Note I don't own Warhammer so please don't sue me. Also I have an Imperial
Guard army and a Daemon Hunters army for Warhammer 40,000 and I'm a big fan
of both armies.
Hour two-Surface of Valnes III defense facility (2 hundred hours Sol Time):
Mclane watched as the bridge that stretched the length of the lake was dismantled from his high viewpoint on top of the defense facility. All was quite very dark. Time on Valnes III and Sol time were almost on the exact same time. Both had sunrises at relatively the same time and sunsets and close to the same time. Mclane knew his family was back on Terra probably still asleep. He shook his head to clear his mind and turned the amplification on his night vision goggles up. He cued in all units with his comm. They were all in position and ready to fight except for the 5 or so guardsmen finishing up the dismantling of the bridge. He zoomed in on the plains ahead of him and could clearly see the tyranids marching up towards them. He knew that they would not risk attacking from either flank. He ordered all night vision goggles to be switched on and lights to be turned off. His command squad stood next to him. Commissar Leon was there, 5 steel legionnaires by the names of: Lusar, Alex, Jal, Namon, and Yelna were also there (Yelna and Namon made up a heavy bolter team were as Lusar, Alex, and Jal all were armed with standard issue lasguns). Commissar Leon muttered a prayer under his breath. The rest just stood there in silence. Suddenly a young guardsman ran up the stairs to where the 6 of them stood. "Sir," he said, "the bridge has been successfully dismantled!" "Good." Mclane replied. "What's your name sun?" Mclane asked. "Private Jerran Williams sir, I am part of a missile launcher crew in delta squad. My spotter is Private Lurel Stalgen." "Good private. What's that you're wearing around your neck?" Mclane suddenly barked. "Nothing!' Jerran said trying to stuff a glowing crystal necklace out of site. Mclane grabbed his hand and held the necklace to the light of the moon. It was pure crystal and on the end of the chain was the symbol of the Inquisition. Mclane stared. "Were did you get this, son?" He asked. "It...it was my dad's. He gave it to me when I was 6. Said that he always wanted me to join the Inquisition and serve the emperor all my life." Jerran looked at the floor. "Well my boy, one day you may very well be, now get back to your post." Mclane ordered. Just then there was an explosion from the far side of the lake. A biovore had begun shooting. "Now private!" Mclane yelled. Jerran ran off back to his post. "Open up on the beasts at 200 yards!" Mclane yelled over the comm. Mclane saw a brood of termagants sprint up to the far side of the lake and begin shooting and trying to wade forward. Just then a barrage of lasguns rounds, missiles, heavy bolter bolts, hellguns, and a lone lascannon came flying at the leading tyranids. Then Mclane saw gargoyles coming in fast straight for them. About a hundred of the monstrosities flew in tight formation about a hundred feet above the ground. "Now!" Mclane yelled over the comm. at the storm troopers. Suddenly a huge net was flung up in front of the flying gargoyles. All but a few repelled off it and crashed into the water bellow. Then the net was released and the remaining gargoyles came tumbling down to their death in the lake a hundred feet below. There were cheers from the guardsmen on the walls.
As more and more tyranids came to replace the ones that had already fallen Mclane noticed something. No carnifexes, or hive tyrants had been spotted yet. But Mclane also noticed that the lake was beginning to harden. Mclane suddenly realized what was happening. The blood of the gaunts was solidifying the lake, making way for the rest of the army to cross. At that moment three carnifexes lumbered forward and began barraging the wall with fire. "Concentrate fir on the carnifexes! Take them down!" Mclane yelled. His troops complied and several rockets grenades and other explosives rocketed their way. A firefight soon erupted.
