It is my sad duty to report another savage attack on the harbour of Skaar-bek by the forces of chaos . Following a battle a month ago during which a joint force of tyranids and lost and damned seized an objective after a bloody battle ,their arrogance has known no limits .
On that fateful day, an armoured company of IG ,just back from some desert fighting was unloading from imperial ships (on their way to R and R ) under the watchful eyes of my sisters of battle when the attack started .
Emerging from a street of derelict buildings scheduled for destruction , a strong force of thousands sons (them again!) ,chaos marines supported by dark eldars and some unknown mutants trailing body parts immediatly tried to rush the first line of defence . Even thought outnumbered and deprived of the initiative, the guards and sisters quickly deployed and rained fire on the enemy, the initial burst of fire lacked accuracy and a factory was overwhelmed . Soon after ,despite severe losses the mutants seized a dry dock and slaughtered its defenders to a man.In the course of this fight some warp abomination were summoned and caused great damage to the emperor's troops .
The defenders' gun barrels were glowing red from mad shooting and bodies of the enemy piling up but it looked like the harbour was about to be taken when help arrived in the form of a space wolf spaceship. A counterattack was quickly planned (and betrayed by an eldar spy ),orbital strikes began to fall and with them a SW strike forces that rushed the rear of the attackers, wreaking havoc and destroying their fire support . Combined with superior firepower the advance of the enemy was slowed,then stopped and he began to loose steam (and warm bodies ) . Shortly after, to the relief of the surviving defenders , the attack stopped ,the enemy vanished back where it came from and repairs could be started .
To my regret ,the body of the thousand son commander was not found and it must be feared that he survived, the eldar spy escaped as well but his apprehension by the forces of the holy inquisition is imminent (any idea as to how he should be punished is welcome).
