The day of the wolf.

The xeno-beast was lashing at the sturdy figures of the Space Wolves surrounding it. Even with its last breath of life, the genetical monstrosity tried to kill any living being that stood in defiance of its malignant will. Billions of creatures. One leading will.
Lord Skold Eclipseclaw grinned, reflecting upon the irony that lies in the similarities between the two races. Apparent similarities, he corrected himself. Dreaming in the icy terrors of Thunderwolves Mountains is something this single-minded spawn will never do. Outdrinking fellow Wolf Guards while toasting to the deeds of the ancient warriors who halted the tide of Solimon-IV World-Eaters invasion is something this single-minded spawn will never do.
Howling their loyalty for their benevolent light from which their souls hail from is something this single-minded spawn will never do.
Because there is no light in this creature. There is no light in its race. Only an emotionless lust for wanton destruction of anything that pulses with life.
The fire of the funeral pyre was shining in the deep-blue eyes of the Lord, as he oversaw the ceremony. "Today we start a New Saga in the indomitable spirit of our Chapter. Today we mourn the first heroes to fall in the cleansing of this planet. Because our fangs are still white with pride and anger. Becuase the Hive Mind still defies the very idea of life, as set by Russ and his glorious father. Because we are the Space Wolves, undefeated guardians of Fenris."
The howl of approval deafened the roar of thunderhawks gunships flying above the military camp prepared by the Iron of Priests of Lord Skold Eclipseclaw Great Company. The four packs of Fenrisian wolves that became a permanent part of the Company growled with anticipation.
The Lord slowly raised his left hand, looking at the packs gathered around the campfire.
"Besides," he continued, "Three weeks without a war make you cubs too fat for my liking."
This time the laughing roar thundered across the region, making local animals to flee in terror.
The Wolves were there. No Claw of the Emperor will leave this planet alive until the very memory of the Tyranid invasion is utterly obliterated.

TURN 1
initiative: Titan Legion


The Tyranid start a move all their force rounding out the city block.
The reaver and the paladin march to take position near the east gate,
when the warlord and the leman russ cataprach coohort take position
in the center, holding their own objective. The warhound march and
take one of the tyranid objective. The two thunderbolt open fire
against one of the hierophants.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

TURN 2
initiative: Titan Legion


The tyranid come back to the ruins at the center, confusing the
force of the imperium. The Paladin move on the hill and open fire
against one hierophant. The warhound and the leman russ go in overwatch.
During the grouping of all the tyranid force
near the ruins at the street, the reaver titan move near and fire with
his meltacannon against the dominatrix, and the warlord do the same,
hitting it some times. All the force are ready, who will win the initiative
will cause a mass engage to the opponent. No retreat... sayed the Legate on
the warlord! ...but, when all was ready in his battleplan...

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

TURN 3
initiative: Tyranid

The tyranid win the initiative, and the dominatrix order a mass engage of
his retiunue and the two hierophant, against the reaver, the warlord and
the paladins. The warlord, armed with a chainfist and a powerfist cause a lot
of damage against the two biotitan, but at the end of the apocalyptic clash,
the imperial titan crash to the ground, and the paladin is overruned during
their retreat. The leman russ open first fire against one hierophant, but wasn't
sufficient for kill it. The warhound was broken his overwatch during the last mass engage. A Tyranid Planet fall happen in the objective 1 of the imperial forces, and launch an engage against the leman russ. Only 1 leman russ will survive to this ambush. The Praetorian fighter, with they fanatic spirit, go and engage the tyranid flyer forces, forcing them to retreat, and taking the lost objective... but the battlw is finished, the titan is on the gound, in a smoking flames of destruction.

Objective:
Tyranid: 2 (break the spirit, defend the flag)
Titan Legion: 1 (defend the flag)


Image

Image

Image

...a message income to the bunker of the commander on the underground.
A penalist legion are incoming. Their mission: Try to stop here the tyranid swarms, much time as possible!


"...they will have a chance to regain his freedom and his honour: Today."

Towards the second outer ring Hive Cassius, in XIX, the Tyranid have conquered and brought down
The defense industry with an asymmetric war, forcing a rambling escape the Imperial forces,
receding currently being reorganized. To stop the xeno advance, and groped for the recapture
sector, the governor of the hive ordered his soldier of fortune, the Squat of Torvug II Lord of IronLion, proceeding with their
divisions in the area, groped to stop the advance and create confusion between the alien lines.

Meanwhile, the penalty legion is on the way into the sector, whose fall began with the defeat of the titan
Legion few hours earlier. The entire hive is fighting both the outer ring, and in some cases, as in this case,
In the first inner ring. The governor wants to stop the xeno invasion before they impacts in the hive heart, but the war
Angry outburst with fire rush and asimmetric tactics! The space wolf, after the glorious victory at the outer gate of the east sector, are Engaged in dozens of tactical and chirurgical little clash scattered in various theaters of battle.


