I am, but I'm rather busy right now - it's the end of the school year, and we have exams and such to prepare for. I do intend to keep participating, but my time is limited.

Out of curiousity, what was it?

Wait a minute - they're firing at us from 300 metres away? I thought they'd be around a few corners at least.

The last Praetorian fell, and the Imperial forces moved over and past their position without pause. Behind them, medics moved among the fallen and tended to the wounded, but there was surprisingly little work for them; aside form the Astartes, most of those hit by the Xenos plasma weapons were beyon...

As Crassiros and Vibius charged the surviving Praetorians, Halima reached out telekinetically and yanked away the weapons of those still fighting. The streams of plasma fire directed at the Imperial forces abruptly ceased. As the Deathwatch and Stormtroopers moved in to finish the job, she steadied ...

And done. About how many Praetorians are left?

A long burst of plasma fire seared over Halima at head height, and she ducked into a convenient alcove, gritting her teeth in frustration. Further into the refinery, she could sense the great warp disturbance shifting and acquiring new patterns; without knowing what the disturbance was in the first ...

Ah. Damn. Got my terminology mixed up. Post deleted pending a more accurate replacement.

What vault? You don't know anything about any so-called "vault". I realise that, I was just wondering if it was close enough for Halima to sense anything going on there. The remnants of the Praetorians are in front of you, the vault guards (although you don't know them as such), they're still in th...

He addressed his squad over the tac net. "Proceed to the warp gate. I will fulfill protocal and join you shortly."

:eek: That doesn't sound good.

CC: About how far away is this vault from where the fighting is taking place?

Go nuts. The Inquisition is always interested in live specimens.

A question that's been nagging at me for a while now: what's the appropriate address from a non-Space Marine to a Space-Marine?

At long last, the vortex shrank to a tiny point of unholy brilliance before vanishing with a faint, anticlimactic pop . A lingering aftertaste in the Warp and the devastation surrounding it gave mute testimony to its power. Their way no longer blocked, the Stormtroopers began moving up to support th...

CC: Do the psi-jammers blcok all use of psychic powers near the Praetorians, or just direct telepathic action? Could I, for instance, use telekinesis to grab one of their weapons away?

Ah. I take it one of the others is Hand Leader !Klilik?

“Feel free.â€

Edit that, Halima alone isn't going to shrink it. Its going to grow, even with her work. It'll just grow slowly and have weaker suction. Its had time to build and has multiple psykers feeding it. Darn. Edited. I guess it's up to the Deathwatch to do something about these guys while they're busy. An...

I'm not sure whether to be thankful or terrified at the revelation that it could have been worse.

Anyway, follow-up post made.

Halima gave an internal sigh of relief as the tubes began draining warp energy from the vortex, and reality around her conspicuously failed to unravel. As the vortex's growth began to slow, she released some of the drained energy to dissipate into the Warp; the rest, she held back for her own use. S...

That last warp trick is strictly non-canonical as far as I know; I thought it made sense, and it seemed to have actual potential as a means of dealing with the warp-attack-eating, Untouchable-flaying Ubervortex of Doom. However, if it’s ruled that it would be flat-out impossible (as opposed to Hal...

As Crassiros unceremoniously hauled her away, Halima allowed herself perhaps half a second of shock at Theda’s grisly demise before Inquisitorial training reasserted itself. This thing had to be stopped, or they’d all suffer the same fate. There would be time to remember Theda later, assuming th...

Hence "foolishly".

I foolishly assumed that a warp manifestation that could be summoned by psykers into a combat situation was on a rather lower power level than a daemonically possessed Warlord Titan.

Needless to say, this will not happen again.

...well shit. Does anyone have a spare Untouchable lying around anywhere?

And a minor note: Theda is (or, rather, was) a woman.

Halima muttered a curse. Clearly, attacking this thing psychically wasn’t going to help. Draining all her power reserves into one final strike at the distant psykers themselves, she gestured to Theda.
