Cadian Regiment 626

[masterofweirdness]

OOC: Okay, here we go, Elganor, Farseer, both you guys post your intro posts here. Introduce your character, remember, we’re all in the same squad, 8th Squad, 12th Platoon, Cadian Regiment 626th.

Bomb shells screamed through the air as Lenon was rudely awakened from his cat-nap. He jumped up and grabbed his lasgun and then cursed as he jerked a sore muscle.

Around him were his squad mates, the finest Cadia had to offer, although he had little time to get to know them on the ship from Cadia, being to busy chasing the female recruits (not that it had gotten him anywhere). But now he looked at them hoping they would live up to his and their officers expectations.

The orks were finally coming into view from despite the dust all around him. His sergeant gave the order to aim, and he raised his lagun waiting for the final order.

“FIRE!” the sergeant yelled. He was answered by the silent, zip of labels firing.

The squad fired again and again, three, no, four times before the orks were almost on top of them. At this point the squad’s flamer fired his gun burning the nearby orks as the rest of the men pulled out knives and bayonets.

The orks rushed amongst the Imperial Line. Some came down the trench line while others tried to hit the Lenon’s squad from the front.

He had attached his bayonet to his lasgun and was fighting like mad. He was scared, in fact probably had wet his pants, but he wasn’t going to run from these Emperor damned xenos monsters!

OOC: Okay, post up an intro to the thread, the orks are amongst the line and fighting like insane orks. After you all post up intros I’ll post again and we’ll see how this goes.

[NearSightedFarseer]

gren's squad shot as many orks as possible, which was to say subpar, but seeing as most of the squad had just been handed them for the first time, not too bad. when the orks charge hit the conscripts, there was screaming and talk of running away, until the commisar shot the closest conscript and said, "i don't think so". gren saw the guy next to him had a better knife, so quickly replaced his with the marginally better one.

the squad quickly attached their knives to their battered lasguns and with a shout attempted an assault on the orks, most of the strikes were knocked away by the orks choppas, but some actually fell some orks, gren included.

the commisar shouted, "keep at it you fething dogs!", as he ran into the fray..
gren knew that the day was only gonna get worse.

[masterofweirdness]

OOC: To be picky, I'd like it if you'd use proper grammar, including caps were they should be. And since I have a feeling Elf ain't gonna post for a while (haven't seen him on chat all day) I'll go ahead with another one. Oh, one more thing, Farseer, I mentioned where in the same squad, if you don't want that now, it will be fixed later. Right now I'll introduce my Ork.

Horn was angry. His nob had just made him lug up all his armor instead of getting it himself, since he was smarter than Horn, he had one the arguement with the words "I'm bigger 'an you! If yous don't do 'as I says, den I'll stomp your gob real good!"

So Horn was now lagging behind missing a good fight against da 'umies.

He finally got to the fight and started blasting with his gun away and laughing while doing so.

But those dumb 'umies had to fight back. They shot at him with their bright lights and burned him. He cursed in orkish and fired at the 'umies aiming at him, when they stopped moving his charged foward with a loud "WAAAAGGGH!" shooting his gun at anything that moved.

He finally came close enough to use his knife. It was from a space marine he had killed some time ago, and was proud of it, he still kept the helmet for when he began a nob.

He started killing guardsmen left at right, it was fun, he thought, killing guardsmen, and it relaxed him too, like a nice massage would a human.

[NearSightedFarseer]

hehe..d'oh sorry about that, working a bit too hard lately..

[leanelganor]

Konan couldn’t see where was he. The land was so dusty that he was thinking that he and his mates where in the desert. As dust got a bit clear the fight began. Konan was scared. As Orcs made a counter-attack Konan became more scared. And his heart beat started to beat faster. But for some reason Konan had faith on his shotgun. As when one Orc tried to attack him two shots on the head killed that Orc. It was like the Orc had a hole on his forehead. So, even though he was scared he had faith on his shotgun so, he got some chances to kill some Orc. Suddenly, Konan heard a scream "Run away everybody, retreat” and then saw that the Commissar killed the closest recruit that was in his range of his gun. Konan had a deep thinking “Does that mean Commissar is betraying us?” But then The Commissar said “I don’t think so!! We are not going to retreat and we are not lose is fight!!” “You understand me!!!” The Commissar shouted. When he said that Konan had found a reason to live and fight. He thought “Dying in sin and being scared all of your life isn’t going to help me instead, Dying in courage and have strong sprit is a lot better!” As Konan was thinking suddenly, an Orc hit his hand and Konan fell into the ground. His arm was wounded. The Orc said “You puiny little uhams are nothing buut trouble!!” Then he said “And nuw, I am going to kull yea and cut yea from limb to limb!! Hahahaha!!” As Konan got hit by an Orc his shotgun fell somewhere in the ground and he couldn’t find it. And as the Orc was going to kill him without thinking he took out his las pistol and shot the Orc on his head. Six shots!! That’s all it took. So, as he stood up on the ground, he thought that he had a reason to live and that was to take revenge for killing his family.

