Founding Chapter: Ultramarines Founding: M32/Fourth Founding Chapter Master: Torvald Thunderson Homeworld: Midgardia (Current), Ragnarok (Former) Fortress-Monastery: Aula Fortis (Current), Aula Occisi (Former) Speciality: Combined Arms, Naval Warfare & Boarding Actions. Colours: Red and white with a golden trim. Symbol: Crossed golden lightning bolts behind a red lambda 'A'. Battlecry: "We are the Avenging Storm!"
Since we have dozens of Librarians, can we not just have them use Future sight or something along those abilities that in which would allow them to know which children around the worlds are compatible with gene-seed?? In this way , we not only increase chances for transplantation and further up the process without damaging the future of a world. We got dozens of worlds out there that we can have our Astartes take a look at with future sight and even still have a faster way to have find out which is a compatible gene-seed test slave.
Also, we don't have nearly all the facts. The Knights of Caliban either left out some of the truth, didn't realize how corrupt their leadership was, never got the whole picture or lied to us to make themselves look better. But the info we have on the Fallen is biased and wrong.
In canon it stated that most of the fallen had no idea about anything that luthor was planning. It just that those who were in league with him were in important positions like the planet defense system so that when the Lion came back he just assumed everyone was a traitor when he got shot at.
Him realizing he made a mistake and apologizing is what start to convince the fallen he meet to trust him again in son of the forest.
It would be very funny to make a point of having the Tau spread anti dark angel propaganda by "helpfully" informing them of the dark angels's dirty laundry.
A Spacehulk sounds more like the Rock. Frankly at that point are only chance of survival is forcing those fucking gremlins to wake that idiot up early. Sure that would only happen if they have a choice between waking him up or we set off the atomics we get on board the Rock. But otherwise the Rock is just going to fucking murder our fleets.
It was never explicitly described as a spacehulk we (both the characters and the questers) just interpreted "bigger than a battle barge", "filled with ancient technology" and "green" as obviously an ork controlled spacehulk. A Dark Angels Gloriana like the Invincible Reason fulfils all the criteria.
Right, so good news folks. Instead of an upper end of 150-200 Chapters wanting us dead specifically, its instead a much more reasonable 48-72 chapters. We'll only have to worry about being outnumbered at most 20:1.

As a Chapter Master, Torvald should guess how many Chapters could invade the Sector. If the Tau think one angry Chapter is bad enough... they could have a very bad time one day.
forge world are likely to be ready soon enough maybe turn 20 or turn 21 depending on dice rolls and if the casualties the DA got are consistent and happen in the battle of Beowulf then there are gonna take a while to go for round 2. Honestly we have more pressing issues then the DA as the other Imperial crusade we can expect and the steel hunger

Well the only chance we have of fighting that is by boarding it, we've done massive damage to their numbers, but a Gloriana is going to gut our fleets. Also if we can take it, that might just be enough of a slap in the face wake the fuck up. Hopefully the Knights evac the system with all their shit ahead of the Gloriana and they can lead it into a trap... or lead them right into Heimdall's orbit and run when the entire defense fleet jumps it.
I was expecting maybe one or two successors lending companies with them and focused on the Knights.
These bastards brought multiple full strength chapters
On the plus side we have Tau reinforcements inbound and they've already lost a ton of marines.
On the bad side they gutted the Iron sentinels fortress monastery I don't even want to imagine how much Gene seed relics and war gear were lost there.
it's kind of baffling why they would throw themselves at our home worlds and bleed themselves when they've so far failed to do real damage to their primary targets. And how they manage to on a strategic level, get so deep into the sector without any warning.
Fucking dark angels
We shouldn't even counter attack because if we go burn their recruiting worlds then they can call the rest of the imperium for help.

