Legates Orphio and Codicier Antius

Legates Orphio (right) and Codicier Antius 

  Broken and close to death, Legates Orphio phases from existence on Armatura, unnoticed among the countless slain. The Evocatie commander found himself upon a slab with the brooding form of a Necron Nobel regarding him from across the dark room.
  The errant Necron Lord set Orphio upon a crusade of his own. A crusade to oust the traitorous World Eaters and World Bearers from the 500 worlds.
  Orphio decided to bide his time, seeing an opportunity to save his beloved Ultramar and the course to gather a force strong enough to return and wipe this pompous alien from the face of the galaxy.
  Reunited with the Codicier Antius, a powerful psyker. Armed with contempt, the two heroes embark to bring vengeance from the ashes. (For the full story, keep an eye out for the fan fiction "From the Ashes" to be posted soon)

Codicier Antius

   Codicier Antius was the sole survivor of a retribution force sent by Lord Guilliman to learn of Armatura. Given leave of his oath made after the Council of Nikea, Antius wields the eather, striking down traitors with impunity.

   Antius follows the discipline of telepathy, enjoying the irony of forcing the fallen legionaries to turn upon each other, echoing the great treachery they have committed.

The Battle of Portus Augustonemetum

       The Astropath howled as she died. Writhing and clawing at the ground as her broken mind collapsed in. Over and over she let loose a single strangled cry, " They have come to punish usssss.... They have come to punish usssss.."
      As the psyker died in agony, Captain Galenus or the Ultramarines 5th company turned to Centurion Proximo Tarchon, a man out of time, leading survivors from Angrons rampage across the 500 worlds 10,000 years ago. "The eldar have come brother, I thank the primarch that we have such vaunted warriors to fight at out side." 
    "The machinations of the warp are strange indeed Brother Captain, it still astounds me that we have found ourselves in the future. No matter, my warriors are at your disposal." answered Tarchon
    "Very well, assemble the company, we ride to war!" Declared Galenus.

The following is a battle report detailing a 10,000 point apocalypse battle between Ultramarines elements from 30k and 40k as well as a titan detachment and Eldar from various prominent craft worlds. All names and models copyright of Gamesworkshop.

Turn 1

The Eldar titan is pounded and loses 9 hull points

 The first turn saw the Ultramarines advance their spear head under the protection of the guns of the Titans and defence networks, many eldar felt the wrath of those guns, but none more so than the titan, which lost almost half of its hull points.

  The eldars first turn saw the death of the valiant reaver, and the bracing of the eldar lines.

Turn Two

 Turn two saw some of the most destruction possible, The eldar  titan (in the above picture) fell to the massed fire from the storm lord, earning it an immediate accommodation. The space marines let fly with their fury, damaging the other eldar titan and reducing on of the eldar super heavy tanks to wreckage. Vaulting into the fray, the Landraider spear head launches into the eldar ranks. Twho Contemptor dreadnaught talons deploy to assault the enemy hq, though they died in the attempt, they fought valiantly.

  The eldar deploy a flanking force behind the spear head destroying two rhinos along with their spacemarine cargo while eldar bombers flew overhead destroying much.

Final Turn

The final carnage

 The Ultramarines sally forth from their landraiders and fell the Avatar and obliterate the wraithgaurd, asecond superheavy and other eldar. The reaver returns and takes immediate vengence felling the final eldar titan.

The eldar turn saw the return of the felled titan and redestruction of the reaver and other elements. in the final moments of the match, every shot was loosed in an attempt to destroy the storm lord and bring the game to a tie, and with the final shot, it was achieved. The final score was 24 to 24

    "We have manged to hold them here," Tarchon said. Tarchon looked out over the destruction of the battlefield, the burnt out husk of an avatar lay broken at his feet. Reclimation forces were dragging the destroyed form of the storm lord to be repaired. 
   Captain Galenus walked up next to the old centurion and replied, "Yes we may have ended the battle but the war has only just begun."
