Sergeant Neria and Ravenwing Bike Squadron "Kaftiel" At your suggestion I have requested Sergeant Neria from the 2nd Company to join us. His expertise in anti tank tactics and our earlier experience in combined operations make his squad an invaluable asset to the 3rd Company. He will lead the Bike Squadron Katfiel that includes the Attack Bike Qaddis. Also joining us from the Ravenwing will be the Land Speeder Chasan. Sergeant Neria gave the crew of this Land Speeder great praise for its bravery in the Battle of Hartford. |
Devastator Squad 10, Zakkiel, will provide heavy weapons for the company. Sergeant Ariel is extremely well versed in the placement of his marines and has proven that his tactics, while unorthodox, are superior and have on more than one occasion taken the enemy by surprise. Brother Ariel was promoted to Sergeant a few months after you left us. |
Three days from now, Brother Bish will assemble this force in the Great Hall of the Dark Angels. After he is finished blessing the troops and equipment they will leave the Rock and embark on this most important work. This is a formidable force that has proven itself on the battlefield. It will succeed in hunting the Fallen and all other enemies of the Emperor. It is with regret that I am unable to lead this force myself but the mission you have given me at the behest of the Inner Circle is an important one and I will embark on it immediately. I pray this report has been satisfactory and that we will speak again soon. Until the curse is lifted, Master Esme 3rd Company Dark Angels |
Whirlwind "Hasmed" Three tanks have also been included in our retinue for this campaign. The first is Whirlwind Hasmed, which has been particularly blessed with accuracy in hitting its targets. The second is Vindicator Valoel . Valoel's crew is incredibly fierce and has on more than one occasion sprinted to the front lines and |
released its payload of imperial justice with extreme prejudice. The third is brought to us by our First Company the Deathwing. The Land Raider Loelet has served them well and its Machine Spirit is strong. It's armor is nearly impenetrable and the fear is causes as it roles on to the battlefield is immense. Woe to the enemy that falls beneath it's treads! |
