Children of Commorragh

While the war council gathered to deliberate on the encounter with the black armored space marines, Spiritseer Uehl Zan was tasked with tying up a loose end. The Drukhari raiding party bludgeoned a few solar cycles ago had managed to escape with part of its force and Farseer Qeláeth Nightspear had tracked their movements to a Mon Keigh industrial world. Uehl Zan was told to interrupt their harvesting of chemicals and prevent their escape, setting them all free from their depraved path.

As the Ulthwé force moved forward, they encountered only a minor force of light skimmers and a unit of nightmarish biological creations led by a malformed and twisted Haemonculus. The Aeldari quickly pushed forward to take command of the field, destroying the skimmers with withering lance shots.

The Drukhari called in reinforcements, with winged Scourges and two further skimmers attempting to take down the heavy elements of Zan’s force. The Falcon grav tank exploded in a bright fireball, but thanks to their legendary foresight, the wraith constructs dodged the killing shots aimed at them.

The counterpunch was brutal, with Dark Reapers and the elegant ancestral walkers demolishing the Drukhari counterstrike. The contest was no longer in doubt as all the enemy fliers crashed to the ground.

The enemy leader, an Archon called Drazvor (according to on comms intercepts) went on a suicidal rampage, managing to reach the backfield and destroy some aspect warrior and guardians. His assault, while bloody, was futile and he barely escaped capture as Ulthwé claimed another victory.

++++++ Final Result: Ulthwé 66 Drukhari 33 ++++++
