. "None, if there are heretics today, they are cagey."

    "Which shall avail them not under the Emperor's Sight." A pause, and a hard stare. "None approached you?"

    "None!" Callaphas replied sternly, allowing her bitterness transform into piety. The Commander nodded.

    Callaphas returned to the Convent barracks, sniffing at the small group of resident Hospitaliers, who she suspected of debauchery. If not, why did they grow their hair so long, sometimes even past their should blades? Callaphas had a good, pious cut neatly in a line at ear-level. Thankfully, the Sister Superior had the good sense to keep the trollops way from the good men of the Pilgrimage.

    The farseer just stared at you, her mouth open a fraction. She seemed about to speak but thought better, sitting back in her seat.

    You turned to the com, relaying a series of orders into it. You got a strong "Ave Imperator" in response, the red warning light inside the dropship flashing, signaling it was time to buckle in.

    You strap yourself down after locking the servo skulls in place, the ship disengaging and entering the atmosphere.

    Twenty minutes later, the dropship was landing on a platform in the center of the city, Battle Sisters of several orders posted outside, guns at the ready. They stiffened as the doors opened and the locking mechanisms keeping the passengers inside released.

    Sonja and Elizabeth were the first ones out, followed then by a very disoriented farseer and her warlocks. "Thank Isha! Solid ground!" One of them mumbled under his breath.

    Carol and Coral follow, yourself emerging last with Filigree having to take the time to release the servo skulls and Tybalt.

    Confessor Jeremiah greeted you with a bow. "Hail Madame Inquisitor.

    You had to struggle not to stare at his enormous hat. It must have weighed ten pounds at the very least.

    You nodded a greeting to him, taking a look around. Scattered about were another 4 groups of Sisters and 2 groups of Repentia. You could only guess that the remainder of the planet's military force had been spread over the rest of the planet.

    "Forgive my lateness inquisitor."
    >> His Divine Power 10/23/10(Sat)18:58 No.12548169
    >>12548162

    You quickly look to the source of the voice. Through the doors leading out onto the landing pad walked a tall woman clad in rose-gold armor. Her sash shone several shades of peach and coral, a pair of enormous feathered wings folded behind her. Her divine aura was a gentle rose color.

    A Living Saint.

    The sisters present moved to kneel, but she held out her hand, halting them. "Now is not the time for formalities Sisters."

    The Confessor stepped timidly before her, his head bowed. "Honored martyr... You... You are not wearing the iron halo... nor the incense bur-"

    She held up her hand, stopping him mid sentence. "Confessor. The formalities of what you would have the saints wear is just that. The halo is heavy and I must fly constantly if I wear the burners. I wish not to tire my wings before the time for battle is upon us."

    The confessor hesitated before stepping out of the way, letting the woman approach you.

    "Madame Inquisitor Delessa Kravos. I am Saint Evangela. Welcome to Ophelia VII. I regret our meeting couldn't be under more favorable circumstances."

    Saint Evangela nods to each in turn, though it seemed the greeting was a little forced when directed to the farseer.

    "I really must thank you for alerting us to the situation at hand." She gestured for you to follow. "Canoness Galatea has already explained much of the situation. She too spoke of your acolyte, Inquisitor." She gestured to Filigree. "I'm sorry. It must be hard having someone work under you whose mind was twisted by a rogue psyker..."

    She remained silent for several beats, deep in thought. "So what of Sister Esme? Be she daemon, heretic, or saint?"

    >"So what of Sister Esme? Be she daemon, heretic, or saint?"

The title of 'living saint' is far more political than is my taste. People expect me, a warrior, to decide how to spend the resources of the planet I am residing on. It is maddening."

    Rodwen made a disapproving noise, striding up next to the Living Saint. "I do not know how Mon-keighs prepare for war, but I doubt it involves meaningless chatter!"

    Evangela gave the Eldar a hateful look, her aura of light flaring up slightly. "I do not need the opinion of a xeno. You have my thanks for the offered assistance but if you think for one minute that I trust you, you are sorely mistaken."

