Helsreach (2011)
“Dark powdery dust blasts into the air, thicker than smoke and expanding like a stormcloud, blinding in its density. I watch this from hundreds of metres away, standing with my brothers and the soldiers of the Desert Vultures. At the end of the street, the wall is no more. Our defences are broken, and behind the dust cloud, the breach gapes wide. The true siege has begun. On every rooftop, in every alley, on every street and from every window – for kilometres around – Imperial guns stand ready, ...clutched in loyal hands, ready to slay the invaders. Road by road, home by home. This was always how the Battle of Helsreach would be fought, and it is what every soul in the city stands ready for. The great figures of the Titans begin to withdraw. Their first duty is done; they stood at the walls and pounded the enemy forces with their immense artillery. Invigilata’s engines fall back now, not in defeat, nor even willingly – but because they must reload for the true battle. The Crone updated the commanders’ shared tactical grid with the locations of the Mechanicus landers within the city limits that serve as Invigilata’s rearming stations.MoreLess
