Wiping the corrupted flith from her Witch Blade, Danu spits upon the corpse of one who serves She Who Thirsts. Then simply says, "Let us away". Thus begins a New Day

Nicholai stood upon the turret of his faithful Chimera Command Vehichle as it trundled along the rocky passageway. Behind him the Firstborn of Vostroyan marched stoically, singing in their deep, gruff voices. Their words carried into the valley below them, where a scene of nightmares was underway. Tooth, claw, Chainsword and axe all meshed into one as the Tyranid horde crashed into the Chaos and Ork lines. Nicholai paid them no heed. He had the might of Vostroya behind him, and there was no stopping that. He lost himself in song, a ballad of old that all Vostroyan children knew well.

"Beware thyne wych, the harvesters stock.
They come for bairn and helpless flock.
Look out your doors and be not afraid,
For the sons of Vostroya march here this day.

One by one they march this way,
Paying a debt that can ne'er be repaid.
The First of Vostroya, here we do stand.
With sword, shield and lasgun on hand,
We grind our foe into dust, into sand."

Nicholai grinned wolfishly. Vostroya was going to war.

Vostroya Attacks Red Corsairs 1, Attacks Freebooterz 1, Attacks Kraken 1.

Slaughter Lord Shamanos laughed as he watched as one of his vessels burned in the void. The eldar had come and like rats they had fled. But Shamanos knew, Kharnath cares not from whence the blood flows. His God had empowered races barely sentient to bleed him. So be it. His skull had always belonged to Khorne.

" But dem kowardly maggotz dinna wanna propah fight!" SkarGob continued " But da bugz..now dey knowz 'ow ta skrap!!".

The Warboss raised his power klaw,indicating a writhing mass of Tyranids in the distance.

"Diz iz da fight we'z been lookin fer!!..Diz iz da fight we wuz spoze ta have!!!" The Warboss roared " Now!! we'z gonna 'ave sum fun!!...dem bugz iz dead killy...but we iz mor killy!!!..we iz 'arder!!..we iz bettah!!!...WE IZ ORKZ!!"

Nids eat more mushrooms!

I ended up missing my turn due to a late night.

Won't let that happen again...

"Foul ork filth!" Nicholai screamed as he rended anothers skull with a swipe of his power blade. Their was no singing now, only shouting and yelling and the screams of the dying. The greenskins were surging forward, pushing themselves into the Vostroyan ranks, unfazed by the artillery the tore gaping holes in their ranks. It seemed that the Tyranids had also fallen upon the ork horde, their swarms digging deep into the Ork lines. Nicholai could only hope that they continued to kill each other, praying to the Patron Saint of Vostroya that Vostroya would go unnoticed by the monstrous tyranid horde. If they did, Vostroya would suffer a blow it could never recover from.

As he hacked and hacked into the greenskin scum, the lines between friend and foe blurred. Nothing was making sense anymore.

Nicholai spotted a gigantic ork, probably one of the foul Warbosses, throwing a vulgar hand gesture his way. Climbing atop the battered Command Chimera, he threw several pelvic thrusts of his own before returning the gesture.

Lord Shamanos roared as he took the skull of his fellow world eater. How dare Tyrax challenge him. But it was settled now wait, wasn't he suppose to have done something? (missed yesterdays turn oops.)

WarBoss SkarGob roared with joy,now this was a proper fight.

His boyz had met the "bugz" in a glorious dance of fury and carnage,and now it appeared " Da oomiez" wanted a piece of the fight as well..

SkarGob laughed like a maniac," Even dem sneaky Blood Axez wantz ta get in on da killin."

" Diz iz shaping up ta be a good day." SkarGob grinned,his power klaw scissored into an advancing "oomie",the man unhinging and toppling in two halves in a spray of blood and entrails.

" Keep krumping ya maggotz!!" the Warboss belowed at his boyz " I dun wanna see nuffin left alive wot aint green!!"

WAAAGHH!!!

Goff (Orks) attack Vostroyans (IG).

