Katcher jede na Magor! Fluff a roster

Pomalu, ale jistě se blíží klasická plzeňská taškařice Magor Rift neboli kompletně narativní víkend. Je to akce ojedinělá a těžce specifická…Tak jsem se dokopal k tomu vytáhnout takovou malou specialitku, která mě donutí dobarvit další část poličky a to 113th Skitaari Siege Regiment “The Doorknockers”. A jelikož je to narativka, tak je dobrým zvykem napsat něco fluffu…

Dear commander,
our Logis department has analyzed the situation in the Magor Rift sector. Considering the number of traitors, greenskins and other xenos villainy we suggest following steps and objectives : 

The xenotech device, which was activated, must be reclaimed and analyzed.
The obstacles are redundant.
The loyal population in the sector is close to zero, therefore insignificant.
The collateral damage is also insignificant, according to our data.

According to our logical engine, the most optimized solution is a wide scale bombardment. Levelling the sector will easy the reclamation of the xenotech device. Our analysis suggests, that the bombardment has a chance of 0,0354% of harming the device. 

This chance is considered acceptable.

Execute operation “Burning Mercury”, as provided by His Will. Detailed orders and logis solutions are attached. 

Praise the Omnissiah.

Archmagus Dominus Prater Fulgutae, commander of the requisition fleet of Holy Mars

Outskirts of planet Nemides, 12,456 imperial meters from former hive capital

The pounding of guns echoed through the night. The artillery has been delivering deadly cargo for two days in a row. Regular guns wouldn’t last that long, but the barrels from Stygies VII kept glowing into the night without any harm done..

“Ceasefire for 5 460 seconds. We need to lower our heat signature…In the meantime, provide holy blessings and blessed oil…” clicked the vox. Skitarii alpha-colonel Sigma-Igni-Gamma 516 checked the vox network and the advanced overlay in the local noosphere. The chaff and data corruption were widespread, lowering the effectivity by 2,56 %. which was just annoying. 

On first sight, S.I.G. 516 didn´t resemble modern Skitaarii troopers. He didn´t all the biological replacements, but still – never judge a book by its cover. He was provided by many cranial support systems, which were making him a fearsome opponent..in the terms of artillery battles. Long-range scanners, noospherical link with scouts and spotters and even some more. Even his trusty battalion looked different. A little rusty, but more…human. But their weaponry was as blessed as the guns of Mars and their firing protocols and doctrines were set accordingly. 

“Adjust the firing solution to 3.25, 6.46 and 4.53.” he snapped the orders to the rest of the unit. The old tanks started to move and the giant cogwheels started to turn. The war machines were quite uniques – the old machines were stored in Stygie VII underground for a long time. The simple cogitators were practically immune to the techno-heresy and time and they worked on the presumable efficiency. S.I.G-516 analyzed his feelings and labelled them as “satisfaction”. There were many complex factors and theories in the art of war, but he always prefered simple solutions. The chemistry of explosives in the shells, ballistic trajectories, physics of speed and force – pure, simple math. Unbendable, incorruptible, remorseless.

Yet still…

There were many gravity anomalies or time dilation anomalies, presumably the result of the missfunction of the xenos device. But still – it was nothing compared to the sheer power of the Imperium. The guns started to pound again the ruins of the city.  S.I.G 516 sighed. The whole operation was a mess.

“Start the execution of the corrected firing protocol on my signal…..Beep.”

 These ad-hoc operations generally do not work and Archmagos Dominus denied the use of the nuclears. But it was quite a while since they´ve left the garrison. He and his units were often marked as “obsolete” or “rusty”, but the old machine spirits still worked on decent efficiency. S.I.G 516 had experience with new machinery, right up from reclaimed STC or with Cawl´s inventions, which were linked to the operation “Burning Mercury”, but somewhere inside, he never trusted them. It’s hard to improve single things like a spanner or holy oil. Overcomplication in the name of the invention is, was and will be heresy, after all. Omnisiah blesses the original Blueprint…

Thudd…

…but math…

Thudd….

…is….

Thudd…

eternal.

No nic, a teď k listu…   

Vzhledem k tomu, že Magor je opravdu funky možnost si zahrát nějaké projekty na relativně normálno, tak jsem se vyhecoval k tomu dobarvit pár pánů z dob Hereze a to Solar Auxilia. V rámci W40K jsem přemýšlel, jako co by to šlo nasadit, protože narozdíl od ostatních (Marína, Chaos aj Custodes) tato armáda chvilku pravidla do W40K nedostane a protočit znova Elysii by bylo moc kombo, jsem slyšel.

Velká zbroj? Check.
Velký guny? Check.
Červená barva a láska k destrukci? Check.

A voilá, jasnej Mechanicus byl na světě, s menší dobývací podporou. Není to ideální, ale kdo dneska je, že?

Na 90 PL jen 1635, což je trošku níž a jsem fakt zvědav, jak se mi bude „frézovat“ 180 orků dle pravidel city fightu. Myšlenka listu není moc těžká – pěchota a dragouni budou držet střed a artilérie to bude tepat (Na 5+ lol, protože střelba mimo LoS je vždy obscured lol)..

Ale co, není to turnaj a já mám zaměřené jiné ceny…

A na závěr si dáme písničku!