@.Space Knight, i would like to expend my charge of Escort messenger's in this chat.
Space Knight— Two days Ago at 4:33 PM
Done, Thread: Fallen Discussion is allowed to be used for the next 24 hours
The Least Angry Black Templar — Two days Ago at 4:34 PM
Gentlemen of the Round Table, as many of you know, my DeathWing has been hunting one of the orginal fallen.
Osmadiel...
I have found him, in the fallen Sector of Asguardia, from what Rumours i can gather, they are part of a triumverate with two other chapters, The Iron Sentinals, and the Storm Avengers. The Iron sentinals I will not lie to you all and say i know much about, but the storm Avengers, they are fucking monsters in void Combat. My Dread wing fought with them like 90 turns ago, and i reading the turn result as the entire Heretic fleet was boarded and captured, before even a single Shot was fired by the surface guns of Eriad V.
We should pull Every Weapon we have off the shelf, I am aware its only Space Knights Decision, but we should probably pull the Rock, The invincible Reason, and perhaps even The Truths Razor if we can get it functional this turn. The Storm Avengers are perhaps the only group in the galaxy that i doubt our archeotech will be enough to beat in thier prefered enviorment. We need to do a full deployment.
LocalHereTek — Two days Ago at 4:34 PM
Did you say Storm Avengers? I wrote a omake for them back in like turn 100! 4th founding chapter, Specialty is voidwarfare, they have elite huskarls, And at least six battlebarges. They really rely on their techmarines though, for obvious reasons, keeping them back in their chapter monastary. When i made them, i imagined them as a Problem Solver for the imperial Navy, and balanced it with the tech marine dependency. Take out the tech marines, and they are crippled long term, as so much of thier production comes from the tech marines.
Someguy11112 — Two days Ago at 4:34 PM
@. Space Knight , i would like to burn one of my Scry Charges, specifically the one I got from the ordo malleus inquisitor.
Space Knight — Two days Ago at 4:34 PM
Sent to you, Just remember, observation is itself, a action.
Someguy11112 — Two days Ago at 4:34 PM
That was... Sucipiously quick.
Space Knight — Two days Ago at 4:35 PM
you guys are predicitable.
Vigliance12 — Two days Ago at 4:34 PM
I'll call in the successor chapters Death and Raven Wings then. I have the One off charges for it
@. Space knight I would like to burn as many charges of my one off messages as i have to get this info to the death and raven wings of succesor chapters we dont have control of yet.
Space Knight — Two days Ago at 4:35 PM
...Are you sure? This flurry of activity could cause suscipion to go up.
Vigliance12 — Today at 4:34 PM
Yes. If Templar is right, this is where all the fallen you have said are remaining are hiding. once we catch them, thats this whole shameful buisness dealt with.
Someguy11112 — Two days Ago at 4:38 PM
Okay, have read through the Seer report, @.Mustardo, you need to use your Blind Seer Charge on the Storm Avenger Chief Librarian. He see's us coming and they lead us into a slaughter with 6 Ramilies.

Knight should be off his PC by now, so I am just going to copy it over, you need to read this to be able to understand this threat.
"The three powers of the asguardia sector are each alone a Challenge for your legion, together, they may prove superior,
First among The three is the Triumverate, Formed of the Iron Sentinals, the Storm Avengers, and The Knights Of Caliban, It is they who have held this sector together even when it should have by all rights fallen apart, it is also they who lead the sector to reclaiming more of its subsectors from the stain of chaos. Blinded by your ally, thier vision is still good enough to know of somthing coming for them, though the green you wear as a second skin has made you seem to be the Orks of grendal, with only the barest hints passing through of the truth.
Second Among the Great powers is the Mechanica Sororitas, Sworn to the Triumvirate, they are none the less one of the driving forces of the sector, Featuring not just all six forge worlds, but the Order of the Sacred Storm, Having cast of the Cult of Mars, the Cult of the Machine Emperor seeks innovation in a way not seen since the Dark age. Only recently unified however, they do not pose a threat to you, and can barely help the triumvirate they are sworn to. Given time to develop however, thier titans may darken the very skies, as GuilimansDecree is repaired.
Third among the Great powers of Asgardia is the Tau, While easily the lesser of either of the other two powers, let alone both, they are a rising star, while the other two are only just casting off the weights of ignorance, given time, they may bring the Imperium to its knees, not through force of arms, but through offering a creed that promises a future without war.
The First Among the Equals is the Storm Avengers, Known For thier Void Warfare, in it they are unmatched, equiped with Archeotech equal to your own, they capture battlebarges and strike cruisers as easily as a guardsmen bleeds.
The Second among the Equals is the Iron Sentinels, Beloved protectors of Asgardia, they have taken threats that could break subsectors upon thier homeworld, and come out time and time again. Make no mistake, while they may be few. They are perhaps the greatest warriors of the triumverate, with dreadnoughts in every company ready to crush any resistance.
The third among the Equals is the Knights of Caliban, The ones you seek, though i know not why, for are they not the sons of the lion? Defending Caliban from Traitors and worse during the Heresy? They bear no marks of Chaos or other fell markings upon them, the only mark against them consorting with Xeno's.

