Stage 3 Operation Deathwatch
Deathwatch Location: Sept World Dry’Cten
Stage 3 Objective: Gain Orbital Control
Operation Deathwatch Stage 3 Beginning
The planet hung there, like a Jewel in the black inky space. Above it hung an Orbital station, as well as several ships, which had grey red hulls. The ships seemed to be based around the station, as if this was the only way for them to get through.
On the Bridge of the Battle Barge Anger and Fury, Force Commander Invictus stood, his power armour the Black and Silver of the Steel Panther Legion. Across his back, a Warhammer was strung, and at his waist, a bolt Pistol hung. Across his shoulders was draped the fur of a massive Panther. He looked on the forward screen, then to the Holoplate behind him. It showed his fleet, a Battle Barge, Two Strike Cruisers and 6 Escorts. He looked at his Enemy, positioned around that station, not even aware of his presence, he scorned their foul Bodies.
“Captain Orydess,” he said, his voice powerful. “Inform the Reborn Vengeance and the Just Punishment to move, wide formation. The Escorts will form up around this craft, the other two will hit the Far side of the planet with Broadside, while we destroy the Station.”
“Sir…there is nothing on the other side of the planet, a few Cities, and a few farms, but that’s it.” Orydess said.
“Exactly Captain, Tell the Two Cruisers to destroy all cities and anything that can be used as a base, we want this planet for its Industrial base, as well as the farms. Which are on this side of the planet. I do not want to have to fight an extended war. What we don’t need we shouldn’t waste time conquering.” Came the disappointed reply.
“Of Corse my Lord, Forgive me. Orders have been given, we are beginning Stage three of the Operation.”
Operation Deathwatch Begin, 20 Minutes after the Fleet Exit Warp.
Invictus watched the fleet before him. The Xeno fleet had engaged, trying to keep out of his range, but it had been for naught. He had not cared about their pathetic fleet, He cared about the Station. As the Second Escort had fallen, he received word that his Strike Cruisers had begun, and they would hit the retreating enemy fleet from behind, the section where they lacked major power. He smiled, everything was going to plan, major targets had been neutralized on the Planets far side, and he would soon have the station under his control.
“My Lord. We are in range of the Enemy fleet, and our Boarding pods have range on their station.” Orydess said. He watched the Commander, who smiled, taking the Warhammer from his back and smiling.
“Time to work then. Captain, you will Relay information to me on my command, until then, you’re in command.” He looked hard at the captain. “Don’t fail me!”
With that, he placed his helmet on and left, heading to the Boarding Pod. Then the pods launched, within their tubes the sound drowned out all others, but in the pod, there was little sound, at least not until the pod smashed into the hull of the Station. Then there was the sound of the thing ripping through armour. Invictus smiled, his body ready inside the TDA Armour. The sound of the Armour Ripped and launched out. Before the Doors had opened, he was jumping, and when they did, he was coming through.
He saw the Humans, holding Alien weapons, and screamed in Rage. They consorted with Unsanctioned Xenos! How Dare they! As he entered, he fired the Flamer, which burned them, while his hammer came gliding down, smashing a man into the wall with such force the wall itself buckled. The Terminators Following him fired as well, cutting a swath through the enemy. Across the Station, he could see in his HUD display their locations. They would cleanse the station. He and his troops would capture the command station, and then the enemy would be at his mercy.
They continued their advance, in the close conditions the Enemy had no advantage of Range, and their rifles barely scratched the Armour they wore. Flame swept through the station, burning those that got in the way. Invictus had chosen his strike team to arrive fairly close to the Command deck, so he and his men where there within a few minutes. The fire fight on the Bridge was gruelling, and three of his brethren fell before they had control. Once they did, Invictus took over the main computer, and hooked up to the Anger and Fury.
“Orydess, give me an Update, now!” he said into his Vox.
“The Enemy ships ran into our Cruisers, what’s left is planet side, the escape pods lacked warp engines. One Messenger pod did escape, we couldn’t catch the damn thing. But otherwise, space is ours. Stage 3 was a Success, shouldn’t be to long before Stage 4 is able to be done.”
“It will be soon, just wait for the station to mop up, then we begin the attack. For now, at ease, keep combat Alert. If that messenger pod brings reinforcements I want to be ready.” He sighed, placed his Warhammers head on the ground and knelt. Then, he began his prayer.
“I thank the Reborn Emperor for this..."
