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.
This chapter is a sort of progress report on the invasion. Jonas&Co will enter the temple in the next chapter. I am sorry but I haven't stocked up on the chapters because of the exams...

warhammerlover: Angel and co are not strong enough on their own. I have to augment them... even Illyria because she is weakened... they were to be temp characters anyway.
awilla the hun: Yes, the war between the Warhammer races continues on despite the invasion.

Chapter 47: Invasion in progress
The Imperial worlds fell by dozens and the whole of the Gargosia subsector was completely taken over but for a handful of planets still under the Imperial control. For those worlds not yet under the occupation, they were not yet invaded. The dragons had driven out the alien forces from the sector, claiming and cleansing every world they found in their path. As the days passed, the dragons began to venture out from the Gargosia sector into the neighbouring sectors, and the Imperial Navy in those sectors were not ready to meet the full scale invasion of the Dracoranians.

On D334-34C3, the third planet of D334-34C system, a marginally unimportant planet with very primitive culture, faced the first Dracoranian invasion into the Logash sector. The dragon flew above the cities, instilling fear among men. The only thing that held this fragile primitive world together of bronze-age technology was the religion of the God Emperor, but when the dragon appeared and loudly denounced their God Emperor, several of the planet's major nations changed their allegiance, forcing the planet into a great civil war.

Ork world of Mun'Kaal, once a prosperous Imperial world that eventually fell into the hands of the feral Orks, was under attack. The Space Marine-like Dominion Marines waded through the tall grass of the dead cities. The broad streets between the crumbled buildings were filled with the sound of fire-fight, and the shouts of the Orks.
Three Goliaths moved down a main street escorted by a dozen Dominion Marines and four Firebats. As the sun reached the peak, with a great roar, nineteen Orks came out from the narrow side streets and charged. Their thick green muscles flexed and their powerful glands pumped adrenaline into every corner of their body. Firng the crude Ork bolters aimlessly, the Orks went for the close combat, ignoring the hail of bullets.
The Dominion Marines reacted calmly as if they were expecting the Orks. Raising their Gauss rifles, they formed a line and then they fired. Small but heavy depleted uranium shells launched themselves at the Orks, tearing their muscles apart and turning the Orks into bloody pulp. The Goliaths sprang into action. Powering up their miniguns, they fired into the Orks, shredding them. The Firebats did not stand back either. A field of fire covered the ground between the Orks and the Dominion forces, burning whatever was on it.
Just as the Orks were fully engaged into the field of combat, a dozen Reapers jumped off from the rooftops and landed behind the Orks, firing their guns. Taken by surprise, the Ork scout party crumbled as the panic and confusion set afoot in their tiny brains. The day belonged to the Dominion and whichever dragon they served.

The Jaffa army moved toward the hills. They could not see the enemy on the hills. They thought it was strange but they were all over a hundred years old and well experienced in combat. They trusted their numbers. They marched. As they walked over the hill, they saw the vast defences of the Imperial Guard 223th Bailian Regiment before them. A low concrete wall rising about a meter from the ground and it stretched for a kilometer or so and about 50 meters thick. On the wall were a hundred entrenched heavy weapons teams lined up 50 by 2. The fifty in the front were armed with heavy bolters while the back row had equal part mix of lascannons and autocannons.
To the both side of the wall were the tanks. On each side of the wall were six Leman Russ tanks with a single Baneblade behind each group. In between the tanks, between the heavy weapons and behind the wall were squads of Imperial Guardsmen. There were nearly five thousand Imperial Guardsmen standing ready to fight the Jaffa. About a kilometer behind them all were ten Basilisks protected by ten squads of Imperial Guardsmen.
The commander of the planet's defenders, General Unarine Shitake, watched from the rear of the Imperial Guardsmen squads, surrounded by three Kasrkin squads. He smiled as the two hundred or so Jaffa charged down the hill and then get wiped down by the heavy bolters of the heavy weapons teams and the autocannons. The crude metal armours of the Jaffa could not stop the powerful and large caliber ammo of the heavy bolters. They were mowed down without even the chance to fire their weapons. The Imperial Guardsmen cheered as the enemy fell.
Suddenly, the local Imperial Navy ship reported.
"General! We are detecting a lot of life signs approaching your position, sir."
"Probably the enemy reinforcements. How many?"
"About a hundred thousand, sir. Also, there are several smaller space vessels approaching your positions. The tech-priests believe that they are bombers and fighters. You may want to protect yourselves, sir."
Shitake cringed. Then he saw seven large egg-shaped vessels flying toward them. He growled.
"Take them down!"
He somehow felt that he would not be able to hold his position. This became more apparent after ten minutes. One hundred Kull Warriors appeared above the ridgeline. The heavy bolters and lascannons fired but did not hurt the Kulls much. Only the autocannons damaged them by throwing them off with explosions. The Kull Warriors descended upon the wall, firing their wrist weapons at the heavy weapons teams, killing the Imperial Guards manning them. Following the Kull Warriors were thousands of Jaffa, rushing at the Imperial Guards. Between the Jaffa were the one of the few advancements that the dragons allowed the Goa'uld, the staff cannons mounted on hover vehicles. Imperial Guards killed thousands upon thousands but the Jaffa kept on coming. There were simply too many.
Over the next few days, the planet of Bailia, one of the main Imperial Barracks Worlds at the edge of Ultima Segmentum began to face systematic destruction. The hundreds of metropolis that dotted the planet's landmass began to fall one by one. The number of Imperial Guards of the planet, which began with 37 regiments, over 275 thousand Imperial Guardsmen, began to diminish as the 1.23 million strong Jaffa supported by three thousand Kull Warriors, crushed each of the defending regiments one by one.