(DELETED BY USER, 4:02AM)
Oh, thats. much worse then i had.
Your introgation of the Fallen Alexus has born fruit, for he has revealed that he was heading towards the place where he "felt those like him, growing in number." It can only be the Fallen. Having established a chapter in the fallen sector of asguardia, your records indicate that the Iron Sentinels Refused to abandon the sector when the imperium withdrew. and Alexus Says only "choose your battles wisely, for the Storm Will avenge those you kill."
We are still doing this right? If we let the Fallen grow, they are just going to spread the secret, and our reputation as the most loyal sons of the emperor will be ruined.

Their enemy, Got a vote.
And to Answer your edit, ask those that were there... oh wait, you cant. so let me tell you
everytime you break my rule about metagaming, i add 10 to the enemies roll,
I ended up adding nearly 200 To the rolls this turn.
On the bad side they gutted the Iron sentinels fortress monastery I don't even want to imagine how much Gene seed relics and war gear were lost there.
it's kind of baffling why they would throw themselves at our home worlds and bleed themselves when they've so far failed to do real damage to their primary targets. And how they manage to on a strategic level, get so deep into the sector without any warning.
for the geneseed relic and everything IS, the 2nd was able to hide them, now the question is if they were able to survive the self destruct, really hope it did cause if not then we would have to give a lot of geneseed to the IS, unfortunately, they the did lose all the gene-seed of the entire 2nd company. but the 2nd sure went down swinging hard.
as for them attacking our homeworlds, these are likely all simultaneous attacks, this is only the first update, we will likely see in the second one how the battle for Beowulf went. but yea the whole sector needs a shit ton more escorts, them getting so close to Vanaheim and the IS Homeworld without much more resistance is a failure of scouting, for Midgardia we knew they were coming thanks to the OP archeotech sensors and so we baited them.
By my count we have elements of 6 chapters attacking us.
Of the attackers, 1 Chapter Master is confirmed KIA, 2 1st Companies are KIA, 3 Strike Cruisers are lost and total DA losses number ~700 Marines.
I don't think the full Chapters are here. Usually its the 1st and 2nd companies that go on these hunts. But who knows, we may in fact be dealing with 30-40 Companies between the 6 Chapters. These guys will almost certainly be leaving Scout Companies and some reserve Companies at home, just in case.
I'm just hoping that some of the Forge Worlds are fixed by the time they return... if that is possible.
And some people were wondering why we didn't join the Tau. The Tau probably would have had us fortify the planets better over the time skip.
...Maybe we could set up a defense pact regarding DA matters? Hopefully, the Tau put up a decent defense or take this as a big learning experience.
As a Chapter Master, Torvald should guess how many Chapters could invade the Sector. If the Tau think one angry Chapter is bad enough... they could have a very bad time one day.
If they try to pull up that many chapters to work in concert the Inquisiton is going to tear them to pieces and there'd be plenty of power armor going after them.
They take the break up of the Legions very seriously. The DA's can get away with a few working in concert once and a while a legion sized force would get the imperium to tear them apart.
for the geneseed relic and everything IS, the 2nd was able to hide them, now the question is if they were able to survive the self destruct, really hope it did cause if not then we would have to give a lot of geneseed to the IS, unfortunately, they the did lose all the gene-seed of the entire 2nd company. but the 2nd sure went down swinging hard.

