Hello Hive. I have been working on a story to place "behind" our campaign we are running. It will feature IG Nids and Necrons so I have the intros for the Campaign in general and then one for each faction, including a intro for each factions Army leader. Please help me with tips and enjoy the read.
Campaign Intro
Date………………………………… 999.M41
Planet………………………………Bel’kas
Planet Class…………………………Manufactorum
Current Engagement….Small Ork infestation
Deploy?.....................Negative
Planet………………………………….Saracas
Planet Class…………………………..Mining World
Current Engagement……………………None
Moon…………………………………..Dueran
Value……………………………………**HIGH** Teleporter Technology
Bel’kas is a planet seldom troubled by the alien races that infest the galaxy but is none the less a massive Manufactorm planet that produces arms and armor for the multiple armies of the Imperial Guard. After suffering through WAAAAGGHH Gratskik in 984.M41 the population has dealt with multiple small green skin outbreaks…..but the troubles have just begun…..War is coming.
Necron Intro
“They’re…..here….” the scientist exclaimed as his fellow miners uncovered the ruins of an ancient civilization… “I had a feeling today would be a good day!” he said, “Grab the other miners…bring them to this site…I must have the ruin excavated by….” The scientist was cut short by the faint buzzing emanating from the ruins….he turned to see what appeared to be a small opening that he had failed to notice before….the buzzing originated there. He called a few Guardsmen over to him…and moved toward the entrance. He slowly stepped inside curious as to what had triggered such an entrance to appear…He glanced back at the other miners and soldiers behind him…hesitant to follow… The other Guardsmen sat huddle by the Chimera in the distance…The scientist turned back to the gloom inside the tomb…but all to late…a faint green glow appeared before him…then was upon him…his skin being stripped atom from atom until he fell dead…merely half a man remained….the others began fleeing but the trap had been to well set…Skeletons made of metal began appearing from every ledge and hole that the ruins contained…awaken from their slumber….Guardsmen fled left and right but everywhere they turned the glow of green gauss followed and left only pieces behind...the Chimera driver went full throttle and narrowly escaped explosion that occurred where it sat….His report was the only to be heard….He sat with his commanding officers on Bel’kas and could not stop muttering….”They… just…just… woke up….”
The planet was a vast connection of long silent tombs that now buzzed with life…Necron warriors slowly crawled from their resting places make into the light of the nearest star. Sarekh came slowly awake…he glanced about his large chamber for his eternal slumber and pushed himself up…he grabbed his scythe and silently strided through his tomb…Immortals bowed as he passed. He came to a large opening where he could hear the sound of battle…He pushed his head into the light and seen how pathetic the Imperial attempts at stopping his army were… “I won’t bother.” Sarekh simply stated before turning his thoughts to the larger invasion at hand….reclaiming this sector from the feeble enemies that now occupied it…
The Necrons usher forth a never ending tide of warriors and battle barges…ancient weapons of war that haven’t seen light in millennia but now called upon again. The Necrons have awaken…and will not stop until this whole sector is claimed….War has begun.
Imperial Intro
“Reports are coming in sir.” The Guardsmen stated while standing at attention. The tall commander standing before him looked worried, “How can I pull troops away from the Cadia engagement to deal with our backline front? Fuckin’ undead robots always making matters worse!” “Sir!” another Guardsman exclaimed as he ran into the command room where they stood. “You called for me and my regiment?” The commander turned to face him, “Yes you and 20 other regiments are being redeployed…..and I’m coming with to make sure we can end this conflict quickly and easily.” The Guardsmen started to object,”But Commander Landin you may…” Landin’s look silenced the Guardsmen. Landin gave him orders to get the Valkarys ready to retreat to the Cruisers in orbit…He pulled up a map of the sector on his screen…’Bel’kas Dueran and Saracas all need to be defended‘ he thought... Soon the fleet was ready to depart.
Commander Landin and his regiments arrived on Bel’kas 6 days after departing…Bel’kas had not been effected by the Necrons…yet…
Commander Landin began fortifying the major cities and Manufactorums that dotted the landscape of the planet…he prepared orbital defense lasers and fortified his positions on the group…soon after the Imperial Guard arrived the planet had transformed into a battle ready warzone with supply lines and roads established for Imperial usage…Commander Landin stood in his command room overseeing the Planet…War has come
Tyranid Intro
Log: Inquisitor Prozimo Ordo Xenos
------I have located a few worlds in the Ordallus quadrant that I previously studied that have undergone some drastic changes in the past decade….Elthador Maiden World of the Eldar, a sprawling jungle landscape turned to sand…not a trace of any organic matter on the surface…Carae, a recruiting world for the Imperial Guard, reduced to a barren rock.I had only a few minutes to investigate the strange towers left behind…I extracted samples but the DNA is like nothing ever seen on this end of the galaxy…my ship is currently making its way to another planet that has lost communication with the Astronomica. I fear whatever is causing this is space bound and has already claimed trillions of lives without a word of warning…I shall decide my course of action upon reaching Welhas…
------- Upon arriving at Welhas I discovered a world in turmoil…an invasion was taking place…but no word had left the planet…It’s as if there is a shadow cast over all planets when they are invaded…I have encountered these creatures closely…too closely. My servitors are tending to me medically but I fear the lines will not hold for long…these creatures attack with such ferocity…such aggression…almost as if the whips of their masters were behind them.
-------- This is Inquisitor Prozimo Ordo Xenos…I…I require aid…they are here… on the planet… in my head… the…the… the aliens…they came from underneath and over head…they changed to our every battle strategy…to our god damn ammunition…they changed and overcame us…It will not be long now…if this message ever reaches the light of day I need…I need others to know…these barren planets…these rocks in space…are places of utter horror where trillions have been slain and devoured…I’ve never seen such….such endless hunger….*last transmission*
Commander Landin lifted his head from the monitor…his face stricken with utter horror…Bel’kas was located in the same quadrant as Welhas and the other planets…it must not be long now before these “aliens” arrive here…He reached for his vox caster…dead silence…the Shadow was already upon them….
The Tyranid Hive Fleet which came to be later known as Hive Fleet Borsba had grown in strength tremendously…Proximo didn’t know it but he had discovered the first Tyranid Hive Fleet to approach from the Galactic West…They newest and most well equipped Hive Fleet the Imperium had seen thus far…and it was bearing down upon an already embattled world…Bel’kas the seat of Imperial Military in the Quadrant was in the jaws of this Great Devourer….
Hive Fleet Borsba was infamous for a single Hive Tyrant that made multiple appearances at every battle… where the Tyrant appeared lines would be shattered and moral lost in seconds…the natives on Welhas referred to him in their native language as Drogga which translated to Imperial simply meant The Horror…Now the Tyrant was preparing to lead his largest campaign yet…to claim the biomass of the Imperium…and whatever got in the Fleets path…
The names had been voted on as a group so I would rather not change those. Thanks for the read any tips are appreciated before I share this with my group.
