M.40 Year. 678
Many millenia after Supreme Grand Master Raphael struck down the arch-heretic of New Caliban a new threat has entered the wartorn system. A far less insidious, yet just as threatening shadow is looming over New Caliban in the form of thousands of orks, under the leadership of Warlord Mazdruk the Kunnin'. As soon as the Dark Angels discovered this incursion by the orks Grand Master Sammael was sent at the head of the 2nd company, the Ravenwing, in order to restore the honour of the unforgiven. At the right hand of Sammael stands Interrogator-Chaplain Mortius, a veteran of centuries of warfare, hardened by the darkness of the 40th millenium and prepared to stop at nothing to end the xenos threat. Warlord Mazdruk has a veritable horde of speed freaks at his disposal, used to outmaneuvering cumbersome tanks and transports, but how will they fare against a hundred of the emperor's finest, mounted on mechanical steeds?

The scene is set

Turn 1, Ravenwing
On the ground, the first warning of the coming assault by the Dark Angels was the screaming descent of a dozen Thunderhawk gunships, escorted by a retinue of Nephilim jet fighters. Ork dakkajets were being scrambled almost immediately as the noise of turbo charged trukk engines filled the air, along with clouds of oily smoke. As soon as the Thunderhawks ahd left the landing zone Grand Master Sammael and Interrogator-Chaplain Mortius broke off with a command squad and a large amount of Ravenwing bikers in tow. The other half of the force split into separate units to splti the ork force into manageable pockets to be killed one at a time. The sudden whooshes of burning air signalled the arrival of Typhoon Landspeeders, firing off missiles into the ork lines. Several ork vehicles were blown to pieces before they had even moved, including the orks inside.

Turn 1, Orks
As soon as he had heard the screaming descent of Thunderhawk gunships Warlord Mazdruk had been revving his warbike engine and flexing his power klaw screaming at his honour guard of noz to "Get goin' ". As he saw the ravenwing maneuvre and dart around his forces, Mazdruk knew what to do. Being a kunnin' ork he knew that by splitting his force his trukks would be torn apart one by one, so he decided to send his dakkajets to harry the Ravenwing away from his flanks so he could concentrate on blowing apart a command squad that was carrying a pretty flag. There were the usual premature volleys from inexperienced boyz as the trukks rolled forward, building up speed and inertia as they travelled the plains of New Caliban, on the hunt for humie' blood.

Turn 2 will be coming soon if I get enough views/comments
