You are Sol Prementus, son of a man of godlike power, and the symbol XI is burned into your head. You've been in a slave pit for over two months, tinkering with weapons and tools while planning on freeing those similar to you from their oppresive alien masters. These Orks may be stupid and brutish, but they are none the less dangerous. As such you have bided your time, making weapons out of their scraps and the junk they call guns.

You hace conducted approximately 24 weapons test on the Orks over the month, each time making your guns better suited to the task of killing Orks. After the 15th iteration you deigned it time to begin preparations for a breakout, killing all of the Orks and freeing the humans in the process of the plan. Through stealth and planning you have succesfully liberated 800 people, having them live inside of a series of tunnels and huding spots that are inside of the walls. In the meantime you have had them tell others of you, preparing them for a battle that shall free them.

Around 3000 of the 6000 slaves in the pit know of the plan, and you and your assistants have crafted or fixed over 3000 guns. This is due to you having them form what could be called an assembly line, having many steal weapons and scraps when the greenskins arent looking, and showing them all of the schematics and designs necessary to create or fix the weapons...

During this month you have learned much outside of your tinkerings. The people have taught you their language, a mixture of smooth and harsh words that you mastered within a day. They have also taught you about numbers, which you learned in less than an hour. You have also payed more attention to these people and their appearances and attitude towards you. Many see you as a spirit, others as a symbol of hope, but the thing they all univerally see you as, is the embodiment of the Dark sun.

These people are deathly pale, with long unkempt blonde or red hair and pupiless eyes. They are lithe, lacking any extra fat or flesh due to their constant working and lack of food. You can see and almost feel their malnutrition, and many are sick due to the lack of hygiene or care. You plan to fix this problem though, soon enough.

In front of you on a bench lies your gun, specially designed by you, and your armor that you also made yourself. The armor is made of metal that you scraped together and made to fit you. Behind you is the door leading out to the general tunnel area, and through it you can reach the others and tell them of the plan. Over to the side though is a tunnel you have been digging due to sensing something...useful on the other side.

You decide to continue digging into the wall. You are not sure of what is exactly on the other side, but you believe it to be something very beneficial. You turn and grab the pickaxe you stole, a long piece of wood with a metal double sided head, before heading over to the hole. You walk inside of the tight passage, bare flesh scraping against the sharp rocks without a care. You would have made it cleaner and better functionally, but time is of the essence, and you do not have time currently for that.

You reach the end of the tunnel, a black wall of rock in front of your face, and put your hand on it. You can feel that something on the other side, now you just need to reach it. You step back, grip the pickaxe, and then pull back...

You hit the wall with an approximated amount of necessary strength, and it crumbles immediately. The wall of rock falls away, hollow due to the area on the other side. You take a step back as the rocks hit the floor, patiently waiting for them to stop before walking forward and through the newly formed hole. On the other side is a small pocket of space with a pedestal in the middle, and on top of the pedestal is a solid grey metal shape.

You walk over to it, seeing that it is small enough to fit on your back, and look down at the words on the bottom left.

You walk over to the pack, examining the letters and symbols on the bottom. You put a hand on it, feeling smooth grey metal that is of a far greater quality and strength than anything youve had the experience of working with. Upon seeing it you become extremely curious of all the technology and secrets it holds, wanting to take it apart and examine it right there. Despite this you feel that it would be nigh impossible to actually breach it with anything you could find in this pit.

As you run your hands over it the top suddenly opens up on the top, while the front glows a little and more words appear.

"MATERIALS NEEDED: 10 POUNDS OF METAL, 10 POUNDS OF EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL, 10 POUNDS OF SCRAP=50 BOLTS"

Interesting, you wonder what these "bolts" are or can do. Certainly they are for a destructive purpose, though what purpose you cannot say.

You decide to leave it where it is, and instead bring back the required materials. These bolts interest you, and how this pack will simply turn the items you bring into weaponry or ammunition sparks a curiousity in your head. You turn and walk through the tunnel back to your makeshift home, dozens of scraps and junk lying around. You begin gathering the scrap first, bad metal, broken guns, and a variety of other pieces until you reach ten pounds.

