**Buttery Commissar**

[Watches] Five MREs and a soup ration say your boys don't break the Kroots' defense line.

**2BlackJack1**

*one Kroot jumps from behind cover at one guardsman, while another comes from behind him*

[Whispers to self]

That's the spirit! It's better to show them no mercy here, than on an actual battlefield.

*draws his own staff and looks for an easy ambush sight*

**War Kitten**

*one Kroot is shot down and stunned as he leaps from cover*
*another Guardsmen is clubbed down*
At least the men are making a decent account for themselves.
*winces as a vicious melee develops in the center*

**2BlackJack1**

*hits one guardsman in behind his knee as he turns towards the melee*

What's that ancient gue'la expression? Watch your six?

*kicks the guardsman to the side and runs towards the melee*

**Buttery Commissar**

[Taps WK on the shoulder and points over to where two guardsmen have set up a picnic blanket and lunch] ...

**War Kitten**

*a few more Kroot are clubbed down and knocked unconscious by Lasgun butts*
*a few shots are sent at 2BJ1*
*turns to see the picnicking Guardsmen*
Oh for feth's sake..

**2BlackJack1**

*narrowly ducks under the lasgun fire*
*turns towards the picnic and smiles*
They're asking for this...
*leaps onto blanket, kicking food into one guardsman's face while clubbing the other one*

**War Kitten**

*sees the two panicking Guardsmen*
Can't say they didn't deserve that.
*looks to where the Kroot/Guard melee has devolved into a stalemate*
Hmm.

**Buttery Commissar**

[Leans against barracks wall and quietly lights a smoke] [Nods to BC] You should go and help, there's no way you could possibly do any harm.

[BC wanders down dodging las fire and the occasional Kroot by sheer happenstance, and starts coordinating the troopers into a vaguely disciplined defensive gunline]

Well, I'll be. [Perplexed]

**2BlackJack1**

*lasround hits the ground next to him*

Feth, their accuracy is getting better.

*shrugs and throws the staff at one guardsman, sending it flying end over end until it hits him in the head*

Wasn't a temple shot, he oughta be fine with some ice on that!

*stoops down and grabs a guardsman's lasgun*

**War Kitten**

*several troopers concentrate fire on 2BJ1*
*to BC*
Say what you want about Benny, but he's still got it.

**Buttery Commissar**

[BC waves cheerfully to Blackjack from behind the gunline]

I briefly thought he was actually improving. [Shrugs]

**2BlackJack1**

*throws a bag of sand into the air, disrupting the lasrounds*

*nods to BC in return while charging at the gun line, distracting them from the Kroot flanking from behind*

This is probably going to hurt, isn't it?

*grits teeth-(beak?) in preparation of getting shocked, while firing at the guardsmen on the run*

OOC: Correct me if I'm wrong, but sand , dust, mirrors, etc can mess with lasrounds right, seeing as how they are lasers?

**Buttery Commissar**

Ooc: No, but in archaic models they can cease operation if they get into the intakes and lenses. If you throw the sand over the guard, they'd have to strip down some guns.

**2BlackJack1**

OOC: I should've figured as much. I remember someone bringing it up once, but I don't think GW would let their flashlights not work during a sandstorm, or something of the like.

**Buttery Commissar**

Ooc: Basically calling it light/laser after it leaves the gun is rather a misnomer. It's superheated blasts of energy from my understanding, and it's arguable how it reacts with surfaces like glass/water or mirrored surfaces.

**ZergSmasher**

*Burrows from ground along with a large number of Zerglings, then looks at the melee between the Guardsmen and Kroot*

"Ooh, look, they started the party without us!"

*Shoots needle spines at several nearby Guardsmen and Kroot, impaling them. The Zerglings start attacking the rest.*

"Now that is what I call a Zerg Rush!"

OOC: I got tired of the Protoss, so I'm going back to the Zerg for now.

**Buttery Commissar**

Well that's one way to break up a party. [Starts running down towards the fight, and draws pistol] [Blasts a Zergling as it rears up to attack a pair of Kroot, and runs straight past, firing the bale eye laser at it for good measure]

**ZergSmasher**

*Shoots a needle spine through Yarrick's leg, knocking him to the floor*

"MORE!"

*Several Hydralisks pop out of the ground and start shooting needle spines into the Kroot and Guardsmen, who inexplicably are still fighting each other as well as the Zerg.*

**Buttery Commissar**

[Curses and pulls self upright using a stunned guardsman and a tree] [Fires bale eye back at ZS, whilst staying upright mostly out of stubbornness] Benny, get them to focus on the bugs, for feth's sake! The Kroot can only stun you, these things don't know the rules.
[BC starts redirecting fire at the zerg]

[Revs Chainsword and uses it to swat away zerglings from the unconscious guardsmen and kroot]

**jhe90**

*repressor crashes through guns and flamers blaring splattering yarrick in chrispy zerg chunks*

Sorry, there are cooked for kroot though.

*heavy bolters start laying down cover fire and exhorsist strikes destroy a swarm headed from south*

**Verviedi**

*Notices the fight*
What... The.... Feth...
*Begins spraying light blue lasers at the Zerg*

**jhe90**

*shouts out*

What the feth are they, there not nids, orks or chaos....

*continues to set heavy bolters to suppression mode. *

*Marla comes back driving a stormlord*
Eat this....

*vulkan mega bolter begins to shread zerg into tiny chunks.

**2BlackJack1**

*runs back towards his weapons, using the lasgun to clear a path*

You start helping humans, then this shows up. Perfect.

*grabs his weapons, and charges at a hydralisk*

**War Kitten**

FOR THE EMPEROR!
*opens fire on zerg*

**Buttery Commissar**

[Attempts to limp out of the way of the repressor, and gets coated in Zerg mess] This is what I get for trying to help, I suppose. Expect nothing less.

[Turns and rams chainsword into a the back of a hydralisk whilst shooting at it with a bolt pistol]
...! [Looks down at needle spines protruding through chest, bending cuirass outwards] Ah. That'll hurt when it registers. Why do they give us armor that only covers from the front-
[Thrown off hydralisk and against a tree] [Continues firing bale eye until impacting]

**jhe90**

*points further away at pile of dead zerg that where about to rush vc*

You where helped in fact. *shouts*

**Co'tor Shas**

Oh it looks like it's time for some fun!
*The artifact blade is loosed from it's sheath, a red glow dancing across it's edge, the eyes on the hilt darting from place to place*
*blade smoke coils from the blade and up arm, and a evil gleam enters co'tor's eyes*

**Buttery Commissar**

[Hits tree, falls down tree trunk and lands flat] ..I appreciate it.

[Biological eye pupil goes pin-prick] ...There'd be the body registering the projectiles.

[Pulls self upright and sees Co'tor] Ebough about me. What in the merry hell is that?

**Co'tor Shas**

*starts laughing while gleefully slicing through zerg*