Planet Brak'Nul, a colony of Eldar, hidden among the great fields of asteroids in the solar system, was under attack. Upon receiving the distress call, the Eldar world of Biel-Tan answered the call. One of the most powerful and aggressive among the Eldar Craftworlds, the warriors of Biel-Tan came through the ancient Webway like a cloud of vengeance, ready to wreak havoc on the enemy. Thousands of warriors arrived to aid the pitiful defence force of the planet's colonists and they prepared defences.
Guardian squads marched down the narrow and strange Eldar streets in large numbers and the Warp Spiders teleported in from one rooftop to another in their squads. The Eldar warriors filled the single city the local Eldars have constructed over the past nine centuries. Though there was only one, it was massive and it was purely Eldar. As a construct of the former glory of the Eldar Empire, this city was a reminder of the good days. The locals prepared to defend it with everything they had, and the warriors of Biel-Tan prepared to defend it with vigorous aggression.
As the Eldar fleet of nearly eighty ships prepared themselves, a hyperspace window opened and spat out three Super Star Destroyers, 15 Victory Class Star Destroyers, 21 Venators, 45 Acclamators, 5 Apophis motherships and 125 Ha'taks. As the Empire's star destroyers fired their numerous laser cannons at the Eldar fleet, the goa'uld ships moved in. The Ha'taks moved in groups of fives and each Apophis motherships were escorted by ten Ha'taks each, and they moved in a coordinated strike pattern, weaving in and out between the Eldar ships, raining down the plasma upon them.
Individually, the Ha'taks did not do much damage, but combined with the Eldar shield bombarded by the Empire's fleet and the numerical superiority of the Ha'taks, the weapons of the Ha'taks began to explode upon the Eldar ships' hulls, tearing them apart. Just as the fight was intensifying, another hyperspace window opened near the planet and twenty five Ha'taks appeared. As soon as they appeared, they began bombarding the planet surface.

The Venator Star Destroyers and the Acclamator assault ships launched their fighters and the LAAT gunships. The LAATs were filled with Clone troopers and guarded by the fighters, these gunships evaded the firepower of the Eldar ships.
"Captain! The first attack group reports that they are in the planned projectory, sir!"
"Very well, sergeant! Weapons officer!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Redirect port weapons and make a hole in their ship."
"Yes, sir!"
The Venator class pasued its firing for a moment as the turrets turned and the cannons reloaded. Then they fired in a synchronised attack, concentrating their firepower into a single point of the Eldar ship's hull. The Eldar ship was bombarded by a group of Ha'taks on the other side and its shielding was reaching a critical point from the attacks when the Venator class that was right next to it did this. The shield gave way and dozens upon dozens of turbolaser cannons and laser cannons tore into the hull, while the torpedoes exploded around it, crumbling the structural integrity of the outer hull.
The LAATs entered the large hole made by the Venator, meanwhile firing its own weapons as it entered the Eldar vessel. The first LAAT moved in quickly, followed by three others, and fired their weapons into the Eldar crew who huddled behind crates and pillars. They landed, and the Clones came jumping out, their helmet protecting them from the vacuum. As another six LAATs finished their delivery, the Eldar ships's automated systems began to close the hole. The Bonesingers sang their hearts out attempting to close the gaping hole in the hull.
The Clones, of the R34Delta6 'Black Angel' Battalion, raised their rifles as their feet touched the strange deck of the Eldar ship. The Lieutenant raised his finger and pointed. The rest of the 16 men squad raised their rifles and began to follow. They spent about a minute into the ship, when they noticed an Eldar. The Lieutenant pointed his finger at him and fired. Then suddenly, the Eldar disappeared just as the Clones squeezed off one shot. Eldar appeared suddenly from behind and fired the strange projectiles at the Clone bringing up the rear. The Clone screamed as his armour and his flesh were shredded. Other Clones quickly turned fired at the Eldar but the Warp Spider disappeared again.
Lieutenant raised his hand and the Clones quickly moved into positions. Five brought up the rear, while the remaining ten including the Lieutenant took point. As they moved forward through the narrow corridors they heard strange whispers. They ignored it. Then the Warp Spider appeared again, this time from the side. The Eldar grabbed the Clone by the helmet and thrusted his weapon under it, cutting through the neck. Unfortunately, the Clone Lieutenant was ready to shoot and ready to sacrifize one of the Clones to set a trap. Just as the Warp Spider prepared to jump away, the Clones fired. Within seconds, the Eldar warrior was made into a pincushion with a lot of holes. Satisfied with the execution of the Eldar, the Clones continued on to create more havoc within the Eldar ship.
