Welp, we did try, if we wanted to have a better shot at this we would have had to build Dharok for it which we did not.

hmm . . . can counter magic remove enchantments?

Yes, but you need to be near it to do so. So no across the battlefield dispells and such.
11 of 25 sorcerers are now dead, have any of the chaos enchantments fizzled out on the warriors or siege weapons?

Not in time for the battle Unfortunately.

So then how are their sorcerers a weakness if killing them doesn't debuff the enemy in a useful timeframe?
less psykers to control any demons thy attempt to summon? a reduction of leadership so each sorcerer has to lead a larger force, more then they typically handle?

I was given to understand they don't have any Daemons and that there were Champions to command Warriors?

THey do not make rituals, summon ruin storms, curse you and your troops, counter spell your sorceries, summon daemons etc.
Essentially, Sorcerors are high utility/damage low durability units. Think of them as pocket nukes. I mean, you just singlehandedly occupied the entire army with your sudden sandstorm. Yes it takes a cabal of sorcerors to do that and oppose that, but it can be done by mortals.

So no matter what we do, the enemy's weapons will still go through our troops armor like it isn't there?
Cause that's what it sounds like.

If Dharok had the Rebirth Aspect, one wonders if it might have helped with turning any of the horde.
As it is, one would consider it imprudent to cede the initiative to the enemy. At the same however, the numbers with which to oppose the foe are... paltry.
Alas, there is no more time. One way or another, it will be decided soon.

No? The Enchantments make them hit harder and stronger but not ignore armor?
I mean, even in 40k proper, there are no ignore armor saves to my knowledge, and if they are, they are not common, the enchantments were an attempt to give chaos an advantage but you made preparations on your end as well, so how it turns out is something you have to find out.

Ah, ok, so Dharok was being Hyperbolic when he said the weapons would go through our armor like parchment.
Got it.
That's actually a pretty big relief. . .

Yeah, mechanically, they do not. But if they roll well, then I would write it like that, to make things more epic and impressive. It was why I stopped including mechanics in between paras and now post them at the bottom.

The attack preemptively plan is going to involve a defensive battle by the time they reach the static defenses, regardless. It is simply trying to maximize the chances for that battle by further paring down the horde before then.

How much of their Calvary did we take out?
Also are our sand bikes faster than their Calvary.

Not enough. You got their leader and knocked them down a bit but mechanically, they lost one dot of Leadership and discipline. But their Size remains the same.
Normally, yes, but due to chaos blessings, they are on rough parity, though you have superior stealth and maneuverability.