[masterofweirdness]

OOC:Okay, great intros everyone, liked your a lot Jacob, I thought it was really well done. But, just one thing, everyone knows what a commissar does.

The orks charge had lost its momentum. The reserve platoons had been brought up and copious use of flamers had pushed the orks out of the Imperial trench line.

Through all the chaos and dust somehow Lenon had survived. His lasgun was battered and he had lost both his bayonet and knife, he was currently using his back-up laspistol and a salvaged combat knife.

He had killed his share of orks, at least a dozen, probably more. He was now helping a squad of men hunt down a final group of orks.

“Fire in the hole!” yelled one of the men as he threw two grenades into the bunker.

The grenades exploded and the squad moved into the building. The three orks that had survived the grenades were killed in a hail of las-fire.

The squad’s vox man reported their victory as the squad moved to regroup with their platoon.

OOC: Okay, the battles almost over, one more battle post and then I’ll have a longer post dealing with the situation on this planet.

[NearSightedFarseer]

(hopefully this post will set things straight n right)

gren was one of the few conscripts to remain standing after the battle, the others managed to run away or lay disembered on the ground. the commisar, after conversing with the squad leader, approached him and said, "you did well today, so your joining the guard proper", as he was inspecting his las pistol closely.

gren approached the squad leader and introduced himself, "guardsmen gren reporting, sir", the officer nodded and pointed to the platoon. gren dropped his busted lasgun, broken nearly in half when he ran out of ammo and had to bludgeon the brutal orks with it. he saw a slighty battered lasgun with attached bayonet on the ground, picked it up, and wiped off the blood. holding his head high, he went over to platoon and introduced himself to his comrades.

gren felt a new sensation, pride, about his actions, felling at least 10 orks and he knew that many more would be killed before the day was through

[leanelganor]

The war was almost over, and yet Konan survived. Konan future was still dark. He didn’t know what to do. But again, fighting the Orks gave him the faith and courage which was useful to him. “The Orks making a counter- attack was good but wasn’t good enough for Konan’s shotgun” Konan thought. The last squad of Orks was left and he thought that throwing some grenades would do the work. Likely, he didn’t have any so he thought let others do the work. After the grenades exploded we went to regroup and the was ours

[masterofweirdness]

OOC: Don't have time for a proper post right now. So I'll just say this, Infiniti is joining the thread. Here's his char. sheet:

Name: thorgad

Race: Human

Age: 19

Faction/profession: Cadian Imperial Guard conscript

Weapons: Lasgun and a combat knife

Appearance: thorgad is 5ft tall, with black hair

Story: he was conscripted at 18, he was the second best shot in the platoon, he was strong and good at fighting.

Post my RP post tommorrow.

[infiniti]

thorgad finaly came to after being launched out of the trench by an orc bomb. He got up and tried to fire at the charging orcs who had not reached the trench yet as thorgad was 3 meters behind the trench. But thorgad had no ammo so he charged in to the trench fitting his bayonet on the way. thorgad charged at a big orc thorgad parred his first blow and stabed the orc thought its chest but that was not enought so he sliced its throat and it collapsed dead. thorgad continued to kill orcs with his bayonet till it snaped of his lasgun when an orc caught him of guard. thorgad drew his combat knife and stabed the orc through the thoat. he drew his stub gun and fought on till the orcs counter attack was defeated. thorgad collapsed in the trench and tried to calm down he was scared and he was tired. he decided to find his squad he heared grenade blasts in the distence and started to head towards the noise

[masterofweirdness]

OOC: Once again, I'm going to ask that you guys use proper grammar. That means caps after a period. Its not elitist, its just that basic grammar is a good standard for Rps, it also makes them easier to read. And, btw, orcs are orks in 40k. Back to the story.

The battle for the day was over. The orks had retreated and left the heavily mauled imperial line a mess of corpes and scattered las-guns.

