The battle for Takon II The Scouts made landfall in two droppods. The droppods landed right in the middle of the Imperial Guard encampment. In the first were Ferrus, Motov, Naman, Helios and Domo. As soon as they landed Ferrus moved off to the nearest lookout tower and took position there. Motov, as an expert of heavy weapons went looking for the Armoury. He found it quickly, due to the enormous Guard detail guarding it. He had trouble getting in, as the commanding sergeant did not allow him to pas. Seeing himself troubled in his tasks, he resorted to violence. He punched the sergeant to the ground with one punch and asked looking around: “Anyone else?” Naman went straight to the vehicle park, and ran an inspection. After finishing, he started helping the maintenance crews. Helios picked up his supplies, and headed for the infirmary and helped the docters, trying to save injured Guardsmen. Lasse Domo stopped a soldier, and asked for directions to the Guard HQ. After reaching it, he introduced himself to the officer in charge, Colonel Dalus. Colonel Dalus cried: “Finally! May the Emperor bless you! It has been four weeks since I called for assistance!” Domo did not reply instantly, but started studying the map on the table, wich showed the position of the Imperial Guard and the invading Tau. Done studying the map, he replied: “We came as fast as we could.” Within a quarter of an hour, the second droppod made landfall. In this droppod Beltas, Dlas, Quandre, Ariel and Jont made landfall. Marcus Beltas, accompanied by Jont, Dlas and Quandre, left the droppod in search for a place to safely stash their equipment. Being heroes of the Imperium, with their deeds widely know trough out the galaxy, they were hailed as saviours. The company off such great heroes greatly improved the morale of the Guardsmen, giving them new energy. Ariel left in search for the HQ tent where he joined Domo in his discussion with the Colonel about the best tactics. Dalus: ”We should meet them head on, and we will have to become victorious or we will all die on this planet.” Motan Ariel responded “If we meet them head on we will never become victorious. They outnumber us, and they have better weapons than we do. They also have more vehicles then we, so we would not stand a chance.” Domo was on the point of ending the discussion by saying that the Colonel should leave the tactical part to his tactical officers and the Scouts, when Ferrus’ voice came over the comlink: “Serge, I’ve spotted a Tau Pathfinder team!” The last word was followed by a silenced bang and the words: “Got one, Serge!” Domo responded by punching the Colonel into a midday nap, and seizing command. He raised the alarm, and the Imperial Guardsmen pored out of their barracks. Ferrus was cleaning his rifle, whilst the Guardsmen formed defensive formations around the vital parts of the encampment, the HQ, armoury, hospital and the vehicle park. Andrei Motov handed out heat vision goggles to talented marksmen, to help spot the Pathfinders, who used their superior technique to become invisible to the naked eye. After another few shots from Ferrus and a lot from the Imperial Guard, the Pathfinders had finally fled, without taking their dead. The Guardsmen were ordered to stand down, and return to their normal duties. After Domo and Ariel had convinced that his tactical officers should decide over the plan, Domo gathered his men. “Trough us will the fait of this planed be decided.” Domo said. “If we fail, this planet will fall in to the hands of the Tau. It is our task to infiltrate the Tau headquarters, and kill all we can of their leaders. A second objective would be to find their battle plans. That way, we will know how they are planning to conquer this world.” Ferrus said: ”Killing leaders is like becoming a second nature to me.” “That may be, but we will still need to infiltrate their camp, and that is what I do good, don’t I?” “We know how big your ego is, but if it comes to blowing things up, I am the best in the business.”
