(Apologies for the slow reply. Vardes rolls a 16 for telekinetic crush, failing to cast it. No miscasts)

The Apothecary offers a nod, “I will do what I can, and I will prepare a report,” the building shakes and dust falls upon him shoulders, “Once I am finished here.”

Sun’Haku’s men move back and slink into whatever cover they can find, exchanging sporadic pot-shots with the xenos as they scamper about for safety. Some draw and ready explosives, knowing the danger the advancing tanks pose.

A message runs through the vox units of the advancing Space Marines, warning them of the location of friendlies, but Anat has already informed them. They look to the Raven Guard trooper, “Sir, at this range the tanks will be immune to our fire. We must get closer, but we can engage with the xenos infantry. Aim for joints, their armour does not properly cover them.”

Several xenos collapse as the Space Marines open fire with their first wave, throwing the aliens into panic as they realise they’ve been outflanked. Their forces begin to divide up and are left in disarray.

Despite the rush of psychic energy, Vardes finds himself unable to conjure the power, the tank weapon systems remaining operational.

Daon is able to bypass the vanguard, the xenos too caught up with the new arrivals and Sun’Haku to catch sight of him. Daon is able to move up along the side of the already damage scarab tank. The alien’s previously defending it have moved away at this point, while the tanks continue their barrage.

As per Haku’s orders, the Space Marines fall back, unleashing a wave of suppressing fire upon the ragged Xenos forces.