Lenon's squad was long gone, he had attached himself to another platoon's command squad, the junior officer igorning him. However, this squad was not to be his home for long. The company commander asked for a volunteer for a special mission. Lenon was the only volunteer.

It turned out that only three other men had volunteered, leaving them one man short. The company commander decided that they would be lead by a Karskin.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning Lenon and his new squad assembled in front of their karskin sargeant, a tall, gruff looking man armed with a hell-pistol and powersword.

"Okay men! Listen up, we've been ordered to destory an ork artillery site on that ridge," he gestured to a distant ridge. "We've been given a chimera as a transport, along with a driver. Other than that, we've only recived five meltabombs apiece, nothing else. No lets get moving."

OOC: New mission, we do the following briefing, using the meltas to take out looted Baskilisks, and we'll have a battle... with Horn.

[infiniti]

thorgad walked around trying to find his squad. Thorgad joined a junior officer after a wile who volunteered him to join a special mission. The next morning he met the squad at the karskin sergeant to find out what there job was. Thorgad recived 5 melta bombs also the squad would recive a chimera transport.

[NearSightedFarseer]

(A thousand pardons commisar)

Gren picked up his meltabombs and carefully stuffed them them into his pack. As he boarded the chimera with the rest of his squad, Gren couldn't help but feel that he was going to be up to his neck in trouble before the day was through.

Saying a quick prayer to the god-emperor, Gren double checked his gear and braced himself for battle

[leanelganor]

When the battle was over against the Orks, Konan thought that it was time to take a day -off but, he was wrong. For some reason he volunteered for a special mission without taking a day-off. So instead of taking a day-off he had gone to bed early.

The next morning after Konan waking up he had to join his new squad for a brief of that special mission. The brief was given by Karskin sergeant. The mission was to destroy an Ork artillery on a ridge which was so far away that it could not be seen. The sergeant gave five meltabombs apiece to all of the volunteer for that special mission. Konan was really surprised that they had to ride a Chimera. Konan had never ridden a Chimera before. So as Konan got into a Chimera, he knew that the battle had just begun and somewhere on that ridge something horrible was waiting for them.

[masterofweirdness]

OOC:Good, now we are off to battle.

Though Chimeras were supposed to have enough space for a squad of ten men in carapace armor, Lenon didn't see how they were able to fit, he barely had enough room for his lasgun, let alone his body!

The drive was rough, and silent, he had gotten to know the names of his squad mates, Gren, Konan and Thorgad, as well as his sergeant, who called himself Twist.

Finally they approached the rigde. The squad got out of the chimera, and approached the line of guns. About, perhaps, ten orks, all slavers, were around the guns, they all commanded countless grotz and their job of firing the weapons on the imperial line.

Twist ordered the chimera to move forward to support the squad with its heavy bolter and multi-laser, then he gave the order for his men to charge.

OOC: Okay, in this battle, I need you guys to keep track of the orks, kill as many grots as you want though. And remember, orks survive being shot at by lasguns pretty easily, so don't be too uber. If you want to use the chimera's guns in your post, do so in moderation.

[infiniti]

After the ride in the chimera. Thorgad moved to the right of the guns. the sergeant (Twist) ordered the chimera to support them. Thorgad threw his first melta bomb at the gun on the far right of the battery hoping it would cause some confusion and give him a chance to kill as many grots as he can at a decent range. Then he started to fire at the mass of grots who started to react he only realised that he had brought the gun barrel down when it nearly crushed him. He dodged the gun barrel but he triped. 1 of the orc slavers was heading towards him so he fired at it he tried to get up but a bunch of grots charged him so he fought them of only to find the orc was nearly on him he fired a single shot at its head, the orc charged now screaming "waaaaargh" at the top of its voice. Thorgad knew he was in for it now. The orc swung his wip at thorgad. He caught hold of the wip and fired again at the orc the orc pulled the wip thus he pulled thorgad towards him. Thorgad landed on his feet and stabbed up in to the chest of the orc it finaly collapsed on top of him he pushed the orc of only to find more grots firing at him he could hear the heavy bolter in the backround he thought he heared a bang and guessed that another gun was destroyed but he was still killing grots.

ooc: how many guns are there (-1 of course)

[NearSightedFarseer]

