The Defense Of Corincoth IV

"If they start summoning daemons then we might have more problems than first expected"

You lot will, if it comes to it I'll move behind their lines to secure the kill.
My men will provide overwatch.

We already cleared this Trader. If you would have listened to the brief, I said, he has hordes of cltists, the war machines Of warsmith Baraken, the entirety of his chapter AND DEMONIC ALLIES

"So how do you hope to win?"

We hold out until reinforcements arrive whilst I kill their chapter master

How do we hope? THis is our home planet. We have 15 titans. We have 20 Super heavies, including three fellblades. We have the entirety of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 8th companies. We have 30 regiments of guardsmen and their tanks. We will defeat this horde, with or without you

"Wars can be won in different ways other than mass death"

We are defending, surrendering is not an option

How do we hope? THis is our home planet. We have 15 titans. We have 20 Super heavies, including three fellblades. We have the entirety of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 8th companies. We have 30 regiments of guardsmen and their tanks. We will defeat this horde, with or without you

No. We will not beguile the enemies. we murder them, straight and simple. No traitor has ever set foot on this world and lived to tell the tale. I intend to keep it that way

"But we could lure them into a trap"

*the cargo transport rumbles past and 5 snipers jump off, forming up behind me*

These are my best marksmen, set them up where you believe their skill will be best used.

A trap may not work, they are assaulting from orbit...though we could deliberately leave a large area undefended to lure them uni a cross fire

"You say they are drawn to gold? Perhaps we could leave a stockpile undefended, their force would be split apart as they are drawn to it"

I don't believe that'll work Trader... I know these guys, they'll go where there's the most people...

*several tanks now rumble out of dreadnought, they resemble TOG 2*s and chieftain tanks*

*Gronus and Gronusette follow them* That's a nice collection that you have there

Engineer 1: thanks,if you like you can run diagnostics on them whilst we await orders

"Imagine what they're worth... oh, sorry"

*the engineer stares at the rogue trader, horrified*

Engineers, If you'd like to follow my personal rhino, I'll lead you to the vehicle bay *gronus drives off*

"Dont worry, I was joking!" She laughs.

*the engineers jump onto one of tanks and follow the rhino*

"Idiots..." she walks back to her shuttle.

*Fyfian to Valerian*I really want to punch her...
OOC: Valerian is chief librarian

*watches the rogue trader walk away*
You know....I could arrange an 'accident' for her, after all my vessel has pre-imperium tech veeery finicky....

No. As much as I want to BushWookie, I will not order the death of anyone loyal to the imperium

As you wish

"Sek, control yourself next time; you nearly got us killed" the trader says.

"I'm sorry... but the astartes was being a arse"

"I don't want to hear it"

Right then. ANGEL'S SWORD, DISMISSED! *The companies fall out.* Squad Memphis, to me. Show Bushwookie and his men their accomodation, and the armoury if they are running low

*throws himself onto a bed*
Aaagh.....lying down is good

*all of the Marines retire to their bunks* *night passes*

*typical morning music*

OOC: G2G Dinner

ooc: Back
IC: The SM are already awake and patrolling, readying themselves for the fight

*awakens the marines around and they go about their daily routine onboard the dreadnought*

*A vox sounds over the entire city* +men and women of Corincoth IV, this is Chapter Master Fyfian Seraphite. Today the enemy land at our doorstep, but we shall not back down! This world shall never fall to the foul workings of Chaos. Will you stand and fight with us against this danger, or will you back down and watch as this planet is lost. Today, the Legions of marines stand with us. Today, the ranks of guardsmen stand with us. Today, the power of the holy titans, and the holy Super-heavy weapons of destruction work on our side. Today, The emperor has blessed us with one of his holy assasins with which to lay waste to the chaos fiends. Do your duty, and stand by our sides. to all militant units, form up outside the main gates. Our battlements are formed, and now, we are prepared.+

*The marksmen and my marines form up into blocks outside the main gate with me standing infront of them*

The trader is in orbit, activated the stealth field on her ship.

"You think you can do it?" She says worried.

"If I don't, you can kill me in the afterlife" the kroot jokes, strapping on the void field generator to his spacesuit.

"You don't have to do this, it's not in your pay grade"

"Oh, it will be if it works" he picks up the archotech device, small but weighty in his hands, a blue aura around it.

Fyfian:+I don't know what you're plan is trader. Bt if you backstab us, we will bring our wrath on your head+

they see several black dots falling from the sky in the distance

+Plan? Please; you presume too much of me+ the kroot opens the back hatch.

*sees the spots.* Here they come. Brace!

The enemy will soon be upon us, marines you are under the command of the chapter master

*salutes and begins running in search of a vantage point*

The kroot gives a salute to the rogue trader, before diving from the ramp in high orbit, freefalling.

the dreadclaw pods slam into the floor

OOC: oh shit...dreadclaws

+I am in position chapter master+

*the tanks form up a kilometre from the prospective battlefield*

The kroot can see the chaos attack falling through the sky as he falls, hundreds of shuttles, drop pod looking things, and even larger shapes.

"Throne... that's some serious firepower"

*the tanks open up with deadly accurate fire*

at which point the tanks notice a wing of chaos thunderhawks heading right for them
OOC can I make my own chaos lord for this?

HOLD POSITION *the titans all fire into the sky, downing as many drop pods as possible*