    I'd say they d fair better in the inner city, where CC is inevitable
    The living saint is, I think, best used against infantry as well, though she should be a great morale booster

    The farseer huffed. "As much as I wish to ignore that request, Inquisitor, the wisdom in it is infallible."

    The living saint agreed, still eyeing the farseer with distain.

    You eventually reach a set of grand double doors. Upon entering the room beyond, you see the Canonesses, Tessa, Anna, Verity and quite a few other sisters you've never been introduced to. At the head of the table is Inquisitor Lord Alexander Littner. A hulk of a man, his head is shaved balled, his face furrowed with creases. Upon his squared jaw sat a beard that only the emperor himself could outdo. His eyes were constantly bloodshot, the veins swirling and twisting across his eye all the way to the iris. It was all that remained of a particularly bad occurrence of perils of the warp when he was only a boy.

    All eyes turned to you as you stepped in the room, the sister's eyes going huge at the sight of the living saint.

    The Inquisitor Lord was first to break the silence. "Madame Inquisitor Kravos! Saint Evangela! Xeno scum! Please! Please come sit!"

    As you sit, the Farseer takes the seat next to you, Filigree sitting on your opposite side. The farseer's warlocks remain standing.

    The remaining sisters take seats scattered around the table in no particular order. Saint Evangela merely remained standing, flexing her wings and shoulders several times.

    Though the inquisitor didn't seem to have any hostility toward the eldar in the room, despite the comment, many of the other sisters did, glaring hatefully at the xeno witch.

    "On to buisness!" The Inquisitor lord crossed his hands. "The Canonesses have filled me in on the situation Delessa... This is one of the few times I truly wish we had Space Marine backup... Or any backup for that matter. The warp around us is completely destabilized. There is no way for any ships to come to our aid." He let out a long exhale. "As I understand it, however, the infected planets are being taken care of so chaos will be limited by the number of planets and warp bombs that it already has. All we need to do is hold out until our filthy witchkin xeno allies destroy all the portals for us."

    He smiled pleasantly at the farseer, the woman in question not entirely sure how to respond. She probably didn't get sarcasm directed at her too often.

    So we are a... a DOUBLE HERETIC?

    Anyhow,
    "You are correct on all accounts, Lord Inquisitor. The Eldar have already begun removing the chaos taint from the plants producing these infernal devices and intercepting the transports carrying them. It seems we managed to start a counter offensive much earlier than the ruinous forces had anticipated. As much as it pains me to say, without the aid of the xenos we wouldn't have had a chance to resist as effectivly as we do now." Considering the reactions of the sisters towards the Farseer. " I would also like to have every officer remind his troops that, although despicable, the xenos is a necessary ally in this battle. It would be a pleasant change if incidents of friendly fire - and for the duration of this crisis, friendly includes anybody willing to defend this planet against chaos - could be avoided completely. I would also be very grateful if the usual backstabbing as soon as the battle is over could be skipped this time."

    "Yes. We have had worse. And you're right." He looked straight at the farseer, and then at the tense sisters in the room. "There will be no backstabbing of the Eldar. We have a common enemy. To slit each others throats after we have attained victory would leave it hollow and bitter."

    The Farseer bowed her head in agreement. "Naturally. We do not need to be lectured." She gestured to her warlocks. "If there is to be any conflict between us, it will not be my warriors who fire the first shot... Be sure to tell your warriors that the Avatar of Khaine is on their side too."

    The Inquisitor lord sputtered momentarily. "Wait... You're sending one of those burning monstrosities to-"

    He was cut off as a horrible screech filled the air, everyone in the room going tense.

    It was Filigree that broke the silence. "It's begun..."

    The farseer nodded, standing quickly and pointing at a random sister. "YOU! MON-KEIGH FEMALE! Take me outside. I must open the portal for the avatar.

