The head of the massive knight turned towards the men approaching with ammunition. "Battle cannon rounds, work," the powerful voice commented. As he spoke he made a short gesture with the rapid-fire battle cannon before lowering slowly to a almost kneeling position. Even in this position his frame towered over all nearby, but he was able to lower his battle cannon to nearly touch the ground. "Loader on inner side." The voice rumbled out as the head turned back to Siros and Cyradon. "Tau hunter squads mostly pathfinders, weak. Ones with tanks, I avoid. Flyers keep their distance. Tau too small to keep big patrols. This one, biggest I've seen. Tau have two war fronts, can't afford a third." The head tilted a little, "Location of heretic armor?"

Tarkhan nodded in satisfaction as he repaired the few faults, he had been right. Carefully, almost lovingly, replacing the engine panels and armor he walked over to the captain. "I was right!" his voice droned in triumph. "Most of the damage is external, armor plates and sponson weapons. This repair is far simpler than I feared it would be, though it will still take time." He paused in his victory as he was interuptted by a vox transmission. Annoyed, he checked the signal to see who it was, suprised to see it was one of the vox channels used by the camp he had left, but it was too faint to make out what the message was.

Tarkhan considered, he had been toying with building a vox amplifer/reciver for his own personal use, and the scrap certainly had the materials for him to do so. But who would signal him from the camp? The Astartes and Scions distrusted him, the Witch Dion didn't speak and didn't like him, the penal legionaire wasnt likely. Possibly the Eldar or the Partisans.

Quickly picking out a suitable frame, Tarkhan pulled a vox caster from a pile of the components of one of the chimeras. Fitting the voxcaster components in the frame his micromechandrites patched the circutry as he quickly selected a viable powercell to hook up. Fitting a quickly made antenna to the device, he linked it to his own vox caster, amplifing the power of it's power and reception. Switching to the channel that tried to hail him he sent back, "Registered signal but unable to make out message, please repeat message."