You deposit it next to the pack, before running back and grabbing a heavier gun that is exactly ten pounds. You dissasemble it and then bring it back and put it in an orderly pile. Last but not least is the rare and precious explosive material, which you have stored in various fashioned containers. You bring ten pounds worth back to the pack and insert all of the materials.

There is a silent humming sound as the packs internal workings begin putting together and shaping the inserted matter, and you watch with interest and curiousity until the humming stops. A rectangular hole opens on the bottom of the pack, and out slides a chain of what you assume to be bolts, which look like slightly enlarged bullets...

As you look at the bolts and the pack you are struck with a flash of inspiration. Suddenly its as if you know everything about this technology that there is to know, and especiall what these bolts can do. You stand back up and run down the tunnel to grab your gun. You quickly dissasemble it entirely, before putting it back together in an entirely new configuration. Once you do that you rush back down the tunnel to the pack, and look between the bolts and your new loader for the gun. You grab a shell and pull, causing more to come out along with it as you attach the belt to your gun. It stays there, and you look between the gun and belt of ammo in knowing wonder.

Glad that you have found a new piece of technology that is actually advanced, you pick up the pack and put it on your back. With the gun in hand you walk out of the tunnel and back to your home. This is definetly appreciated, but for every second you spend not fighting the people spend seconds more enslaved by the Orks. It is almost time to go and free them, you have a number of charges and weapons, and everyone is ready when you are.

>>40247535
Call a meeting and figure out a strategy for destroying the orks.
>>
>>40247535

Alright. Pass out our makeshift weapons amongst the people and hide them in various locations. Make sure everyone knows where to go when the revolution begins and that the slaves understand to travel in groups and conserve ammo.

We are going to create chaos amongst the Orks as the humans retreat to safety and kill the largest orks we can find to cripple the leadership.

Now now the Sun rises on our time and as it does, the Age of the Orks sets, never to rise again.

It is time, time for the people to be freed. You begin grabbing weapons and taking them to designated storage areas only the slaves know about first. You do this for a while, passing through the rock walls as Orks yell and people work, until a good number are stocked. After that you move to a specific boulder and move it slightly out of the way to see a man using his pickaxe. He is dirty, his pale features hidden under dust and dirt as long blond hair rolls down his back. He looks down at you with a glance, and you nod to him silently.

He nods back, and you close the tunnel as he taps another slave and nods to him. You move to a special area, the one where all the guns are kept, and find a number of slaves silently grabbing and moving munitions and weapons. They all silently acknowledge you, some making a symbol on their chest as they proceed to pass along and move guns in almost complete silence.

The plan is ready, where will you begin the fighting at?

We should operate on our own for maximum effectiveness.

We should boobytrap the ork munitions while the humans start the rebellion at the pit entrance. It's more important that the humans have a clear route of escape than killing every Ork in the mines.

We should keep an eye out for really big Orks though, killing the Boss would be a huge nlow
>>
>>40248203
>>At the pit entrance far up. Kill all the Orks so the people have a clear route and work your way down.
We must enable our forces to move. We can only do so much by ourselves. Besides, the biggest orks will come to where the fighting is the hardest.

The fighting shall start up at the pit entrance, with a group slaves following you. The Orks up there must be killed first while the others begin the fighting down in the pit. This way you can free up a path for them to retreat, and work your way down until you crush the orks between a hammer and an anvil. You look down at the dozens of slaves and pick out twenty of them before gesturing for them to come with you. As you turn away you hear them following behind you, and your group heads up the many tunnels in the walls until you reach the top.

Ahead of you is a large entrance with Orks moving in and out of it. Some have materials, some are yelling at each other, and almost all have gunsin their hands. You heft your gun, hit the switch for full auto, and prepare to fight.

of course if there are humans or it's a lost colony then it's a different story but if we find an alien planet it's just cheaper in both humans and ammunition to just take out the entire planet. easier to extract minerals from an asteroid field than a planet.

