Well, I think Cogger has been resolved, and I think the Gargant still needs killing...

Can we take a moment and appreciate this page number

It is destined to be a dank page, let all relish in the memery that is about to begin.

I should've seen it first...Bugger...

For the Imperium, it seems to be take out the Gargant. However, I think there's been a general lack of objectives or real drive towards a goal (not story - more of a reason to do something).

I can only speak from my perspective, but aside from fulfil an honour pact, I've got no real reason to stay, aside from a retcon I'm working on doing. I think another drive towards a goal could be worked towards when the GMs see it fit.

Crion itself hasn't seen much action, perhaps we can get a group objective there? I don't want Chazz getting left out, and he can handle a group objective a helluva lot better than I can. I can't even write a single chunk with group factions in a reasonable time as of late.

We can have an Eldar hunt...

Hey everyone, it'll be a few days before I post. I need to finish up my existing projects and do a tad bit of research. I'd rather my full attention be on this instead of split.

After reading Gore's post with his crazy Khorne's nutties, I'm researching actual military tactics that could or would be used to deal with such forces? I'm thinking it might better my odds of beating them or at least stalemates, which I'm sorta banking on. Thousands of our forces will probably go out the window but I'm hoping for some interesting encounters.

Did any of you do any military research to help your posts and how you'd approach them for maximum efficiency? And yes, this is Warhammer 40K where most generals spit on actual tactics but I like to think a few rare commanders might actually think about them.

I am an infantryman on the canadian forces, so I have a basic bur decent grasp at how to do military things

Thanks Bob and I may approach you on the subject at some point. Personally, I've read Art of War and studied Vietnam tactics employed by locals and Terrorists tactics. Not that I am one but considering my Mongrel's, it seemed rather fitting. Aside from that, I have working knowledge of psychology and sociology... Though not in the way to deal with blood thirsty psycho's. Hehe, personally, I hope I never have to meet a person like that in real life.

Funny you mention that; last month I was turned down by them... Mind you, I don't blame them considering the influx of recruits they're getting on the economies account. My perscription medication wasn't too they're liking. I assumed destroying the written test and being one of the more physically capable applicants I'd be a shoe in.

How do Canadians fight people? Shoot them in the foot then proceed to say sorry a dozen times in the middle of a firefight?

My Hounds did give their word to help your sharks out with that, although there will be a few bits and bobs to sort out after the gargant

So I'm thinking that maybe a week after the Gargant event after we all sort our stuff out Taranis calls for a hunt.

Sounds good

Ooo, maybe if Iodius and squad joins, we may be able to fix things between the doggies and the builders.

Good idea, the more the merrier

You mean the more to get thrown through a wall?

If you're fighting agile and sneaky xenos, then perhaps you'll need some of the same on your side? You should all know where I'm going with this by now.

So just caught up a bit. An idea for what other factions can be doing, It looks like my post will be modified a bit to fit into Chazz's paradigm but that means for awhile the siege will be down as To be that southerly force of his I am making the IG pull back into a major joint force.

Look, I'm really feeling lazy right now, let's just assume that as the whirlwind of fighting started my TauRellians found it strategically advantageous to retreat

I loss my little skirmish against them and therefore retreated and regrouped. and since that hole was opened up he had to let most of the rest fall away as casualties built up.

I'm feeling so persecuted. Everyone wants me dead for no reason

No reason? Taranis would cough but he's missing part of his throat

You deserved it Kharne.

But why tho

The kroot are pretty neutral, WK. We want everyone dead equally, until someone pays them to want someone else dead more. It's just business, plain and simple. Sweet, delicious business.

Consider yourself hired

What if I pay you more to kill Kharne?

And now I face the time old question of geneseed roasting over an open fire, or Eldar kebabs. The problem WK, is that Ta'lok has a sense of honor, so he'll feel a bit more obligated to side with the Imperials, because he's already done jobs with them. However, if they keep pushing him out then he might not feel these obligations as strongly. He might think himself noble, but he is not one to turn the other cheek when someone slaps him.
