Falx - Scratch

Troopers attempt to cut down more Imperials while the enslaved orks join them to act as meat shield.

Gurak the Ashen - Silverdream

Image

Gurak: "Now my brethren, join me against your oppressors or perish. Any ork that fights the Falx will live free for another day."

Gurak's feat critically succeeds, resulting in his fellow greenskins to watch his display of badassery awestruck, without even considering redshirting for the Falx. Not pictured: Bone archer missing its attack.

Isabella fries the Falx officer while his men take care of the last trooper.

Attacker Victory!

Final overview and kills:

Silverdream - 11
Scratch - 11

Epilogue:

After the battle, Isabella and Gurak both round up what they came for.

Image

Image

Gurak: 'Falx or not, you have fought well today Isabella. You've earned my respect.'
Isabella: 'Not that I've asked for it to begin with. But I must admit you put up a great fight as well. Perhaps I underestimated your kin's fervor and spirit. We should leave soon though: by the end of the day they will notice that the daily shipment is missing and send out a scouting party.'

As the two converse, a deathgate opens.

Image

Shrouded figure: 'I see our temporary alliance has proven beneficial, most splendid. Leave Gurak, I'll join you soon.'

Image

Isabella: 'I don't know what you're playing at but I'm pretty sure this ambush of yours had more to it than just being a "balancing act".'
Shrouded figure: 'You're wits are just as sharp as your tongue, wayward Falx lady. Indeed, I needed this mine to be liberated from the invaders, as it contains something far more valuable than this cursed black ore. Allow me to demonstrate.'

Image

The mysterious warrior raises his sword skyward and begins chanting. Unnatural green streaks of energy start to permeate through the cracks as the entire mine begins to tremble.

Image

*ROAR*

Image

The entire cave crumbles into rubble as the skeletal dragon emerges from its resting place.

Image

Shrouded figure: 'This is what I was after the whole time, lady Isabella. Quite magnificent, isn't it? The wyrm also made sure that the pit is unsalvageable for further mining. Two birds with one stone.'

Image

Isabella: 'Very clever, rebuilding your ranks in the midst of chaos. I assume we're still free to leave given our truce?'
Shrouded figure: 'Of course, lady Isabella. You are free to leave with your spoils. We shall meet again soon.'

Image

Isabella: 'Curses! I thought I managed to trick those mindless husks but in reality I was the one who got duped! Hopefully the old man will appreciate this huge amount of ebonite regardless.'

That rounds up 'Thick as Thieves'. As always, thank you so much for playing, and I hope you had a great time. Be sure to check back soon, as the Falx Invasion is far from over yet!

Oh yes, the Falx can always send more men. ... Not that they're winning many battles, but hey at least they're not giving up!

I gotta go with Zupponn now and say that that shrouded figure must be Warhead.

Great battle as always Zahru!