Squat 3,500 points V/S Tyranid 3,500 points.

The first picture is sended to the mainframe by the Thunderbolt squadron.

Image

The two gates of the sector XIX stand up, the main and the secondary.

Image

Image

In the bastion appear a great brick, created in the last mass clash where
the Holy guardian of the sector is crashed to the ground.

Image

The space bay wasn't destroyed.

Image

and over, the hive appear in good condition. The defence wall have done is job.

Image

Image

Image

The Holy guardian of the gate, is crashed to the ground, collapsing to a
great buildings fall down in his rear.

Image

The ruins of the Imperator Titan appear on the screen of the Hive Governor Lucius II.

Image

Looking on his screen the governon think, constantly in communication with all
his commander and the ambassy of the Space wolf, on the top of the great tower of
the Hive. Down: fires, clash, battle, explosion and the howls of thousands of man
that fight for survive. ...and looking his screens, he think to the Squat Mercenary
that have sold the years ago for his not properly good business.
<<If they fail, the penal legion will do this ugly job. The sector XIX must stand.
Mercenary and penalist cost nothing. Dear commissars and commanders.
Open all the comunication service, and send the orders to all the division.
1 of the 2 Imperator Titan of the hive is collapsed.
Is a bad page in the glorious book of the imperium age>>.

EpicBattleBaggz! Dear Warlord, there is a veteran player here! :D
You will see the house from the variuos version of space marine, and the scenic of the collapsed Imperator Titan was created today, for the scenario. It was an incomplete models, bad painted years ago ...and I have think: You have a better destination, with the GW ruins, and the pegasus stone, plus vynavil and das... cut and paste, cut and paste, cut and paste... et voilà, the collapsed imperatori titan! Isn't difficult my friend to recreate:
- take one imperator.
- take some EPIC 40K ruins
- take one support wood or similar strong materials where mount all.
- vynavil and das and the pegasus stone. (the little)
7 hours for fix them all, and go with drybrush (in lesser than one hour was finished).


And the fortress wall, I've find the tutorial here, in this forum!
At this link, if you want.
http://www.taccmd.tacticalwargames.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=18440&p=380641#p380641

For the rest, a lot of forgeworld models, gw, dark realm and cetera... plus a lot of passion to customize it.
I thinked, that for represent realistically an imperial city, I have created the advertising for this dark age... and I have think that the only possible advertising was a old-fashioned dictator propaganda, where appear the figure of the emperor, as a far god: The god Emperor will protect you... I've added some different adv pictures, like the "I want You" for the imperial guard, and les jeux son fait!
:) :)

here, the post about the dark realm miniature, for complete the space bay.
http://www.taccmd.tacticalwargames.net/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=19571

and tomorrow, the Squat Mercenary will clash against the tyranid on the sector 19...
Two my friends play and I will take the battlereport, but the result I think will be...
:)

Dear Warlords, that from the outer space of the Galaxy of the Imperium,
see with your Xeno or Loyalist eyes, the develop, the days and the events of
the Battle for Hive Cassius! My personal greetings, and I'm very happy to procede
with this dark, firings battlereport. The chronicle of the day, when the Hive Cassius
was assaulted by the Tyrant fleet.

So, in the dozen theatre of war, the focus of the Governor of the Hive, Lucius II was focused
to a lot of screen:
- First was the Battle for the External gate, where a first little force was sent to patrol the sector.
- After his little victory, the steel legion sent a large army for front the Xeno invasion, but was defeated
- only the arrive of the chapter of the Space Wolf have saved the situation before fall down in a violet hole of tyrant.
- than, the great mass of tyranid was fronted by one of the division of the Adeptus M., but was defeated, and
- one hours later, there was the battle of the squat mercenary IronLion, for stop the invasion at the second circle.

but the squat was defeated, anyway, they have causes a lot of damage to the tyrant horde, permitting at the Penalist
legion to procede to the sector, for kick them out and patrol the internal citywall.
This day, will be decided soon (next sunday) :)

And, this images appears to the screen of the Governors, in few hours.
And this battles, became nothing, compared to the dozens of screens in the main upper tower of the hive,
as a drop in the bucket, in a sea of blood and firing cannons.

But.. Why, this fleet was appeared to the solar system of Hive Cassius, as an ambush from the black universe?
The inquisition are formulate an idea... but is too early to pronunce the sentence. betray! Will betray!

Next day, the penalist legion will take the freedom, and the glory. Or a bloody, ignominous and unchanted death.
