"The devil," said the Felaran, "the devil brought you."

I saw the Human inhale deeply, it's chest swelling before it took a wad of burning brown paper from its lips.

"No, buddy," the Human said. "We're the ones at the helm. The devil's just along for the ride."

"What kind of people do they think we are? Is it possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the world will never forget?"

I've got some more questions;

Will they be hostile, and if so to who?

Will the different universes know of each other in video games, and if so, who will remember.

Sorry, but I have to...

Perseus Veil/ Tikkun/ 3rd planet/ Adas

2181 CE

Field Marshal Ajax didn't want to open his eyes, even though he knew he should, what with the alarms blaring and the voice telling him that he was free-falling.

With a monumental effort, he cast a quick peek, only for his eyes to shoot open at the sight of a quickly approaching planet.

Scrambling, he jabbed the auto-repair button on the bottom left corner of the projection in front of him showing the planet fast approaching. He panicked slightly when it didn't activate, it certainly didn't help that the screen started to turn to static with a slight orange glow around the edge.

Bursting from the strap that kept him secure and lunged for the manual over-ride, depressing the plunger to 'inject' his ACU with nanites that would automatically activate when they were released. Acting like a health booster but for giant robots.

After he pressed the plunger Ajax climbed back into his seat and connected up to his suit, hoping to ease the landing as much as he could.

Around the suit, holes opened up to let nozzles poke through. The nozzles would burn an intense amount of fuel in short bursts, slowing his decent into 'manageable' levels as he fell. 'Manageable' meaning survivable in the loosest possible term.

Ajax braised himself as space debris bounced off his suit, to enter atmosphere, casting a quick glance at the counter in the corner of the screen showed how far down he had left to go until he hit the ground.

With a thought, the screen scrolled to the side, revealing his ACU and its repair progress.

Ajax winced slightly at the projected possible damage at the current momentum he was falling with. It wasn't good, even with the nanites. Scrolling back to the original screen, Ajax eyes widened and he reacted instinctively.

Rolling the ACU until his feet were facing downwards again, Ajax just managed to activate the emergency thrusters as he passed the 1000 metre mark, slowing the momentum enough that he wouldn't have to make manual field repairs in unknown territory with evidence of a battle in orbit.

Briefly, Ajax wondered how the other two were doing in the descent before realizing that if a battle had taken place in orbit then there would, at least, be a satellite in the debris field. Just in case.

Shaking the thoughts away, for now, Ajax focused back on surviving the impact.

With a jolt, the Field Marshal realized just how close to the ground he had gotten. Acting quickly, he mentally commanded another dose of nanites to swarm the ACU in the hopes that they would be a little more helpful and was pleased to note that a response was given, if a bit slow.

With a quick glance at the screen, he was pleased to see that he still had the Nano-repair and the resource allocating systems were still active and not really surprised to see both of his engineer drones gone. At least he had plenty of nanites and enough resources to jump start a base in a possible hostile environment.

With a start, Ajax realized his personal A.I hadn't said anything after he had woken up.

His musing was cut short by the impact on the planet he was falling towards, which didn't end in a nuclear explosion. He would have been relived if he hadn't been knocked unconscious by the force of the impact.

While Ajax slowly recovered from the impact, another two objects landed in slightly different fashions.

The first, with a symmetrical design giving it a futuristic look of the Aeon, deployed an extremely strong shield the second it entered atmosphere that lasted until it hit the planet in a greater ground-breaking way than the blocky UEF's.

The second, with a pointed, triangular design giving it a slightly insectoid appearance of the Cybran, teleported just before entering atmosphere resulting in a small, weak explosion of dirt that did little to no damage to either ACU or the surface.

Satellite 45-468: First object's velocity decreased until impact; Energy signature indicates extreme usage of Element Zero; Object should not be intact.

Satellite 45-468: Second object increased energy output; Result in projection of, Query; Energy shield.

Satellite 45-468: Third object increased energy output into extremes; Transported onto surface by instantaneous travel; Similar to Mass Relay.

Satellite 45-468: Life signs detected; 3.

Satellite 45-468: 1 Object moving; Others inactive.

Satellite 45-468: Unknown information; Compiling available information... Compile complete.

Satellite 45-468: Continue observations of 'Unknowns'.

War does not determine who is right... Only who is left.

Today we may say aloud before an awe-struck world: "We are still masters of our fate. We are still captain of our souls."

I wanted to get further into the story but, ehhh.

I have a request to send Ajax to the Horus Heresy period. I don't know much about that period so, if anyone wants to see the Emperor survive and Humanity to prosper slightly in the Warhammer universe, can you give me a hand?
