The Space Marines fall into position per Daon's instructions, the Apothecary working to tend to the wounded to his best ability. From the ruins of the building, which has been reduced to a mass of twisted grey pillars and shattered coral floors, the party is able to watch as alien artillery and AA-fire scorch the sky. The number of Imperial ships in the air has dwindled, though it is possible they have begun to deploy elsewhere. The sound of artillery however, intensifies - thought is not directed at your position. The aliens appear to be pressing their attack elsewhere, working upon surrounding and crushing pockets of Imperial troops whenever they can.

But after almost an hour of waiting, something does happen. Alien hover-tanks, which possess the structure of some massive beetle and a similar, glossy-metallic texture approach. They are backed by alien and human militia men, and slowly begin to surround you position.
