ooc:ya, however I do see both sides of the argument.

I just dont understand them. The emporer doesnt want to be chosen as a god but who cares everybody fights for him.

Methies had anticipated the move and already had his weapons drawn. He shot the plasma pistol and it fizzled and died. He holstered his pistol and gripped his sword in a two handed grip. "I use whatever to obtain something in the name of the emporer. Wether it be good or bad. I hate the dark gods, but they are very real, and they are very useful to exploit. Oh and your magnetic message will reach the HQ but it will be destroyed in two minutes when the space hulk fires its weapons. We might not be able to intercept it but we can follow it. In fact the hulk is in position. Look up and you can see its majesty", Methies roared. It was true up above floated the gigantic hulk. You could see the guns bristling on it. They warmed up, but did not fire. "Call your men off and they live, dont and they die. I will fight you but not with the threat of your whole army dying or mine either", Methies said. He waited for a response.

"So you do whatever you can to praise the emporer and you do so by defiling his will? How ironic. But i think you forgot something. We also have a warship. He points upwarts. And its right behind yours. So if you would be so kind to deactivate the guns everything will be just fine. I will fight you in both ways tactical and in close combat. It will be my honour to destroy you in combat. And ofcourse we dont use our friends up there huh. Because that would be cheating." 186 smiles behind his mask. "We will see who will win. May the emporer forgive you. 186 turns and starts walking away."

(low blow!)

Asmodeus turned to the watch commander on deck, "what is the situation as far as the other ships?"
The watch commander replied in an even tone "There is the astartes strike cruiser, though from how the Imperial ships gun batteries are charging that probably won't be a problem, there is also the world eaters ship that is strangely silent."
"And of out ships?"
"The Fist of Horus is still heavily damaged from the titan, but the rest are ready to move off if a large fleet of imperial reinforcements arrive"


A psyker ran into the room "My lord, a ship is incoming what do you want us to do"(This would be a good point to either bring in the DA or Orks tyranic)

"Prepare for a fight, send all those aboard the Fist of Horus to the planet, that should keep those on the planet busy."
"My lord shall I prepare the terminators?"
"Yes, and I shall join them on boarding whatever ship is foolish enough to step into the slaughter"

Methies laughs. He had forgot about the imperial cruisers. The commander stopped not understanding why he was laughing. Then a huge explosion appeared where the imperial battlecruiser was. The space hulks weapons powered down. "Now commander get back here. We have a battle to fight. I let you live if lose, but IF you win I will submit myself to the imperiums will through you. Execute me whatever, I dont care. Now lets get on with this."

"So you wish to fight someone who already is wounded? That is even more pathetic than i thought. We will see each other on the battlefield. Lets say this place. No flyers,no titans and no orbital bombardments. Just tactical warfare who can best who. Thats how it will be. By then i will be healed and by then we can have our duel"

"And remember that with that act it is war and belive me you dont like that." (I think its better to pm marta our strategies and then let him rpg it.)

(And btw i think you cant destroy a cruiser when he is in your rear because when the hulk fires the cruiser will fire and then both are destroyed. XD)

"Thats fine. But your forgeting something. My consent to leave. But since your in a hurry leave. I will wait you have five days before I attack you unless you send me an ecyted message saying, "The time is ripe for the taking." With that Methies dismissed the guardsmen and went into his tent.

The hulk destroyed the battle cruiser. The other cruisers then fired. But a hulk is equivelent to about three battle cruisers in all but speed. It absorbed the fire. I then had the captain tell the others to disengage and they wouldnt be destroyed. The hulk can take massive amounts of damage. Its a fleet in itself. I just didnt feel like bringing a fleet, considering my fluff says my chapter lives out of a Hulk anyways.

Okay, I fixed a pointless post above, so you guys may want to read it.

"This place maximum 5 days. no flyers no orbitals no deep strike and no titans. Is that ok with you?" He turns and looks him in the eyes. "Or are you afraid you can't win without them?" (He scans the whole gorge and you cant know)

(Yeah but if the engines are blown and nobody noticed mu cruisers and ofcourse you cant use all the weapons because i am in your rear XD so i think its just better that we didnt open fire on each other ok?