Ork, Imperial, and Renegade Vessels alike danced amongst the cloud of Tyranids that loomed hungrily over the Worlds of the Ultramar Sector, the only semblance of cohesion and alliance coming unusually from the typically chaotic Ork and Renegade Forces. Their was a barely noticed flash at the edge of the system as Warpspace tore it's way into real space, through the eye of this multicolored storm passed the Nocturne Glaive, the predator was silent and on the prowl, her Astartes masters having decided it was time to keep up their end of the bargain with the Ork Warboss. The Ancient Warship's prow lances flared at the closest of the Hive Ships, its hunt had begun.

Night Lords move to Ultramar, and attack Hivefleet Kraken.

Note that Kraken is actually at 24, not 23.

Alba put them at 24 instead of 25 for some reason, and nobody corrected it (until now).

@BS: thanks for cleanup.

Ok I'll go and edit that John.

Edit:No problem John.

"The Fleet is ready, Lugh" said Danu. The Farseer continued on to tell the Autarch, "When we arrive you will take the Spear of Morgrim and lead the Strike." Lugh straightened with news of this honour. He replied, "Thank you for this unexpected Honour". Lugh had just been assigned to work with Farseer Danu on the eve of this conflict. While it would be normal for the Autarch to lead the warhost and be the voice of the Avatar, for reasons shrouded in mystery the Farseer was the one in command. This had caused much friction between the two and Lugh had spoken rashly in criticism of Danu telling her that, "You would waste time scrying the future to determine how you should breath". There had been severl tense moments between the two that lead him to question, "Why this honour?" "Has she divined that the end of his lifes thread lies near?" Whatever she knew, Danu had become increasingly reticent, even to the point of delegating her duties to others while she spent more time in the Crystal Dome. What ever was going on, Lugh had no more time to waste pondering upon such things. The Time for battle was nigh.

It is a New Day and the strikes had been accomplished with practiced mastery. Lugh had to admit that he was beginning to feel the sustained pace of the attacks. It wasn't the fighting that was wearing upon him, no it was the repitition that was needed to bring bown the corrupted Mon-kiegh. Lugh tilting his head back, rubbing his neck thought,"At least we will finish these animals soon and will be able to join in the major battle at the Mon-kiegh's fortress world."

3 cycles. To Nicholai it seemed longer than that. Much longer. A fresh batch of youngbloods arrived, thier wispy hair only just beggining to take the form of a mustache. Nicholai frowned. He should be happy, but he only felt resigned...he wondered how long they would last.

Vostroya attacks all Greenskin scum 1. Reinforces 1. Time to dig in.

Lord Shamanos tired of the pathetic rat like attacks of the cowards. To scared to even face him at 2 to 1 odds. But such is the way of xenos. Always hiding, always running back to their lairs. He set his sights on the mindless cockroaches instead.

C is for crunchy! Om nom nom!! Om nom nom!!!

Sorry about putting Kraken on 24, I had originally planned to attack them but then changed my mind and attacked Vostroya instead. I forgot to change it back - I guess that's what happens when you post whilst high!

Also, Vostroyans were on 18 - EF reinforced 1, so they should now be on 19.

SkarGob heard the thunderous roar of "Da Oomiez" big gunz,the shells tore through a swath of his boyz,sending arms and legs flying in all directions.

The WarBoss clambered rapidly to the top of a Battle Fortress,Yelling at the top of his lungs towards "Da oomiez".

" Datz da spirut,Ya soft pink gitz!!!" SkarGob bellowed "Dun't givz up to eazy...givz uz a propah fight!!!"

Red Corsairs attack one, then flee and reinforce.

The Kraken would have to wait, a decisive blow could not be made whilst the Imperials stood their ground and fought, and the Eldar raided. One or the other would have to be destroyed, preferably both. With a signal from the Captain the Glaive's lances began charging, its prey this time one of the many Vostroyan support vessels. Seconds, maybe minutes passed as the lances were charging, the Cruiser's lesser batteries working to keep the ship un-harassed. Finally, the weapons were ready, with a single gesture from the Captain the lance's tore into the Supply Ship. The Nocturne Glaive and her crew remaining in system only long enough to watch the ship's first death throws.

Night Lords attack the Vostroyians, and withdraw to Iyanden.
