order of blazing light

Meanwhile in the ground in the grand cathedral
Hellaina: I swear if this situation goes any further south I'm gonna have to call for martyrdom protocol

Suddenlly, a flash of light appears behind the marine line as several gouts of holy white fire gouts the cyborgs

*Meanwhile next to the cannoness*

"Like what happened in the karauva conflict?"

yaaaaaaaaaay

"By Judda, aid!" Says the marine, his armour covered with impact craters, still smoking as he picks targets, his brothers doing likewise.

they keep coming....at which point they hear a metallic roar resonating through the ship
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

The ship suddenly curves up, not too far from the ground itself, winds blowing hard against the advancing Orks before...men?
Seem to descend, swinging on ropes.

"ALRIGHT LADS! LETS SHOW THESE ORKS WHO CAN REALLY PLUNDER!"

dressed in very nautical themed carapace, Men stomp down ontop of the orks themselves, guns blazing.

The purgation squad open up with the 2 incinerators, 1 psycannon, 1 psilencer and 6 storm bolters (4 heavy weapons, 5 normal guys, 1 justicarl)

OOC problem arkais
the fight is going on inside a ship
IC at which point there is an explosion, revealing at least a dozen, heavily cybernetically enhanced meganobz, striding through the fire unharmed

The grey knights melee weapons light up, aswell as the psilencer

OOC: Prepare your anus

Force weapons inbound

"What do we do!" Shouts one of the human crew.
"fall back, and get a plasmagun down here!" Shouts the marine, firing from the hip as he backs away.

the meganobz charge, kill saws revving, claws raised, guns blazing
OOC good luck using ap3 weapons against 2+ save guys ;)

The marine counter charges, combat rolling under the nobs reach, before drawing his combat blade.

OOC: Aha!
Even better.

The men are holding what can only be described as grapple launchers.
Launching onto the side of the ship, they make their way into the access points.

"Men...show them the meaning of boarding action."

Except...for one man.

Dressed quite exquisite black power armour and a black cloak, a rose red lining on the inside and golden trim.
A man of ebony black locks steps, a single eye un-shown and covered by an eye patch.

If one could see the front of his armour, you would see a giant white skull painted on it and if one could see his cape, you would see a pair of swords crossing a skull inlaid into it.

And he arrived via a personal craft into the hanger.

only to be face to face with another meganob
remember i said there's a dozen of em

OOC: Yes but they are also insta kill

And good luck passing all those armour saves from a psilencer
IC: The psilencer wielder turns, and fires a spray of bullets at one of the nobz

Dodging the attacks, the son of Judda aims his pistol at exposed joints, power cabling, and the faces, his superior speed keeping him safe.

Out of a maintenance shaft pours a number of diver suit looking carapace users, holding bolters of human calibre.

??: "YO HO HO ASSHOLES!"

at which point a meganob simply aims his kombi skorcha at the marine and fires, bathing the area where he stands in flame

the meganobz charge, the shots glancing harlmessly off of their armour. those grey knights close enough for them to reach quickly taste the nasty end of their power klaws if you see what i mean

Hellaina: sort of like Kaurava. Those custom jetpacks don't just sizzle out on death when martyrdom's enabled

"Intriguing"

*MEANWHILE, ON THE SPESS*

Actually no because I get to strike first

The Meganobz find themselves flanked as Bolters open up on them.
A singular man, wearing more ornate gear, holding a combi-melta, opens up the melta onto one of the Nobz in question.

"IN THE NAME OF JUDDA, IDENTIFY YOURSELVES OR PREPARE FOR COMBAT" says a marine, armed with a boltgun.



The brother jumps from the fire, his armour smoking and scorched, but he rams the knife into the orks head, twisting it before diving away.

The cloaked man walks up the ship, towards the marine, casually, before pulling his bolt pistol and opening up a few rounds onto the surrounding orks, the bolts burning away ork flesh...hellfire rounds.

"I am Captain Gallow, Rogue Trader and leader of the Gallows...we're here to take back your ship marine."

He pulls out his power sword, the said sword having a bolter attached at the top of the sword.