Gren opened up on a large clutch of grots, cutting a brutal swathe. An ork slaver charged him with a bone jarring "WAAAGH!", Gren shot franticly at the beast, hitting it in the chest and legs. The slaver collapsed, still alive but its legs were mangled horribly, Gren quickly bayoneted its head with a sickly crunch.
Gren hurried over to a momentarily unguarded basilisk, attached a meltabomb, and retreated behind a demolished basilisk. The resulting explosion sent a small group of repair grots flying, followed up by the ammo reserves detonating.
Gren looked around the battle field, seeing his comrades making progress, looked for the next basilisk. Three grots came at him with wrenches, Gren swung at them, cracking their puny skulls. Than Gren cautiously advanced on the next artillary piece with a prayer on his lips

[infiniti]

He fitted his second melta bomb to the next gun barrel.He climbed on to the gun and started to try and snipe the orcs. he decided to try using the gun as a trap. Thorgad fired at its head missing and killing a grot. As the orc ran towards the gun thorgad jamp of the gun just after setting the melta bomb to 3 seconds. he caught the orc in the blast but he also was caught by the blast which launched him past the chimera. Which was firring at the mass of grots so he climbed on top to try snipping again.

ooc: sorry for having dislexia, also i guessed that we would kill 2 orcs each as there is 5 in the squad and 10 orcs. i was going to say that thorgad continue snipping till the rest of the orcs were dead then set charges if you and the others ran out.

[masterofweirdness]

OOC: Infiniti, your last post was barely readable... I didn't really understand what the heck your character did. Please, spell check, re-read and use proper grammar before posting... if you need to, use a Word Processor. Its not fun Rping when you can't understand what the other guys are doing. And what... 8 slavers left?

Lenon, the karskin sargeant at his side, charged into the horde of grots. Behind them the Chimera driver fired his multi-laser and heavy bolter as best he could. Aiming for both the grots and the basilisks.

The artillery pieces exploded as the bolt shells ripped them apart, while lasfire burned holes in the horde of on coming grots and their slavers.

Lenon himself managed to destroy one of the artillery pieces, he had place a pair of bombs on the tank and then jumped away before it exploded.

OOC: Okay, we'll wait for Leanelganor to post before moving on to the next part of this battle... anyone want anything other than a standard lasgun... we could use some special weapons.

[leanelganor]

As Konan got into the Chimera he had got a chance to meet his new squad members. Everyone was feeling very excited about this mission but Lenon was kind of feeling bad, probably because he wasn’t comfortable enough in sitting.

So, as Konan and the others reached the destination, we got out of the Chimera and everybody got into their position. And as for Konan, his position was to shoot some heads. This time it was the totally the opposite, on the last battle it was the Orks who charged at them, but this time, it was Konan and the others who charged at the Orks. Konan ran a bit and took a large squad of Orks, cause he knew that they can’t stay alive when the they have been shot by a shotgun. Konan became really happy and he was really having fun. When he was fighting with the Orks he remembered his early life, when he was just a kid. He remembered when he was just a kid, he used to play Counter Strike. He always used to play Counter Strike with shotguns. He used to love shotguns. So, after joining the IG he chose a shotgun. So after defeating all the Orks on that group his path was clear to destroy an artillery. So, when he was going to throw one of his meltabombs from nowhere heavy bolter was shooting the artillery. So, when Konan saw that he ran as far as he could but, it wasn’t enough! When the artillery exploded Konan blew of somewhere and his shotgun got lost also. When he couldn’t find his shotgun he got scared and thought “I should really stop day-dreaming from now on!!”

[masterofweirdness]

The battle was almost over, the baslisks were all but gone and the mass of grots of the hill, without their slaver masters, were running amok and panicking.

The squad quickly jumped into the chimera atthe sound of an oncoming mob. Once inside, they heard the loud, annoying, and inaccurate fire of ork shootas.

As they left the hill, the seargant said, "Good work men. I've never seen a group of conscripts perform as well as you have, and, in fact, I'm going to make sure the captain hears that."

The men offered their thanks, and then silenced as they waited for the chimera to halt, back at the Imperial Line.

OOC: Okay, batte over, great work everyone! Sorry, I took so long, but I've been lazy. I'm not sure if Leanelganor will be able to post anymore as he is studying like a madman for his upcoming exams, and won't be able to come to visit me for the next 2 weeks (e.g. he's been locked in his house by his parents).

Okay, I'm thinking that I'm going close this thread soon, it was a good intro thread to see how RPing on this board would be, and now I think we can go onto some more open ended Rping... mainly, a Rogue Trader crew.

[infiniti]

ooc: cool and good luck to Leanelganor exams can be hard.

thorgad ran inside the chimera as the basalisks where all destroyed and there was a mob of shootas on its way as the chimera drove of we could hear the inacurate fire bouncing of the chimeras armour.