And? Most of these planets are inhospitable. And even then, there are only so many. You do not get rid of even a single one, as many will be lost over the course of millenia.

I would prefer if we were willing to talk, but only when necessary, and we speak in a rather terse, to the point and efficient manner.

You raise your gun and aim it, fanning the lines of Orks as they walk around. As you watch you see a large a larger cart coming in, full of what appear to be explosives. You immediately gleam the tactical options opened to you by the explosives, and you plan on exploiting them to the utmost of your limitless abilities. You look at the Orks moving the explosives, two of them, and then squeeze the trigger with 100% sureness in your heart.

There is a crack as two bullets fly out, each hitting an Ork in the head and blowing it off. The other slaves immediately open fire in perfectly planned unison, having realized the same thing as you upon seeing the explosives. The sound of firing guns roars through the area as dozens of Orks are suddenly mowed down by fire. Despite the large number that drop instantly, they are still Orks and they have both toughness and numbers.

Less than ten seconds after the fighting starts you see Orks charging at your group, while others open fire with the loudest guns they have. As the wild bullets fly by you feel one whiz by your head, and you dont even look back as one of your guns goes silent. Another flies by and hits a woman in her neck, and she falls back clutching her throat before dying. The firing goes back and forth, with Orks surviving many shots as you keep on taking them down with precision headshots.

Meanwhile down below you hear yelling and the sound of hundreds of guns firing, accompanied by Orks screaming WAAAAGH all around. For now though you focus on the current fight going on, and the best way to minimize your casualties.

Leave the group and run to another tunnel ourselves. We can rally them towards the entrance.

yeah let's not be an imperious asshole like Dorn; let's just be emotive without trying too hard.
furthermore let's not be all prideful and just keep trying to learn and understand; we already seem quite inquisitive by nature. If Russ punches us in the face, let's take it in stride, think about what kind of communication that is, and respond back in "his language" (punching him back, probably)

Okay, I get where you're coming from. I think there's a middle ground to be had, though: we can be somewhat withheld without being a creepy or imperious twat.

So how do you guys think we can lessen the damage of the civil war? I mean if we bro it up with Magnus or Perturabo we could perhaps stop either of them from going bananas.

As the fighting grows more intense and more Orks fire upon your group, you begin your plan. You form the hand signals that you have taught them for over a month, and the slaves automatically follow your silent order. Twelve of them depart from the main squad, breaking up into smaller groupings of three as they head through the tunnel systems. You keep up the intense fire, realizing that your now down to approximately 28 bolts as you chew through Orks with head and chest shots.

Another slave is hit directly in the chest, sending him flying back, and you sidestep a trio of shots that couldve ended you right there. After fighting for a while the Orks are suddenly assaulted from all sides of the tunnel as your men and woman get into position. The greenskins are soon cutdown, and eventually the greenskins at the entrance are all dead. You mentally check and find that you have only 17 shots left, and you come out of cover slowly with the rest of your squad. You look outside and see that ALOT more Orks are on the way, charging straight for the tunnel.

A killzone is good, we have a good position here and can drain their numbers until the odds are more even. With a bit more people here then can probably hold while we can help out downstairs by being a beacon of moral and hope.

we need to find the biggest ork we can.

Establish a kill-zone, then head downstairs to finish up there while sending more to the entrance. Also, we could find more stuff top resupply the pack after securing the bottom.

Establish kill zone and trade places with a bunch of slaves while they go up we go down. Gotta make sure things are working out down there.

As soon as you see the Orks coming you act. Spinning around you look up at the other men and woman and begin making signals and gestures. One nods and runs down to get you twenty more soldiers, while the others all move into position and set up a proper killzone for the Orks. You take up your position with them, and the group of you wait for the Orks to reach the entrance in dead silence. You can hear the breahthing of your allies, their hearts beating furiously in their chest as they prepare for the next assault.

With eyes focused on the hole you begin multitasking mentally. When the orks come in your going to scythe them down, but as soon as the other soldiers get here your going to head down to support the other slaves and get more ammo. If the situation deteriorates you will have them blow the main entrance, and then clear out the remaining Orks.

