Void Keeper Wars - Warhammer 40K

This is a crossover between Warhammer 40K and StarGate, StarWars, StarCraft. I always wanted a new race for Warhammer 40K. The new race is an amalgamation of the Galactic Empire of StarWars, Goa'uld Empire of StarGate, and the Terran and Protoss from StarCraft. I will mostly be using the Clone Wars era for the StarWars, and post Ori-invasion for the Goa'uld, and units from both StarCraft and StarCraft 2. I don't own anything from Warhammer 40K, StarGate, StarWars, StarCraft. I am just writing it for fun.

I decided to change the quiz into a competition of a character creation. Whoever comes up with most unique character will win, and I will be forced to write that character into the story no matter what I plan... a good way to add a little twist.

Don't forget to leave comments!!

Chapter 32: War Spreads

In the former Chaos system of Eracikel, the forces of Chaos were all but driven out. All four inhabited planets have fallen into the hand of the Black Elder Dragon Xesrakanos and chased down by the traitorous Converted Chaos forces, the few remaining Chaos daemons and Chaos Marines made their last stand on the moon of Eracir, the second moon of Eracikel IV. It was also the only place where the Warp Portal was still active and undamaged by the dragon's power. Led by the daemon Sho'Evrask, the servant of Khorne and the Lord of Blood Centaur Daemons, the loyal Chaos forces attempted to bolster their forces by bringing more daemons and Chaos Marines through the portal. Hundreds came through every hour, but the orbital bombardments of the Dracoranians were causing as many casualties.

Protected by a powerful shield generator, the Warp Portal became the only safe haven for the forces of Chaos, and under that bubble of shield, the Chaos Marines once again prepared for battle. They felt that their defeat was nothing more than a temporary setback which would be mended once the reinforcements came. Afterall, as long as the Warp Portal stood, the Chaos would continue to stand strong. The dragon however, already knew of this from his newly converted servants.

Despite his power and offer, the daemons did not convert for they were the creatures of the Chaos Gods and could not truly be turned. It was the Chaos Marines and the cultists of the Damned and Lost who turned to the dragon. The dragon was indeed powerful as he cut off one planet after another from the Warp and enveloped them in Mana. Great pillars with giant Mana stones were erected across the conquered worlds and they formed a great field of space that could not be breached by the Warp. The Chaos Gods had no domain there as the Mana was like Warp but it was also unlike Warp, and utterly beyond the Chaos Gods.

Under the command of Valmoran the Black Sword, once Chaos Marine turned a Guardian of the Elder Black Dragon Xesrakanos, the Converted Marines assaulted the moon absolutely unwilling to relent in their attack against their former brothers. Blood spilled everywhere as the Converted, empowered and strengthened by the Mana flowing in between the pillars, killed and gutted the loyal Chaos Marines and the rest of the Chaos forces. The rank of the Converted grew as the planets were cut off from the Warp, but to Xesrakanos' surprise, the number was quite small. Only a fifth of the Chaos Marines had turned and a third of the Damned and the Lost.

Upon the planet Gbrinsia, the Dracoranian forces under the command of the White Dragon Ferentris, began an exhaustive campaign against the undying legion of the Necrons. The Necrons, being one of the oldest and powerful races in this galaxy, was not only powerful, but they were also prepared. Thousands of Necrons Warriors slouched toward the Clones and Jaffa who outnumbered them ten to one, and they fought. At first, the superior number and superior firepower of the Dracoranian forces cut down the Necrons, but even as the time passed, the Necrons simply returned to their 'un-life' and continued to fight. Indeed, this planet was a Tomb World, where legions after legions of Necrons still slept underneath the barren hills.

Clone Colonel 'Dipper' D49-A0412, commanding officer of the 11th Company of the H3 Regiment, led his heavily armed Clone troops followed by a dozen AT-TE and five five unit squads of AT-RTs, guarding a dozen heavy cargo transports. His orders were to deliver the supplies to the encampment E42N45 and then to reinforce the frontline, which was under heavy assault by the Necrons. The Clones were not the most effective against the Necrons, but they were at least more numerous than the Jaffa, who were even less effective. Indeed, the Jaffa were used upon the worlds where there at least were some 'civilian' population to maintain the order when the Clones or the Dominion forces fight the enemy.

Only the Kull Warriors and their powerful wrist blasters were effective enough against the Necrons, and even they were only marginally effective. The Kull Warriors were few and were sent only to several key positions, and the Necrons usually overwhelmed them unless the Kulls were with a vast number of support troops. At least the Necrons did not absorb energy weapons like the Kull Warrior armour did. The powerful Necron Gauss weapons tore apart and flayed the Clones and their armour alike. The plasma rifles of the Clones merely scratched the surfaced of the Necrons' metal bodies. It was through the use of heavy weapons such as the AT-TEs that the Clones were able to beat down the Necrons eventually.

One of the AT-RT scouts reported to Dipper.

"Colonel, we have detected a small force of Necrons. We are detecting six Wraiths guarding three Destroyers, a squad of Immortals, three or four squads of Necron Warriors. They are not heading for us, but at our current speed, we will intercept them in thirty minutes."

"Stand by, Clone."

"Yes, sir."

Dipper gestured the Clone Officers to come over to them. A dozen officers gathered around him. Dipper brought out a holomap of the area and placed the Necron positions on the map.

