Commissar Yarrick and the Senior Officer in charge walked into a bunker overlooking the field, carnage everywhere.
Wrecked chimeras scattered across the field, even a leman russ was shelled out.
The building around the rounds and them were either smoking or burning, orks were holding out across this section of the city.
The Vox crackled, "This is squad A, moving out."
"Affirmative" Replied the vox operator as he received many more calls almost exactly alike.
The Imperial troops marched forward through the building, chimeras advance down the roads loaded with troops.
A Leman Russ was leading the pack.
The Heavy bolter was set up on a ledge, the sergeant could see the orks almost a building away.
Meanwhile the Junior Officer was advancing through a rubble strewn street with his staff and advisors.
2 Squads of light infantry advance through one of the shelled out imperial bunkers with ease, taking positions with their snipers and commissars.
As the rest of the imperial troops took postions as reinforcements for the coming wave of orks the leman russ spotted an ork dreadnaught a quikly fired a blast from the battle cannon and then another from the lascannon, completely destroying the machine and sending shrapnel everywhere.
The Orks advanced slowly through the terrain, screaming war chants as their leader Ghazgkhull Mag Uruk Thraka...
Buggies and wartruks raved forward firing, but doing little damage to the leman russ.
Yarrick and the Officers raced forwards from the bunker after seeing the war lord, taking cover from any fire in a burnt out building with a few other squads of imperial troops.
The Light infantry kept their position, with a birds-eye view of the ork positions, the imperial troops on the other side stayed where they were, mounting guns upons guns into buildings and creating a massive firing line.
The Leman Russ rolled forwards into the square, apparently unaware of the tank bustas as the chimeras followed.
Inside the tanks armoured fist units were waiting to get out, the commissars inside too were getting cramped in the small metal coffins.
The Junior officer ran forward with his staff and commissar, unfortunately getting spotted by another ork dreadnought as they headed for cover.
The reinforcements also advanced, setting up in larger, taller buildings.
The chimeras spotted some ork boys and opened fire, heavy stubbers, heavy bolters, and multilasers.
Nearly destroying the whole squad.
The Leman Russ however saw the opportunity to fire upon another ork dreadnought, the battle cannon turned and fired upon the second machine, destroying it instantly.
The teams of guardsmen now saw the orks as they advanced in a horde of green.
The commissars ordered them to fire,as the lasguns fired so too did the bolters, autocannons and missile launchers, also grenade launchers.
Some guardsmen thought they were going deaf from the amount of noise their ears were taking in.
As the dust cleared the orkish horde was stilll running forwards, obviously oblivious to the casualties.
Yarrick could understand the mind of an ork, he knew that while that beast was leading them they would not dare run.
The orks took positions and began to rain bullets, slugs and anything they could throw at the guardsmen.
Massive casualties inflicted by the orks as the imperial troops dropped.
Ghazgkhull moved forward, firing as he went.
The orks were fanatical.
Tank bustas ran behind a russ destroying it as the iron fist unit inside took a few casualties as the commissar climbed out with the sergeant and anybody who was still alive.
Yarrick ran out of the building with the squad as they used a chimera as moving cover.
The imperial troops stood their ground firing at the building the orks were held up in.
The Commissars urged for more troops to overwhelm the orks, more troops ran forwards from the back ranks, taking positions in place of some fallen squads.
The Leman Russ rolled behind the ork ranks as they were all in the buildings, the Russ opened fire on one building, killing a squad of ork boys off instantly.
The remaining chimeras firing on the orks in the buildings relentlessly.
The armoured fist squad ran for cover in a building full of orks, the flamer cooked most of them as the commissar and troopers shot the rest to nothing but smoking corpses.
The ork warlord was going after Yarrick after he saw him make a run behind the tank.
The orks followed him in a desperate run across the street littered with shells and las shots flying through and over them.
The orks let off whatever shots they could as squads of guardsmen dropped.
Now with the ork warlord in the street with the bulk of his horde in tow, Yarrick and his squad opened fire on the warlord with 2 meltas and las pistols blaring, Yarricks stormbolter cause a wound on the mighty ork.
The guardsmen now encircled the ork troops and turned the street into a shooting gallery, the squads opened fire from the rooftops, the streets and from windows, the tanks too fired.
Ork bodies dropped as the firing turned the battle into a masacre.
The leman russ fired but missed, only killing two of the orks that were straggling behind.
The bolters cut down a few more.
The Imperials assaulted the orkish horde, bayonets flashing, the guardsmen, forced by their commissars and officers flung themselves into combat.
The Orks slashed and cut at the guardsmen as the commissars fanatically diced apart orks with their power swords as they shot their pistols at point blank range.
The squads dropped largely on both sides as the bloodbath continued.
The Orks that straggled behind ran forward with the rest of the army and whatever remained of that doomed rabble, firing as they went.
The troopers dropped to the ground as the few remaining chimeras took hits from more tank bustas, exploding in a furious burst of shrapnel and bodies.
The Commissar emerged from one of the shelled tanks, completely unscathed as he charged into the fray with his brethren.
The Orkish Warlord engaged Yarrick and the imperial officer, instantly killing the staff members as yarrick and the officer caused a wound on the monster.
The guardsmen that remained either shot and ran furiously into combat or tried to run as commissars executed them.
The orks had dropped in numbers rapidly, the guardsmen too.
Yarrick and the Officer assaulted the Ork Warlord as the troopers attacked the remaining orks, the battle was going well for the guardsmen in the streets as yarrick and the beast of armageddon fought, Commissar to Warlord.
The Orks claw fell upon the heroic senior officer like he was nothing, crushing him between its mighty steel tallons.
Yarrick meanwhile attacked the beast furiously, casting aside his storm bolter and drawing his power sword, his claw clampled onto the beasts head as the sword sunk deep withing the orks skull.
The claw had effectively torn off the monsters head in the process, as the last of the imperial guardsmen killed off what was left of the orks Yarrick stood victorious with the ork warlords head clamped between his power claw.
The Imperial Troops creid out a large cheer as the orks ran through the buildings only to get cutdown by the leman russ at the only exit.
Finally after so many years of hunting down the ork warboss Yarrick had claimed the beasts head.
