I'm fairly sure Selka is going to end up in prison if he has to speak with Marcus.

So, what's the verdict on a colonel executing some nobles?

Just a colonel? I honestly doubt it would pass

Fine long as you not mind a few enemies there, and maybe a negative miodifer on some things. you might need the Ultramarines backing for it to do it and live however.

you risk minor rebellions.

Well, the nobles DID dick us over and result in some of my guys dying. Detta may find himself beaten to the punch by an enraged Marine Captain.

But it shouldn't be without consequences, even SM can't go around killing people willy nilly.

What was that?

We're quite aware of that thank you Bob. But they'd be a lot more hesitant about going after the Ultramarines than the Guard

Put the planet under martial law and call it good? I really, really want to write up a scene of Detta kicking a door down and shooting these fools. He's normally a cool headed person, but the Histans are his family, and he's already seen a lot of them die. If they had told him the truth, less would have been put in the ground.

Space marine should be able to do that as a captain.

I had launched a scouting mission, that was the minor failure I mentioned. Julius got to see his scouting team get murdered by the Orks. If anybody should be enraged it'll be him

So Pavus is running into tyranid space in hopes to find the hive mind, its an open invitation to join him in his quest for answers.

and I need to get Nox off world asap, exterminatus is not something the ork wants to stick around for.

It takes at least henerals/lord generas to do it, I think you'd need a Chapter master

There's some NPC imperial fists, they where in case we ever had a seige, . We never have, there mine but been mpc for a while lol.

Standard battle company, strike cruiser. 1st, 10th elements.
Captain Ramias.

Ship is the Red October. Joke. Ship needs a name, can be
that if you want.


Karak is now busy worrying about two lots of orks and stealers....

I'd be happy to oblige

Anyone can execute a noble. It's whether they can get away with it without any repercussions.

Also, I'll be the first to throw my lot in with chazz and the Nemesa away team. I hope he can roll well.

I'm going to look bad if I don,t go now....

While we're still considering a way to kill some nobles, what if we kill them, but it's officially marked as KIA due to an unforseen ork attack. It'd suit them right, after what they've all done for the crusade.

Ok, orks on my flank, I think I might keep the eye out on the rear whilst you go exploring. Plus I can slow my pace for abit

May have busy time coming.

BlackJack, it would be pretty easy for me to take care of your little noble problem...just remember you never heard pleas for help

That, my friend, is called politics.

Oh don't worry, we'll come for you eventually. The Ultramarines will not forget the suffering the Orks caused us.

I'm nearby, but does not say I have to help...

But I could back a application for Marshall law.

So, got a chunk up. Minor loss, my regiment is pretty fethed, but we think we might have found the tau leader.

Also introduced a new character. Hopefully Nasira will be more interesting to read than Amir.

And you even slipped in a meme

I'm liking Acting-Colonel Nasira already. Well handled, Tainted.

Would it be too much to ask for her and Aurelius to bump into one another somewhere along the way?

Ah, I love the machinations that are going on already. Will Amir live to return to the front? Who knows?

Thanks for the positive comments! I felt left out with all the sneaky backstage plotting and thought I'd put in some power play of my own.

It's certainly a possibility. I'd like her to meet Pavus at some point, I think they'd get on well together, but we'll have to wait and see if she survives Julla...

Anyone mind if I let templers rest on border patrol, and write odd chunk as imperial fists 3rd joining the big push.

Templers are trying to keep the stealers contained and such.

Still right but let then back burner a tad for the big push.
