On the Shoulder of Martyrs (Black Templars 40K Quest)

[X] Rescue them all, killing the foe to a man.

Do not suffer the enemy to live and merely capture new prisoners.

Honestly I just want to avoid the middle ground option. It makes sense but I want to try taking more risks then we might usually do.

We're black Templars and they're famous for being duel seeking, champion slaying, glory hounds.

Hm, it is just one Chaos Marine leading Cultist chaff. We've still got some heavy bolter ammo

as much as other choices would make more sense
we are space marine and even more so black templars

backing down from foe`s is not really i thing they do unless there is a really good reason to do so.
 
[x] Rescue who you could and perform a fighting retreat.

Noblesse life aren't worth life of our brothers .
 
[X] Rescue as many as possible, holding the enemy back.

Not cowardly, but not practically guaranteed to get our squad further crippled. We really need to actually think about whether we can realistically win without suffering awful casualties.

It is very much possible to win.

There's one Chaos Marine there, one without a helmet. So long as a single bolter round hits his head, he's dead.

The 19 cultists could be gibbed with just bare hands.

If a human mob is a threat to us now, then a Chaos Space Marine is definately one.

-[X] Kill those that you can't rescue. Death in the Emperor's embrace is sweeter than life in Chaos.


I really want to go for the "slaughter them all" option, but... I'm just not sure if we can take it. It's not a tactically sound option without us being able to stack things in our favour.

Anyone who dies does not have enough faith in the Emperor and is a traitor.
I dont know if you know this, but that's a Word Bearer quote in the Dark Apostle novel IIRC before a badass fight scene. Also..

We are Astartes, or as good as, we aren't just any sort of warriors. If we can't win against one traitor space marine, or use our environment to bring down buildings on him, or lure him away so the other can more easily rescue the prisoners from the cultists, we might as well give up now.

Moreso, we are Sigismund. It is time we live up to the name we chose.
