Every year the Praetorian forces of 121st Light Infantry celebrate the annual Ork hunt on the jungle world of Almala. For many soldiers this is a right of passage, for others a a way to gain respect among the soldiers, but for most it is mindless entertainment. The Orks have always been feral and its a rare sight to see one clothed, let alone armed. It has been theorized that the Orks have a queen that lays millions of eggs to regrow the population. This theory is due to the lack of female Orks on the planet. A prize of 1 weeks leave has been offered for the capture of such Queen or a Female Ork Specimen.

The annual Kill to Loss Ratio averages out to 16 Orks killed for every man lost. The leading Ork hunter is Marbo Dundee who has slain 387 Orks during his career. He is taking some rookies on the hunt to show them the ropes along with his favored tracker Humlutze, a Kroot Mercenary who has developed a taste for roasted Ork. Together they will use this time as bonding and training for the new men of the 121st Light Infantry.

During the hunt they received word that some men from the mortar company have sustained casualties with gun wounds. This is being looked into by the authorities as to the cause. Marbo Dundee has decided to press on with the hunt...

So thats the prefluff for tonights kill team. I am doing another attempt at a comic batrep and well I want an awesome narrative for it.

Pretty much it hints at the orks no longer being feral and while Marbo Dundee tracks down the Orks with his Kroot buddy they end up in a fight with some not too feral orks.

Anything I could add to this or change?

Yep, I know that. Obviously my soldiers dont.

I plan on having them find the female ork cheerleader at the end of the battle if I win.

its for the same reason my company has someone whose job it is to translate what the orks say so the commander can understand it. She doesnt get it right very often though.

All part of making high command look stupid.

I think you most experienced person/commander of the Praetorian Guard should be Lieutenant Caine, just for the awesome joke/link with Zulu.

Caine has taken part in many battles, but Dundee has yet to have his major role in my forces (since marbo has been eliminated) So tonight its his time in the spot light.

Also Caine will be in my recreation of the movie zulu in 40k form, (zulu will be orks) so his role will be in that big battle.

If it has Caine then the fluff will be awesome and will go far in the world.
