The battle of Oranos VI
I do not own any WarHammer 40k or anything belonging to gamesworkshop
It is the 41st millennia and the 1st company of The Swords of Ultramar Space Marine chapter is on a routine patrol mission of the planet Oranos VI. Everything was proceeding as normal when…
"Brother Captain, the scout squads have found evidence that the forces of Chaos may be operating on the planet" said a flabbergasted Brother-Sergeant Cassius.
"What, damn Brother-Librarian Lucius have you detected any sort of taint on this planet" asked Brother-Captain Tiberius.
"No, but if the scouts are right then a Chaos Sorcerer would be able to mask their presence from us and the local guardsmen. What did the find exactly Brother Cassius"?
"The three scout squads found 3 squads of Imperial Guard hung, drawn, and quartered with the eight pointed star carved into their foreheads the scouts moved back for they feared corruption".
"If I may interrupt, I will take the scouts, two tactical squads with flamers and purify the site we will then examine it for a short period of time" said Brother-Chaplin Titus.
"Very well take the two scout squads that came back along with Scout-Sergeant Barbarus and cleanse the area, but take Brothers Magnus, Gallus, and Bitus as your body guards" said Tiberius.
Titus then took his bodyguards and other forces west to the site of the murder. Half way they met the remaining scout squad who had remained behind. Titus still had some doubts and hoped his men could handle the forces of Chaos and what ever else that they might find there.
"Scout-Sergeant Barbarus what did you find at the site exactly" asked Titus?
"We were scouting ahead of the company as ordered. 3 squads of scouts with sniper rifles. I was in command of the group and was at the front when we came to the site. We had been hiking for 40 minutes strait over the hard rock when we came to a small crater. There the three guardsmen squads were dead save for one who said to us"…
Please I know you have to kill me but listen to what I have no need to tell you. The three squads you see hear are all that remain of the troops of the 506th Venraland sent here to protect the new colonies. Most of the guardsmen fell under the sway of Chaos very quickly and some time ago. Members of the Black Legion led by a Chaos Sorcerer Coralin and thousands of cultists with traitor guardsmen attacked our landing bases. All three are now under Chaos's control. Please destroy them the one garrison that is the weakest is to the south-west. Please make the destruction of the 506th count, I beg of you avenge our souls".
"He then died and we sent a Vox message to Brother-Sergeant Cassius who got the message to the Captain" finished Barbarus.
"And you trusted that guardsmen word even though he could have been corrupted?" asked Titus.
"Not fully but we do know that the garrison he spoke of is only 40 complete and could be easily captured and should be captured soon if we are to push Chaos from this world".
"Relay the Guardsman's message to the Captain, if he agrees then the rest of the first company will be transported down and we will push Chaos off this world.