"Our standing orders are to destroy any Necrons we can, but we also have orders to deliver the supplies. Lieutenant Blink, take the supplies and half the troops and the vehicles. I will take the rest and fight the Necrons while you go past them."

"Yes, sir."

The troops under Dipper's command quickly marched and set themselves in a trenched position facing west. They placed sandbags; instant concrete blocks, and dug some ground. They positioned themselves in fortified positions between the six AT-TEs that were standing at an interval. The AT-TEs were also heavily manned and Clones positioning themselves on the giant walking machines. With their guns poised to the west where the enemy was coming, the Clones waited as the cargo transports slowly marched behind them moving north. Once the cargos were through, Dipper called in the AT-RTs who were keeping an eye on the Necrons.

"This is Dipper, engage the Necrons at a range and draw them to our position. We will batter them down here."

"Acknowledged, sir."

It was about five minutes before they saw the four AT-RTs running toward them. Dipper cringed inside his helmet as he realised that one of the AT-RTs were lost, and rather than feeling for this fallen Clone brother, he felt the loss of the AT-RT and its firepower. Dipper spoke into the comm.

"All Clones, ready to fire. Fire at will."

As soon as the AT-RTs got past the sand bags and turned around to fight, they saw the Necrons. The Heavy Troopers and Heavy Weapons Specialists fired first with their heavy weapons including missile launchers. Then the Clones fired their blaster rifles. Thousands of small blue plasma shots flew toward the Necrons and began to strike them, most of the simply bouncing off and the rest singeing the metalic bodies of the Necrons. The range of the Clone weapons were longer and the Necrons were forced to wade through the Clone attacks just to get to their own weapons range.

It was a silent battle. Neither side spoke, but they simply fought. The Clones threw their thermal detonators and it blasted several Necrons into crumpled scraps, but about half of the fallen Necrons picked themselves up again. Then the Jet Troopers moved in. Two dozen Jet Troopers flew into the air and fired their EMP Launchers. The Necrons who were hit by the EMP simply stopped in their tracks, but about about half a minute, they reactivated. However, those thirty seconds were all they needed. The Jet Troopers quickly stuck thermal detonators in the cavities of the Necrons and moved on. The detonators blasted apart the Necrons.

The Necrons Wraiths were more difficult. As the Necrons came into the range of their own weapons, the Wraiths began to take more active role in fighting the Clones. They hovered toward the Clones and jumped on the Clones Troopers. The Clone Troopers silently fired their blaster rifles at the Wraith as the Wraith struck a Clone with its massive claws. The claws sliced through the pristine white armour, and came out the other end with blood on them. A Wraith stood in the middle of six Clones and spun around, its claws cutting up the heads of the Clones. Then a Jet Trooper came up and fired his EMP Launcher. It instantly shut down the Wraith, and Clones immediately jumped on it, firing upon it as they placed their feet on the Wraith to keep it down.

The Wraith reactivated after thirty seconds but it was too late then. Even the durable 'living metal' could not withstand that much firepower. The Clones guns had penetrated through the outer shell and and into the inner workings of the Wraith, disrupting its abilities. A Clone stood right on top of the struggling Wraith and fired into the face, eventually cracking it and burying it. Then, as the Clone turned, a Necron Warrior came up behind them. It fired a shot at a Clone, flaying a chunk of the white armour and a lot of the flesh. Other Clones instantly reacted and fired at it, but only succeeded in pushing it back a bit. Another Clone was flayed as the Clone who fired directly into the Wraith's face took out his thermal detonator and jumped at the Necron. The Necron racted surprisingly fast and waved its gun. The sharp end of the weapon bit into the Clone and its torso crashed into the Necron. As he was dying, the Clone placed the detonator just under the neck of the Necron.

AT-TEs and AT-RTs used their superior firepower to take down the Necrons. The Destroyers used their powerful weapons to take down two AT-TEs but they were too few. The laser cannons tore apart a Destroyer and the projectile cannon buried the pieces into the ground. However, one of the Destroyers was not as thoroghly destroyed and its pieces assembled themselves back into the Destroyer. That was not the end of the Clone attacks. Four Clones jumped on its back and fired into the Destroyer everywhere, as the laser cannon emplacements blasted into the torso of the Destroyer.

Just as the Clones were flayed alive by the Necron Immortals, the ground shook and a squad of flayed ones jumped out from the ground. The Clones reacted instantly and fired at them. The Flayed Ones used their claws to tear apart the Clones as the AT-RTs fired their laser cannons at them. Three Clone officers, carrying quad-turbolaser blasters, marched down upon the Flayed Ones and began blasting them with the powerful weapon. Tearing apart the Flayed Ones one by one, the Clones returned their attention to the rest of the Necron forces.

The casualties were heavy. Almost half of the Clones how ambushed the Necrons were dead and several AT-TEs and AT-RTs were destroyed as well. They also knew from the disappearing Necron corpses, that they were completely destroyed and will be revived. Dipper called in the cargo transports.

"This is Colonel Dipper, Blinks, come in."

There was no answer. Shaking off a forboding feeling, Dipper and his Clones looked to the north. Dipper whispered what everyone was feeling.

"Oh, shit!"

Three Necron Monoliths, as the pinnacles of the Necron power, slowly moved south toward the Clones, leaving destruction behind their wake. Swearing, Dipper took out his blaster pistols and spoke into the comm.

"Clones, we die today, but we were born to fight! To battle!"

I hope it was fun. Anything to fix, then post a comment, thanks.