    Her hand tightened on the trigger of her bolter, but she turned and complied swiftly, the farseer taking a small device out of her robe, following quickly, warlocks in tow.

    You could already hear the sound of marching feet. The sisters were moving to their positions on the battlefield.

    A breeze whips up the tail of your greatcoat, the smoke from your cigar swirling around your head.

    The Inquisitor lord slowly stands. "I think its time that everyone take their stations, don't you?"

    The majority of the sisters quickly scurry off at his words, the sounds of bolters being loaded filling the room and hallway. The only ones left were the squads of those still present in the room. Tessa, Verity, Anna, Galatea, Florencia, Carol and Coral, Elizabeth, and Sonja, as well as Filigree, Tybalt, Evangela, the Inquisitor, and his retinue.

    just as an FYI the models with a blue ring around their base have "honors" meaning they did something amazing and epic on tabletop.

    The models with snow on their bases are finished, or are just in the final touchup stage of their painting. Anything with no snow is incomplete.

    My Canoness and my Living saint.

    Blue Ring: It was during the Ghoul Stars campaign. you picked 200 points worth of stuff/units for your HQ. at that point I already had Strange Ammunition (+1 to the str of your HQ's shots) and odd looking armor (+1 toughness +1 wounds -3 initiative)

    Considering my Canoness was now striking at initiative 1, I decided to say 'screw it" and just run her with a Mastercrafted evicerator and inferno pistol

    The goal of this game was to occupy a building or else the lighting outside would turn your units into zombies.

    The game was 4v4. My team was 2 space marines, myself as sisters, and an eldar ally. The opponents were 2 tyranids, some tau, and some orks.

    The tyranids slaughtered the marines with the help of the tau.

    My eldar ally was an idiot and didn't shoot at the orks.

    The orks were nearly in the building and me shooting was doing jack shit

    My squad consisted of 6 celestians, my canoness, and lots of wargear.

    My opponent was 24 ork boyz with feel no pain and 1 power claw, and a warboss with a power claw

    Fuck...
    >> His Divine Power 10/26/10(Tue)17:21 No.12580668
    >>12580662

    Seeing that we no longer had any space marine allies and an angry bug swarm was heading across the table toward the eldar and I, I decided to just say fuck it and charge the orks who were already almost inside.

    I fucking love faith points. Also all hail the random number god.

    At one point I needed to make 6 saves and so, with 6 dice in my hand, i tossed them in the air one at a time and let them land... 6, 6, 6, 5, 5, 6... Fuck yeah!

    My canoness slaughtered all of the orks, though I lost all my celestians.

    Finally it was just my Canoness and the warboss. I had taken only 1 wound and he had taken 2. I figured we'd kill each other since we were going at the same time.

    He missed all of his attacks. I made all of mine. He failed all his saves.

    But i'm not done yet. Oh no. The game was over and my eldar ally decided to be a dick and try to see if he could shoot my canoness to death.

    47 regular shots and 4 star cannon shots. About 23-27 wounds I had to save against

    She walks off the table with 1 wound remaining.

    These are my Sisters Superior. The middle one is non-living saint evangela. Well supposed to be.

    Blue Ring: She got her blue ring also in the Ghoul Stars campaign, but she didn't have any special items to help her.

    It was an awesome game overall. I killed both a catachan devil and the red terror in the same game. (the red terror in one shot because of my canoness having two items that essentially gave her a strength 10 inferno pistol)

    anyway it was an objective game. we were tied for objectives. it was the last 3 turns. If Evangela died, then we'd lose the objective and the game. She was the only one sitting there... and was being attacked by 2 ork boyz, a warboss, 2 tau battlesuity things that seem to be okay in close combat and a hive tyrant.

    For those last three turns, she sat down on that objective, lit a cigar, flipped off her attackers, and said "I'm not moving"

    And she didn't. And we won.

    The Inquisitor lord nodded, slowly rising. "We best be getting moving..."