And you deside that my dudes disengage? I think thats god modding

(idea:Both fleets take some damage(10-15% casualties) causing both to fall back a little bit to make field repairs, or better yet let op handle what happens)

He has no fleet he has a hulk and i am in his rear so i will do WAAAAAAAAYYYY MORE damage

nocturne's wrath wrote:He has no fleet he has a hulk and i am in his rear so i will do WAAAAAAAAYYYY MORE damage

(Ya, lets let op figure it out, since both fleets are ran by npc's, much like how my fleet pulled back when it was fired upon, though I would have just nuked the titan from orbit)

Alright. Sorry but I only wanted to get out of space battle mode. It doesnt work well with me.

IC: "Fine no siege cannons though. I dont mind basilisks but super seige cannons are just the same as orbital bombardment.

And a hulk is several ships from all different species. They have the durability of duct tape. Plus shields and the fact its a small moon in itself.

"No super siege cannons." I walk to him. "Then hereby our duel stands. The rules:war every strategic is allowed. Restrictions: no flyers, titans, teleporters and super siege weapons." I offer him my hand as an acceptance. "I hope you are faithfull enough to follow the rules. Because else i will not be forgivable and it will result in total warfare. And you have my word and my honour as a commander that i will follow the rules."

"Commander I might use bad ways of obtaining things but I am honorful to all deals. You will be the one under close watch." Methies said shaking the soldiers hand.

"I may be a deadman but i am not without honour. I will fight you in an honourfull way and so i will beat you."

And i thank you that you are such a sport that we may use our super heavies. That will even everything out. I wish you good luck and may the emporer protect you." 186 turns and starts walking away. " commander dont get yourself killed in the following battle."

Nocturne.... why must you make enemies whith everyone you meet in these 40K rps?

Sigh

anyhoo

In space several imperial ships drop out of warp space and after a moments hesitation, open fire on the already damaged chaos fleet. In total 1 super carrier 3 srike cruisers and about 8 corvettes are involved in the fleet, which bears the livery of the Black templars

A vox message ovverides the jammers in the gorge and overwhelms the vox system with a message.

"This is Brother captain Harker of the Black Templars Legion. Requesting an audience from all factions of the Sons of the Emperor, this planet has been chosen for the Crusade to flow over and flow over it , it shall. You will all submit and fight alongside us , or perish in the defense of your already battered fortifications. Know this Fallen, your fleet will be destroyed momentarily if you do not call them off. This is a time for unity under the Emperor, not disgrace under his name.

You have 30 minutes to prepare delegates for teleportation.

(Actually marta i play (and am in RL as warhammer obsessive) an real fan of the emporer and i just take it when they f*** w him XD)

+message reaction+ welcome noble astartes i welcome you in name of the emporer and i am thankfull that you answered our martial call.

"Black Templars ......allowing chaos to live......well now this is a first" Asmodeus muttered."And apparently they know of the fallen"

"I think I can suffer a temporary alliance" Asmodeus told his second in command"And if nothing else A Super Carrier would be ideal for a new flagship"

Moving to the boarding shuttle with his original boarding crew of Terminators he told the teleportarium engineers"If we are in trouble and you do not teleport us out of there I will personally come back from the warp and torture you for a thousand years.

Towards the Black Templar ship a boarding ship laden with a dozen heavily armed Black Legion Champions approached.

"Sons of Dorn, we approach be prepared to accept the delegation" Asmodeus said over the ship vox, though hessitant at what could be tantamount suicide Asmodeus was prepared to turn this group into fellow followers of khorne.

+private meddage to master harker.+ i have challenged the lord for a duel. To be more precise an dual of warfare. Are you allowing me to follow the duel or do you wish to battlw yourself because then you can join. Of course if you wish mylord. Praise the emporer.+

"A chaos lord... We did not expect you to be here. No matter i can suffer an alliance for the time being, this planet has been tainted with the necrons, we are here to purge them, if you and my force is still alive when the necrons are gone, then we will retreat for exactly one day to gve you time to leave this world in honour of the alliance, if you refuse then we will destroy you"

"Seargeant... I do not wish to have to destroy you and the fallen, but if you do not ally with me then the charter is clear, you will become the enemy"

No no no milord i am just asking if i may fight my duel i will be your ally as i am a faithfull doldier of the emporer
