Despoiling the Brick of Scrutiny

 

What a lovely spring day for of spot of mild despoiling to warm oneself up for a forthcoming Black Crusade.

 

Devos IV is not mainstream enough to warrant his personal attention, but hey, he'd too nice a figure to not lavish some care on.

 

 

And as noted, there's always the chance for some hot Crusade action ("Let the Galaxy Burn !")

Is that your helmet on his trophy rack ?

 

This is Lupercal's lieutenant, he knew the Emperor.  Now he's potentially the nemesis of the Imperium of Man.

 

He chose his path, and seems fairly content to follow it.  It's good to be able to take pleasure in one's work. 

Inside the city under siege

 

 

Amongst those left in Xphonica once the city is encircled by the invaders from outer space, are those who were amongst the irregular groupings who supported and supplied muscle for the revolution.

This includes Slanneshi aligned cultists.  They probably did not even know that they were Slanneshi cultists four years ago, they were just after shrugging off the harsh yoke of Imperial rule.

And after four years of seeing the inexorable creep of the Imperial Guard across the planet, seeing the bombings and having knights and Titans arrayed against them, they are ready for the last fight, their capital city, the place of Imperial pilgrimage, will be defended against the oppressor.

There is a place for Physical Comdey on Devos IV

 

But the appearance of a Masque would be more than an excuse for a bit of slapstick.

It's an indication that the Eldar as a whole think there is something going on here which requires intervention.  So they are sort of tumbling, leaping and froliking litmus of likely Elder intervention.

OC G Coy 262 Line Infantry Regt

262 Line Infantry Regt are a part of 902 Div XVII Korps 72AG.  G Coy have been reserved by Col Cmdt Welbahn as a part of his ready reserve.  

Major Karim leads G Coy and has brought with him a troop of heavy mortars and a troop of Quad Launchers.  

He's conscious of the fact that the rest of 262 Regt is dying for Emperor and G Coy is standing by in the rear.  However, he has confidence in Col Cmdt Welbahn and fully expects to be thrown into the Schwerpunkt at the critical time.  Being in reserve with a full detachment from the fellow Krieg 19 Armd Regt gives a feeling of fellowship G Coy wouldn't actually have with the rest of the Divisional reserve.  

He's an ordinary son of Krieg from an ordinary background, brought up in the Corinthian hab blocks adjacent to the Stahl arms works.  He fell in love with a daughter of the Tyroc dynasty, but was not of high enough social status to warrant her attention.  This has driven him ever since, with stoicism and determination, already strong Krieg traits, finding new heights in his personal conduct and leadership style. 
 

I wanted to be an architect

But the careers offices on Krieg offered me ice skater or tank crewman.  At least I've got a seat.
 

Where are we going ?

 Nowhere if you don't get that track fixed !