    Filigree stood up way too quickly. "Wait! Wait! We have stuff for you guys! Its on the dropship I'll go get them!" She awkwardly scampered off, Carol and Coral following, intending to help.

    Well at least they didn't HATE filigree...

    they returned a short time later with the named weapons, handing them out. Florencia seemed to like hers a little *too* much and was practically salivating on the beast of a hammer. "I need heretics... I NEED HERETICS!!!" She ran out without another word, her retinue struggling to catch up."

    "... Yes Filigree?"

    She dropped her arm, frowning. "Should I have taken the emergency portal from the dropship? Because its just sitting-"

    The Inquisitor Lord slowly stood, gathering his henchmen around him. He walked away quickly, the units following. The other sisters began filing out too, leaving you with Tybalt, Evangela, Tessa, and Galatea.

    You all jumped as a deafening roar shaking the buildings outside as a flaming behemoth seemed to appear from nowhere.

    "By my bloody hand... The enemy will not live past this day!"

    It stayed there for a moment before turning in the general direction of the Shadowsword and slowly walking toward it, everything flammable around it combusting in a flare of sparks.

    Filigree came back, dragging the gate with her, watching the avatar leave through the window. "Thats a lot of fire..."

    Evangela was shifting nervously, "The Exalted Martyr... She is coming, right?

    Galatea didn't respond, twiddling a bit. "She jumped out during our warp jump to stop the daemons from invading our ship... There must have been thousands-"

    "She's coming back!" Tessa put down her screwdriver, smiling proudly. There was now a flamer attached to the underside of her new evicerator. "She'll be here soon. I know it."

    Galatea seemed about to object, but closed her mouth, nodding once before standing. She gestured to her retinue quickly leaving, the celestians trotting after her.

    She revved the blade, sparks flying from it as the teeth glowed white hot, the saint taking a deep breath.

    "I approve!"

    Evangela smiled. "Figured you might..." And smashed open the window, diving out, her wings snapping open, carrying her up and over the buildings.

    Tessa nodded once at you. "Time to go to war." Her celestians whooped, rushing out the door, the Sister superior following casually after them.

    You light up another cigar, gazing out the shattered glass. You could already hear the sound of bolter fire, a distant explosion rumbling through the building. You reach down and stroke Tybalt on the head, Filigree slightly annoyed that you were petting the Cyber mastiff and not her.

    What will you do? Stay here and protect the center, or moving out and risk getting cut off and being unable to assist the city's center.

    Filigree stuck her tongue out at you, stumbling back as another explosion rocked the building, this one sounding a lot closer.

    With a horrible tearing sound, a small warp portal opened up in the room a cackling daemonette crawling out.

    "What do we have here... A delicious inquisitor, a mangey mutt and..." She blinked, dropping her combat stance. "Oh... Hi Filigree. I thought you got killed during the initial test."

    Filigree sniffed. "I'm not so easily disposed of Jianzhi!"

    "... Heh... You got bound to an inquisitor..."

    "Jianzhi..."

    "Seriously! You have the worst luck! I mean... She's not even that pret-"

    Filigree snapped. Letting out a screech she brought one claw straight down on the daemonette's head, dividing her into 5 vertical slices. The remains of the daemon collapsed with a wet slopping sound before vanishing in a puff of smoke.

    "I SWEAR!!! GAHHH!!! RAGE!!! SO MUCH RAGE!!!"

    She ran the next one through with her claws before it had even completely exited the portal, blood and gore splattering across the floor.

    She was too distracted to see the second portal that opened, a pink horror slithering out. At least she had that one covered for you.

    (you don't have a retinue. You just have Filigree and Tybalt)

    You draw your force blade, getting the jump on the pink horror, cleaving it in two easily. Tybalt was on your heals, snarling as it grabbed another that was exiting the portal, shaking his head violently. Filigree was still maiming anything that came out of the portal, the energy gate snapping shut. The dismembered daemonette chunks that were falling back through on occasion must have been disheartening to the remaining squad.