As soon as your mind crosses that line of thought two things happen. First off, the extra twenty soldiers arrive and fill in other spots. Immediately after the Orks arrive at the cave, and 38 guns open fire on them. You drop Ork after Ork with devastating Headshots, and dont stop until your gun finally runs out of ammo. With reinforcements here and your gun dry you turn away and head deeper down the tunnel to assist the others...

(1/2)
>>
As you rush down you find many pieces of abandoned junk and metal, left by the Orks in their mad dash to fighting. Luckily none came up behind the group, that would have been particularly devastating to your plan, but not entirely ruining it at all. You stop and set your pack down as you prepare to restock on bolts.

Unwilling to spend too much time here, you quickly gather enough materials for twenty-five bolts and put them in the pack. It begins humming softly as it fills with more and more ammo for you to use. You hear the sound of constant fire, both human and Ork coming from above and below you. As you patiently wait you hear the firing above become more and more frantic, along with a number of screams and the sound of bones breaking or bodies slamming against walls.

Your pack finishes filling itself, and you put it on and rise up just in time for a VERY big Ork to walk down the tunnel. This one wears yellow and red armor, splattered with gore, and upon seeing you he smiles wickedly.

"Aww, da litle uumi found im'self sum dakka. Wut yu gona do wit so litle dakka to an Ork like me, sting mey?! HAR HAR HAR!!"

He lets out a harty laugh, and you calmly point your gun at him as he underestimates its firepower and strength.

Without hesitation you focus and pull the trigger, firing off a trio of bolts directly at his head. The Ork moved surprisingly fast for one of his size, having been hit by one bolt before his klaw managed to block the other three. He moves the claw from his face, a ruin of blood and bone with an extremely angry look. He opens and closes his claw one time before charging you angrily.

"WAAAAAGH!!!"

You immediately open fire again, bolts blowing away chunks of armor and even flesh as he rushes you without fear. The Ork nears and raises his claw before slamming it down and crushing the rock you were just standing on. You already dived backwards, sliding along the ground as you loose five more bolts. Despite the fact he should be dead several times over, he merely staggers back angrily while blood and flesh leak out of his wounds.

Well if the AdMech wants to get pissy because we invent superior technology and find ways to duplicate STCS then they can be pissy.

Seems like a kinda shitty thing to leave to the dice tbh

I don't like the idea that we are destined to all get killed off at all. Takes out player choice and renders our actions moot if we are getting killed no matter what we do.

Its all about the journey, not the destination. We all know we're going to die, it just matters what we do until that day.

>>40263037
Yeah seems kinda shitty tbh.....

Just dropped in to say that there is no guarantee we will be killed at all, let alone our legion obliterated because of heresy or something. Heck we could have been obliterated from history because the emperor needed a secret weapon for a terrible future he saw that was very possible(end times 40k). In the end im trying to keep us away from death, and give us a plausible reason to be wiped from history.

Also theres like...40-100 threads before we even reach that point, so dont worry about it.

It's just a Greek tragedy story, like >>40263079
said, it's about what we did with the short life our legion had that matters. Maybe influencing other primarchs with bro-ships, helping turn the tide of a great battle no-one knew we were at. All the while knowing that with great sadness our great deeds and victories will go unsung.

At the end of the day that'll be decided by the choices we make and the way Kraven tells the story. I'm just happy that I'm along for the ride.

Pls no meta

Not necessarily iirc the 2 unknown legions records were wiped from history. It doesn't mention us all getting killed, so it's equally likely our legion gets fed up with how big E runs stuff and we just take our legion far away from the imperium and start doing our own thing.

That's wrong. While the ending has been written, the journey is still the most important part. We will end up being wiped from the history books, but why? Why will that happen? That is what makes it interesting.

I dunno, this also kind of forces us to follow the Canon storyline of how the Heresy happened in all that. If we can't change what happened, why play the Quest at all?

We should have free reign to act in character and have those choices change the setting naturally, not artificially adhere to the established storyline
