"Captain! Sensor sectors one though five have been triggered sir. Looks like another ork assault sir".
" Corporeal activate all emplacements in those sectors now. Get sniper towers alert and bag those sons of a bitches out". Yelled Captain Ortho.
Sniper Tower-Sector Three
Private Vlad and Boydette looked out across the bleak landscape of the corner of the mountain outpost. Vlad saw the three wartraks coming along with about forty orks running across the valley floor, like a green tide. Two heavy bolter emplacements opened fire. One of the wartraks erupted in flames but the horde of orks kept coming. Overwhelming the heavy bolters resulted in their destruction, but Vlad and Boydette had to focus now. The orks had finally got in range of their sniper rifles, which in turn meant that the orks had entered the mine field that is laid in each sector. The front lines of orks as well as the two wartraks were destroyed. Both privates took aim and opened fire bring an ork down with every shot. Vlad had just killed the Nob and the rest of the ork mob turned and fled back into the mountains. When vox chatter erupted in Vlad's ear. " They have taken sector one and two fall back and alert armory one this buggers are pouring though oh my god". The rest was lost in static. Both privates turned around to look behind them and saw what would shake them for the rest of their short lives.
There was Captain Ortho and the only remaining men of the outpost had lined up out of the main building and were getting ready to fire into the orks. This is not what scared the two privates though; it was the enormous tide of orks that was coming out of sector one and two. The ork horde must have been at least up to five thousand orks. Vlad knew that Ortho and his two squads would not leave this outpost alive. Vlad and Boydette saw the two squads line up in a line formation so that they could being all their guns to bear at the same time. Though the scope of his sniper Vlad could see Waagh banners in the horde. Vlad knew that this planet would be doomed, but determined to help his fellow soldiers him and Boydette got within range of the ork horde. About two hundred yard from where the Captain had his men. The two snipers accounted for ten kills each before the heavy bolter of Alpha squad opened up. Then both Alpha and Charlie squads fired one volley after another. Mortar fire suddenly hit the two squads and men flew everywhere. Then the battle was lost as the ork lines collided with the remaining humans.
Captain Ortho knew that the outpost was lost once sector one and two were overrun. The men stationed there had fought countless ork raids. A whole platoon was stationed there and was wiped out. Now it was just him along with his retinue and twenty men against thousands of orks. Ortho knew that once the orks overran this outpost that the rest that were on the outskirts of the giant mountain range would soon follow. He also hoped that word would reach the armory that was in the town at the foot of Mt.Kimlaya. This armory had a least a dozen Leman Russ tanks parked there for quick response to an ork raid.
Ortho quickly turned his attention back to the incoming ork tide. The heavy bolter of Alpha squad opened up and was followed by nineteen lasgun shots. With out warning mortar fire hit their position. At least eight men including two from Ortho's own retinue were killed outright and two more were wounded. Then the orks smashed into the human lines. Before Ortho knew what hit them he was face to face with two snarling orks. Ortho ducked under a swing from one of the ork's choppas. The other ork swung his slugga around to catch Ortho in the side of the head. Ortho saw stars as he slowly got up in time to pare an incoming choppa. The ork had enough time to snarl at the captain before the ork was cut in half by Ortho, the remaining ork met a face full of plasma. Ortho quickly spun to look for any remaining men. He saw the Sargent of Charlie squad take out two orks before he was cut in half by a third ork. To Ortho's left four guards men were attempting to fend off an ork Nob, but the Nob's power claw squished one man and the remaining three turned to run only to be blown apart by an incoming shell. The dumb orks Ortho thought still shelling when the main force has moved in. The fresh volley of shells had destroyed the Nob along with twenty other orks and the remaining were confused and were about to turn to run when a massive shape came over the horizon. Ortho knew at once that this raid was led by a warboss.
The warboss pointed his massive choppa at Ortho and uttered a challenge. "You hume come anda fight meas". Ortho knew that he had no choice. So he charged the Warboss but instead of fighting hand to hand, the Warboss opened fire on Ortho quickly killing him. When his head was removed as it was from all the dead guardsmen, there was a look of anger and surprise locked on the face of captain Ortho.
This attack takes place four days before the orks come out in full force on the citizens of Circth