Even then deep strikes at chapter homeworlds at the best of times is costly. And they just payed that bill twice. We aren't even their primary target. Honestly it's concerning because if those were the forces sent at the secondary targets then how many are they sending after the primary?
On the plus side Beowolf is the largest concentration of our chapter and the Tau and the Knights have a warning and time to dig in. So it's going to hurt for them.
aside from the losses they are taking I can't imagine the inquisition, ignoring this fragrant, a violation of the break up of Legions. I don't think they can put together this kind of force again for a good long while

Yup the Dark Angels came here to destroy anyone that may have a hint of the truth and eradicate their shame so they wanted to kill all of us in one fell swoop.

...Do you think the Tau need to know that little detail? I could see Torvald 'forgetting' something so miscellaneous given the political clusterfuck this turn has been.

Wonder if we can hit them back with a mass information campaign and shout their secret across the Imperium. Get some astropathic choirs to start projecting it
Sure few would believe it but if the DA start burning the places that heard the message they'd probably get found out real quick.
Ideally someone smarter than me could figure out a way for the finger of the broadcast being put on the Inqustion and kick off that Cold War into a hot one.

Problem with that is it would make us much more important then we already are, and we're already getting a lot of eyeballs cause of the Imperial crusade coming for us and more importantly the dark angels are just too important for the Imperium, the inquisition is likely to bury that info and use it to blackmail the dark angels to hell and back, but again too important, too numerous and too much needed.
The Dark Angels and other chapters just had a massive blow, those Terminator Armour are only for there eilte, so 65+ as we dont know how many got killed in Mjolnir. That along with the nomal SM that they lost along with gear and tanks, they are gonna need a long while to recover from this
It's even strongly hinted in some of the lore that the Inquisition already knows about the whole Fallen thing and doesn't actually care, they're just annoyed at how the Dark Angels go around team-killing anyone else who they think might have learned about it.
...Do you think the Tau need to know that little detail? I could see Torvald 'forgetting' something so miscellaneous given the political clusterfuck this turn has been.
Both because it will prevent them from panicking, and that it might prevent them from cutting their losses. Because if they think that the dark angels can throw this again and this time at them they might decide to cut their losses here and focus on protecting their people.
If anything with the Dark angels now on a crusade desperate enough to move 6 bloody chapters? we might need to consider joining the tau completely.

Oh I don't think the secret would move the inquisition to stop them. I'm saying that their reaction to the secret being spread would force the inquisition and other legions to step in. Because their reaction to people knowing that is to burn both the teller and the one that was told.
And a full Legion, running around burning things in the imperium is a very fast way of getting the high Lords involved and sending people to get them to stop.
Because while they are very important and needed that math changes when they reveal just how coordinated they are, and they start burning imperial places.
It's a long shot and probably not worth it but we need SOMETHING that'll get them off our backs and prevent them from just sending chapter after chapter at us.
The Dark Angels and other chapters just had a massive blow, those Terminator Armour are only for there eilte, so 65+ as we dont know how many got killed in Mjolnir. That along with the nomal SM that they lost along with gear and tanks, they are gonna need a long while to recover from this
Their losses are distributed across 6 chapters. It's a big loss but not a crippling one.
And there's a lot of other DA chapters to call on.
Oh it'll cause massive issues across the imperium as space marines that are needed at other fronts are pulled to attack us but if they're this desperate that will not stop them.

I wonder if the Tau will get any samples of regular and Terminator Armour. I wonder if that stuff would affect their Battlesuits.
I can only dream of Space Marine Battlesuits that could completely replace our Assault Squads. I wouldn't be surprised if such a discovery makes our Jump Packs obsolete. Other than a few urban combat situations, I could see us throwing most of our Jump Packs into the trashcan one day.

Speaking of we really need to rush our research on the Shields. Considering we're fighting peer opponents now those just shoot up in priority from an already high place.
The sooner we can start slapping sheilds on our marines the better