"Is that an issue, Astartes?"

"By Judda, this ship is falling from the sky; the enemy will not be allowed to claim it. If I were you, I'd run little trader, get out while you can" says the marine, heading with a squad towards the combat.

actually yes cause hammer of wrath

So a automatic normal strength hit.

also the meganob seems...surprisingly unharmed by the knife to the head as he keeps firing

The Trader makes a small chuckle as he makes his way alongside them.

"I don't think the ship falling shall be an issue..."

On the outside...the ship flanks the strike cruiser, launching massive grapples into its side, powering up it's engines, attempting to keep the ship in place for the time being.

OOC: Question

Whats to stop us from using

1. The power of the ominosiah to just rek all the robots

2. Emp

Ooc:It's not a strike cruiser, it's a frigate

OOC simple hyp
power of da waagh

Ooc: we have no EMP weapons, it's 40k.

OOC: Explain


And I can dream ollie

I CAN DREAM

OOC: Even easier then.

The men from the boarding action continue to fire their bolters into the behind ranks of the Ork.
The sargeant of the squad opening up his melta shot onto the MegaNobz in concert with them.

The Captain sweeps in, firing his Hellfire spiting pistol firing into their rear as well.

OOC if it were that simple to use omnissiah stuff to fight cyborks....why has no one done it before?
and humans don't have EMPs anymore as far as i can tell
tau yes
humans no

the meganobz keep hacking at the grey knights
and behind the newcomers more orks tellyport in and charge them from behind

The crew start abandoning ship, the marines escorting them.

+All hands, abandon ship and regroup with the strike cruisers!+

OOC: Well no

It does work because clan raukkan did it (Iron hands)

IC: The GK teleport out

never heard of that happening, elaborate
IC at which point some unknown force grabs a hold of the ship and starts pulling it in a certain direction away from the rest of the fleet

The frigate screams as it enters warp, the sound of screaming souls flood out all noise.

It reenters realspace, a few seconds after the sound of a massive collision ripping the ship apart, the pressure of suddenly impacting with the world's ocean sending a huge shock wave through the ship.

OOC: Clan raukkan was fighting crons and used a bomb which had millions of caged machine spirits inside it, who were bat fuck insane, and only wanted to destroy, so when it went off, I do quote the supplement "It sent the planet back into the stone age, no piece of technology functioned on it anymore, including the necrons"

Or something like that

OOC yeah but....thing is most ork things, likely including their cybernetics, is powered not by any actual technologocal power, but by the power of the waagh
unless you can somehow cut off the waagh power then no you can't do that

The Captains sword seems to blaze to life...literally, as the blue humming sword errupts into an angry red, flames slowly rolling off of it.

He fires its inbuilt bolter twice into the shoulders of a Cybork, making it reel forwards before He uses it's arched form as a stepping stone and stands on its shoulders...before plunging the sword into its skull.

The men hear the crackle of teleportion, turning to face them...before the ship crashes.


The men are scrambled in amongst the Orks as they had been jumbled up by the crash.

The Captain is flung up against a wall.

"...Damn it all."

OOC: Then how come curse of the machine spirit still works on ork tanks

OOC cause that's ork tanks. those are usually looted and therefore still work the same way they did when they weren't looted.
also arkais....i said something was pulling the ship
IE preventing it from crashing

OOC: Thats fair enough then

OOC: I see.

The Damnation, still hooked into the frigate is pulled by the same forces, powerful enough to grapple both ships.

"Damn it...EVACUATE TO THE DAMNATION!"

He looks around at the marines.

"You best come too."

The men lay down more covering fire.

the orks just keep coming, more and more being tellyported in
it seems that tellyport arrays were transported onto the ship by those asteroid shards

Hellaina: I grow tired of watching this debacle above our planet, how are the surface to space cannons?
+in working condition Cannoness+
Hellaina: good
(I'm referring to that one cannon in the space marine game that you had to disable, but 4 of them here)

OOC: That moment when you realize the grey knight fleet was never even in proximity of the planet and was actually on the systems outer edge

TO late now I guess

IC: "This should be intresting"

Am of going on xbox tata
