Quick and Dirty: Battle of Nermuj

The Dark angels continue to their struggle on Urt against the craftworld of Yuula-Lith. With the assets of Company master Indomiel and his Dark Angels falling like dominoes a strike has been ordered against the eldar that have been holed up in the Nermuj Valley. Intelligence reports that the the ruined city lies on the path to manufactorum powered by the Volpot hydronics station, and the eldar are using it as a staging area from which to prepare their assault on the regional capital. Indomiel has determined that the city must be retaken. This mission we used a mission from the Dark Angels book but we tried to adapt it to maelstrom scoring. The results were interesting...

We rejoin our heros on the planet of  Urt, were the defense is going extremely poorly. The farseer Sekra has led her craftworld brethren deep into the equitorial region. to claim the city of Volpot on the banks of the Manaus river. Blasted from orbit by relentless D-shelling. The defenders of the city are led by Comisar Vansislav and have been augmented by marines from the Dark Angels 4th company and the company master indomiel, along with the Chief Libarian Ezekiel. The dryseason has come and the eldar have decided to press their advantage. The sentry guns of the dam, once purred with life, but but the damaged dam power has been cut down by diversion of a stray D cannon shell  yet the dam's ancient structure remains intact. The craftworld attackers lined up behind the giant edifice, while the defenders took refuge in the city.

I bring a tale of utmost woe. The outer defense of the shrineworld of Urt, has been brazenly assaulted by the eldar. A craftworld describing themselves as the Yula-lih have sent a brought down a battle company led by Sek-ra a farseer of note. The dark angels were charged with the moving the vital supplies from forward operating base Vengeance, Meanwhile terminator libraian Aggripus would assist the tacticals by employing a suprise deepstrike.
