Ork and Ultramarine Slugfest

The warriors of Ultamar after clearing their initial landing zone of Tau established a base camp, but their can be no rest for the vigilant. HQ had barely been established before the cries for aid came in. The sound of battle pulled the Ultramarine second company in several directions. Librarian Skippio lead a Strike team to face down the bug threat; The imperial guard unit in the area had gone quite after lots of screaming and gun fire where heard in the background of their distress call. Capt. Septimus led fresh Marine reinforcements to strike at an Orkish threat that had been discovered nearby...

Capt. Septimus led second company in a search and destroy mission to root out the local ork's in an attempt to secure the imperial flank. Septimus's brother marines preformed admirably slughtering the Ork's with the divine fury of the holy bolter, however, the marines were unable to deal with the fury of the Ork's warboss Big Boss Grognik Da Rumbla and his complement of Meganobs! As the fight dragged on Grognik would end up being responsible for all but three of the Marine casualties. Despite Capt. Septimus best efforts he was unable to come to grips with Grognik. After hours of fighting both side had suffered grievous losses but neither warlord had been hurt. Septimus believing the situation to be untenable without reinforcements, takes his wounded brothers and withdraws, but not before swearing revenge against Grognik!   

Ork's vs, Marines 11-10 for the ORKs!
