"It would appear some new information regarding the enemy has been gained, and the Generals and the Marshall wish to make use of it while it is still fresh." The Kommissar said to Vasily as they walked out. "The good father and I will be leading the usual assault waves for the 1st platoon."
Vasily smiled at her, "Try not to kill too many, I want me and my boys to nail a few." he gave her a wink and with that he went off to round up the "Violators"
Most of them were asleep in the ready room, empty bottles littered the floor. "Listen up you monkeys! Happy time is OVER!" he bellowed as they all woke up, their heads aching, "Drink water, hit the head and take whatever will stop the hangover. We hit the Valkyrie in 10minutes!" Rostov stood at the door behind him, his arm in a sling. "Is this a private affair or open invitation?"
"Rostov, are you even able to carry a weapon?" Vasily barked. "Well, my sword arm is okay, but I will have to go with a pistol today instead boss."
Vasily and the men smiled, "Good way to go Rostov! grab one and get ready, stick with Ogre and watch each others' backs. Let's move it Violators!"
Ten minutes later, they were at the drop bay, their drop ship, one of the Valkyrie class, a venerable MiL-300, known as the "Ruptured Condor" or as the men liked to tease the flight crew, "Screaming vulture" awaited them.
The platoons and tanks were being moved via the larger heavy lifters, and would rendezvous with them as they got set up and closed on the enemy from elsewhere.
"Alright! you know the drill, if it crawls on treads or wheels or big metal feet the meltas get to take it down! if is moves through wearing a uniform we give 'em the straight silver after they get peppered!" "Who has vodka carrying duty?" he finished. "Petrovich, Boss!" to which the cabin erupted in belly laughs.
On the ground, the enemy had set up in the urban areas, their men well placed and the same with their tanks. They had leaked info to try and trap the Khadrovians in a maze of fire and death. As they waited air craft zoomed over head, dogfights as well as ground strikes would rattle the remnants of the windows that had not fallen completely out of the sills.
As they waited, they saw the smoke and dust of the artillery barrage from the Khadrovians move, the rumble of armored vehicles and then the weapons fire started, the enemy felt their confidence as the enemy advanced into their trap.
Over the din of the las fire and cannons from tanks came a sound the defenders did not find so confidence building, the roar of many throats being spurred to bravery by booming orators in robes, all wielding hammers or whirring eviscerators.
Father Orlov bellowed, "Onwards! for the Emperor!" at which point the entire first platoon and other platoons moved as massive single entities, priests and Kommissars amongst them to keep their fervor up.
Men dropped as they were hit with the enemy gunfire. None faltered as the kommissars and priests kept their spirits up, whipping them to greater fury as they advanced.
Platoons lost whole squads as they were ripped apart by the entrenched enemy, soon to be in desperate fights of hand to hand combat.
The enemy tanks and reserves were now adding in to defeat the diminished forces, the large tracked monsters rumbling to move and both destroy what they could. Khadrovian armor took hits and lost weapons or slewed to a halt. The enemy was going to maul them, then the rounded up prisoners would be sacrifices to the Gods!
Then a blood chilling sound came from behind, large explosions from tanks exploding. Tanks after tank erupted into orange hued blossoms as they went up. Out from the sewer drains and drain pipes of the wrecked city, Vasily and his men, along with competing veteran squads were advancing, meltas firing as they went, but Vasily always seemed to have the most accurate kills! Like an officer, he was giving orders to have the meltas hit the targets far more frequently than the other veteran squads.
"That's right! Bring 'em down for the Emperor, boys!" and then another tank erupted, or enemy sentinel. With such a change to their battle plan, the enemy attempted to disengage, mostly to be cut down by the angered Khadrovians.

Just a few slight tweaks there.
things I've learnt is that never use exclamation marks unless it's important or suprising or someone's shouting. In a place where billions die daily, war and dramatic events are commonplace, which is why BL books tend not to have exclamation marks after describing explosions, or even entire armies being wiped out. A few more dramatic words swapped, and that's about it. Nice fluff! Really enjoyed it...Is there a model for Vasily's Violators?

Okay, exclamation from exploding tank dropped away. Vasily and his boys tend to be very focused when killing tanks.

that's what internet friends are for- they won't laugh at you (to your...avatar(?), anyway  ) because they're your friends, and they can be blunt because it isn't to your face. Perfect for criticism!