    You were about to give both your pets a word of encouragement when you felt something bite into your hip, a horrible, HORRIBLE smell hitting your nose. A plaguebearer had gotten the drop on you, the tip of its blade rammed into a tiny slit in your armor, though it hadn't been able to get the sharpened metal in very far.

    (yes. there are several but none in that room with you right now)

    You kick the daemon back, blasting it away with your bolt pistol. The psybolt easily rips through it, the diseased flesh rupturing and oozing as it was torn apart by your shot.

    The wound it gave you stings badly. It is a very shallow cut but made by a plaguebearer's sword, it could easily turn fatal.

    You turn just in time to see more 5 more pink horrors exit the portal.

    Tybalt goes for one, his mechanical jaws ripping it apart as he forced the creature to the ground.

    Filigree, now done screaming at where the portal used to be, comes to her senses and leaps around you, her lightning claws coming down, killing one instantly and injuring another.

    There are two advancing on you.

    Try to kill one with your bolt pistol and eviscerate the other with your blade, kicking it back into the portal so the others of his kind get a chance to see the fate that awaits them. Hopefully they'll do like the daemonettes.

    Do we have any medical supplies on anybody in our group that might be helpful? Is our servo-skull equipped to handle medical tasks?

    We charge foward, bolt pistol barking, force weapon a blaze of power. We force our mind away from the wound, using years of training and willpower to discount it. We spit psycannon bolts at one foe, raising our blade to strike down the other.

    "Ave Imperitor!"

    You shout at Filigree to cover her ears. She does so with a little difficulty due to the lightning claws.

    You began shouting paradoxes and falsehoods, another Pink Horror crawling from the portal.

    They glance at each other, rather confused, probably thinking you're some sort of idiot and debating if they should cut you down with the correct information.

    By the time they realize you were just trolling them, its too late, your bolt pistol rips one apart and finishes off the other injured one, your force blade cleaving through the final one.

    The portal undulates as if another is about to come through.

    Through the door to your right shuffle more plaguebearers. You can hear the battle cry of bloodletters echo through the building. It appears that chaos cannot yet summon anthing bigger than these grunts at the heart of the city.

    The daemonic wound in your leg hurts badly. You know its already infected. You'll have to take off some armor to treat it however.

    Better now than when the proper daemons start arriving.
    Use our comm equipment.
    "The is Inquisitor Kravos, I'm at XY and requesting the location of the closest unit of hospitalers."
    If they're to far off, have Tybalt and Filigree guard us while we use our medkit/servo-skull. Whatever is better.

    If the plaguesword was able to pierce our armour shouldn't we at least be able to get a shot of antibiotics through the same slit in our armour? This being 40k, I think unpleasantly long medical needles shouldn't be in short supply.

    Also, make a notice to ship the guy who made our armour off to some inquisitorial death camp.

    Set Tybalt after the plague bearers. Since he's made of metal, I very much doubt him being affected by them.
    We should probably follow the plague bearers to their source too- seeing as how we're already kind of suffering from infection.

    You send Tybalt after the plaguebearers, focusing your psyker powers on the wound in your leg. The toxins in it sizzle away and you do just enough to partially heal the wound. You don't want to exhaust yourself.

    For good measure, you have the medical servo skull inject some anti-toxins into the slit.

    Another Pink Horror slithers out of the portal, Filigree taking care of it immediately, reaching her other hand into the portal and forcing the next in line through, eviscerating it as she did.

    The portal closed with a crack. It was obvious to them that this wasn't a secure location.

    "That was totally hot." Try to make it seem as if this was something we didn't want to say out lout, we can't troll our daemonette enough. Listen for the nearest sounds of combat. "Seems like we know where to go. Filigree? Tybalt? Both of you unharmed?"

    I'd guess she's smart enough to understand that we enjoy seeing daemons get killed by her, not the act of being flayed ourselves. But okay, less encouragement, more trolling.
