More than his weapons, it was Dax' skills and experience that let him hold out amidst the growling, leering mob of Xenos. The Bolt Pistol quickly ran dry and it was like he could feel his blade dull with each stroke, but nevertheless, the Space Marine stood while the Orks fell.

Ciaran's daring move was not rewarded, as the Nob, thrown out of balance by the additional weight, staggered wildly. Letting out a crude growl of annoyance, and without acknowledging the missing half of his face, the Ork raised his gun-strapped arm and fired wildly, unable to miss at such a short distance. Slugs hit Ciaran like a storm of fists, several punching through the thinner parts of his armor.

Marius' shots hit home and with an ear-deafening bellow, a flower of burning promethium rose to the sky. The xeno cover fire ceased almost immediately in one swoop, as those close to the tank were incinerated immediately and several others thrown off their feet by the draft.

A few shots were sent in Volprecht's back from the pursuing Greenskins, but neither they nor those crushed under the weight of his onslaught could prevent him from arriving timely at Kellen's side. In the righteous fury his Chapter was famous for, Volprecht slaughtered the Orks before him with mighty swings of his Power Sword and in mere moments, he hacked a sizable breach into their ranks.

Reus taps into the latent waves of the Warp...only for them suddenly flee his grasp. Fickle as they were, they forsake him in this crucial moment.

The Nob was, albeit still alive, sufficiently distracted by Ciaran's maneuver as that Tyberion could exploit it.
