Maiden of Golgenna - Latest Comments on Maggots in the Meat, part 4 - Those that Walk http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/index.php/2DH/?disp=comments en-US http://backend.userland.com/rss 60 tancred in response to: Maggots in the Meat, part 4 - Those that Walk Sun, 10 Oct 2010 07:24:18 +0000 c1734@http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/ The evacuation of Orlankan ended up being described in the Shades on Twilight thread. http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/index.php/2DH/2010/09/08/maggots-in-the-meat-part-4-those-that-walk#c1734 tancred in response to: Maggots in the Meat, part 4 - Those that Walk Thu, 07 Oct 2010 13:00:43 +0000 c1715@http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/ The Deathwatch commences their version of tactical evaluation. One 50-man battle company is deployed by drop-pods. That's ten pods, plus twenty more pods that have no marines on board, just support weapons manned by gun servitors. They serve as both fire support and decoys in case the enemy somehow manages to intercept the pods. Preceding the landing is a suppressive barrage of heavy weapons launched from the cruiser above - for the most part the Cathedral is spared, but several city blocks around it are hit pretty hard. Then the Marines are on the ground, fanning out, searching for targets, securing the drop zone. Several slaught and many of their foul flesh-constructs are taken apart by a mix of mass-reactive-explosive and plasma bolt shells. Following this first wave is the rest of the company and their support assets - heavy weapons, vehicles, even a venerable dreadnought - carried in the bellies of Thunderhawk gunships. It is a glorious sight! One that is cut short when Maxi and the vox-carrying soldier are both hit by a necro-beam from one of the remaining slaught - a big monster that has so far defied any attempts at shooting him. As darkness claims Maxi he can witness the other victim's flesh turn to rot...even as the Astartes move towards the cathedral, blades drawn, hungry to put an end to the beast... http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/index.php/2DH/2010/09/08/maggots-in-the-meat-part-4-those-that-walk#c1715 kuhnrat in response to: Maggots in the Meat, part 4 - Those that Walk Thu, 07 Oct 2010 12:31:46 +0000 c1714@http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/ (OCC: When Haxtes OCC on Maxis post Maxi OCC back.)

"Agent Maximilian Elazar Dante, Tancred's Cadre Ordos Hereticus ready to send report. Acknowledge receiver." http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/index.php/2DH/2010/09/08/maggots-in-the-meat-part-4-those-that-walk#c1700 tancred in response to: Maggots in the Meat, part 4 - Those that Walk Thu, 07 Oct 2010 10:42:31 +0000 c1697@http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/ Some sort of jamming is in effect - Maxi is pretty sure that his reception is better than his outgoing transmissions. Whomever is up there has strong vox-casters on board. You can only hope they have equally sophisticated vox-receivers or they won't be getting your return message. http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/index.php/2DH/2010/09/08/maggots-in-the-meat-part-4-those-that-walk#c1697 kuhnrat in response to: Maggots in the Meat, part 4 - Those that Walk Wed, 06 Oct 2010 11:23:11 +0000 c1693@http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/ Maxi order the vox operator to give Lt. Rabalias the message that Inquisitorial forces has arrived in orbit and will relive us soon. (I'm not sure if Maxi believes this himself but it can't hurt to give a morale boost.) Moving fast to the vox Maxi reports: "Agent Maximilian Elazar Dante, Tancred's Cadre Ordos Hereticus ready to send report. Acknowledge receiver." In short Maxi will report. Maxi's position defending Cathedral holding. Status Planet Unknown. Status Orlankan, overrun not lost. Enemy information: numbers unknown nonhuman / xeno / bio-weapon. Can be destroyed by concentrated fire. Some armed with xeno tech type unknown rays. Possible bio-hazzardious contaminations. Suggest tactical sweep with hoppers / dropships for tactic evaluation.

He's asking for an update on the situation in and around Orlankan. http://www.twilightpeaks.net/blogs/index.php/2DH/2010/09/08/maggots-in-the-meat-part-4-those-that-walk#c1692
