Suprise Attack!

"Youz lots! Getz up dere! Find yerself some gubbin' spot and start balstin'! Warboss Grimfang bellowed at the lootas hastily scrambling up the rickity construction, trying to gain some vantage point from which they hope to deliver some orky retribution.

Rushing past his nobz, Grimfang could see Da Dok's 'ard boyz rushing headlong towards the oncoming eldar. Grinning to himself, he waved for the nobz to follow him as they turbo-boosteed right across the settlement, kicking up dust and gravel.

Two deff koptas dashed groggily across the eldar gunline and was brought down by the seer council on jetbikes. All the shots seemingly hit, despite the speed the koptas were travelling and each causing a wound, despite their toughness. As both plummeted to the ground, Snikrot and his komandos unveiled themselves from the ashes and immobilized a fire prism. The grots arrived from the central camp and headed off to join the lootas (and cover!)

Grimfang and his nobz again turbo-boosted nearer to the eldar line, the prospect of close combat tantalizing near. With a fevered bloodlust, the 'ardboyz crashed into the seer council, taking one down for the lost of 2 of their own. Undaunted, the eldar struck back with uncanny percision as a newly arrived dire avenger squad took on the komandos. Aided by the disabled prism, the komandos were wiped out. A far shot from the wave serpent took down a grot, despite the cover.

In the continuing melee between the seer council and the 'ard boyz, both sides were drawn.

With a relish, the nobz descended on the dire avengers and the immobilized prism. The dire avengers were run down while the prism was left a mangled wreck. Across the field, a lucky shot from the lootas penetrated deep into the power core of another prism, blowing it apart despite its vaunted holo-fields and fortuned saves, the debris scattering far and wide.

Things were looking grim for the seer council as another rider was pulled down and the farseer himself left with one wound. Despite losing combat, their fearless state left the 'ardboyz mindless of their own casualties. Then, the guardian jetbikes arrived to try and tip the favor towards the eldar. Jetting past the landscape, they closed to the lootas position.

The surviving eldar vehicles too closed on the lootas position, killing one. Detecting the threat presented by the newly arrived jetbikes, the lootas let loose and killed 3 of the riders. The survivors did not loose their nerve and pressed on the attack. Again, Grimfang led his nobz on a turbo-boost ride towards the fleeing eldar vehicles, positioning themselves behind the vehicles. The drawn combat between the seer council and the 'ard boyz finally came to an end as both the farseer and remaining warlock was swamped by sheer press of numbers.

The remaining guardian positioned their jetbikes to fire on the grots but failed to do any significant harm, killing just one of the weedy grot. with precision, the guardians retreated their bikes out of the lootas sight behind a pillar of rock. The eldar witch Eldrad and his accompanying dire avengers disembarked from their wave serpent even as the fir dragons from the nearby Falcon too disembarked.

With eloquent movement and grace, the Eldrad cast upon the painboy within the nobz Mind war. the overwhelming attack proved too much on the ork and he tumbled from his bike, lifeless. In a hail of fire, the dire avengers unleashed their blade storm and the fire dargons too unleashed their melta fury on the nobz. in the aftermath, several of the nobz were sporting bloody gashes, even Grimfang sported an ugly burn across his forearm.

With all eyes on the oncoming angry nobz, the lootas took aim on the idling falcon and punched through its thrusters coil, immobilizing it. With vengeance in their eyes, the nobz toasted the dire avengers, leaving the exarch alone to face the coming onslaught. Even Eldrad was not spared, but survived to continued the fight. The exarch and the wave serpent they were travelling on became history when the nobs were done.

Despite having fortuned himself, Eldrad could not possibly survived the many blows coming his way and the great seer was laid low. Silent fell on the battlefield as the remaining jetbikes retreated and the crew of the downed falcon made their way to safety across enemy ground. They've been spared, but the cost of this misadventure is too high for a race that is dying.

"Dats it??! Dats all dey 'ave? Wot panzies! grimaced Warboss grimfang as he plucked a helmeted head from one of the fallen eldar. "Oi! Bugzboltz! Get me a Transmishun to da Vile Minthras! 'an I mean Now! Souz git!" pointing at his senior Big Mek with his power klaw.
