Alright, now I know things are tight in here, this Space Hulk hasn't seen the Emperor's light in countless millennia.

But Segmentum Command wants this place, and we're the only ones disposable enough to form the trail of bodies for the Kasrkin squad to follow!

Now, we'll have to bunker down here until we can plot our next course. Present arms for a field kit inspection! And remember, if your Entrenchment Tool folds, the Emperor's light shines through you!

Now, someone drag these bodies around to form a blockade. Those who are useless in life can at least provide cover in death..
>>
>>40901015
Any information on what we should expect inside this space hulk, Commissar?

Aside from dead bodies, I mean.
*pushes one aside with his boot*
>>
>>40901015
Commisar, Commisar! I have a plan!
>>
>>40901036
Lemmings?
>>
>>40901051
Of course! I may be able to rig up a sort of catapult with which to launch the dead bodies from. We can use the flung bodies to test out sections of the hulk before we move foward!
>>
>>40901030
Could be anything, Ruh.
Is that trooper you just kicked holding a trombone? Evidently field command thought it would be funny to send in the Cadian marching band as our support...By the Throne, how I wish I still had respect!

>>40901036
Your name, trooper?
>>
>>40901067
Lemming, sir. Guardsman Lemming, reporting for duty, SIR!
>>
>>40901064
Whatever you do, Lemmings, don't do that to my dead body.

>>40901067
Yes, and I saw one a bit earlier with a flute.
Speaking of support, how did it go with that palatine sister after our last battle? She said she wanted to do a prostrate exam or something. Will we see them again?
>>
>hefts grenade launcher
If I can requisition flares, Commisar, this will be a lot safer. Otherwise, requesting permission to liberally apply explosives to the task, sir.
>>
>>40901072
Well, Lemming, your plan is stupid.

Quite apart from the fact that we need those bodies to form a defensive blockade, a catapult would have to be sanctioned by the Mechanicus before being used.

Or do you like the thought of being possessed by a heretical catapult of Slaanesh?!
>>
>>40901100
Well Lemmings was condemned here due to innovation and tech-heresy, after all.
>>
>>40901114
You should have seen what he did to the coffee-maker sir. We had to throw it out the airlock.
>>
>>40901090
T-The sisters w-were perfectly th-thorough in their e-examination, Ruh...my prostate i-is NOT tainted...now, let's not speak of the matter again...

>>40901092
I have a few flares, but most of this Regiments aren't deemed important enough to have light sources.
Take this one, though, be careful with it.
>>
>>40901114
Hey, the Mechanicum merely did not fully appreciate my Promethium Lance Idea!
>>
>>40901122
Liberal application of explosives. Got it, Sir.

>fires grenade launcher down the corridor.
>distant squeals drown out the pop of the explosive.

Hey Lemmings, you take point, alright buddy?
>>
>>40901122
Huh? She said prostRate, like, see how you both prostrated yourselves in front of the Emperor and then spend some time praying together. I head some of the other guys even ask for an examination once she had cleared up that misconception.
>>
>>40901133
Wait, I thought the Commissar approved of the idea. Oh well. Commissar, what would be the plan? Search-and-destroy?
>>
>>40901140
Just remember, if you run out of ammo, throw the grenade launcher and hope its balanced like some sort of boomerang!
>>
>>40901140
No, we'll use my Catapult. It can doubles as a trap for any malignant warp forces.
>>
Heh heh heh. Great! I haven't had the opportunity to clear out a space hulk before. So uh, Commissar, what are we looking for exactly?
>>
>>40901149
>elbows Guardsman
If you want to keep your head hole-free, I suggest you shut your face, Comrade. I don't want brain-matter on my Flak Armor.
>>40901152
>tugs at rope tied between grenade launcher handle and his wrist
That's what this is for Sir!
>>
>>40901015
Can I eat any of them?
>>
>>40901151
We make sure that enough of us die for the Kasrkin squad to be able to follow our trail. If there are enough of us left by the time we reach the objective, we hold position...

>>40901149
Leave it be, Ruh, we are NOT revisiting this...
>>
>>40901179
*hands over flask of water with a bored look*
For your ears, Gibbers.

>>40901168
Your mom.
>>
>>40901179
*slams ammo crate* Hey! Quiet in there till we figure out what to do with you!
>>
Just like old times, eh fellas?
>>
>>40901155
Lemming, if you make that catapult, I'm putting your possessed arse on latrine duty.

>>40901179
What? NO! why would you-...oh, its you, Gibbers. If we don't need them later, of course.
>>
>>40901192
Wouldn't surprise me if we were looking for that vicious old bat...
>>
>>40901201
Turn him upside down for a spell, Catachan...and, as an added warning, stop lining my cigars with arsenic, its not clever.
>>
>>40901015
Hello sir! The Administratum decided for me to be stationed here, given that it would cost too much to move me to my intended regime. I shall be the humble quartermaster of this regiment Nyan~

Good news soldiers! Your guardsman rations will now included smoke Grox jerky thanks to my logistic skills! On the downside, the ship that held our regiments recaff is heavily damaged from a solar flare , so unfortunately it has to stay planetbound for a couple of months. BUt i'll work something out don't worry.
>>
>>40901168
We are luking for da enemy and proceed ta give it da Emprah blessin'
>>
>>40901201
Aw, shucks. After the sororitas-team up all I have had to eat has been my old rations, Mara issue... Tastes like ash. And why did the box need to be locked?
>>
>>40901238
Because you're a monster, Hal.
Normal humans don't have cannibalistic tendencies and extra limbs.
>>
>>40901226
Hullo Sergeant!
>>
>>40901216
Huh? Now look here Commissar, I know most of my kin aren't favorable to men like you, but I only frag Commissars who turn out to be poor leaders. You seem alright so far. Besides, I ain't officer materiel, and someone needs to lead this lot.

*lights lho stick*
>>
>>40901222
NO RECAFF? NO RECAFF? I... I...


THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR LETTING A FELINID TO PAPERWORK!
Did you shred our order and play with the strings of paper? Did you spend your time chasing around red dots in your office? Scratch your chair to oblivion?
>>
>>40901222
>eye twitches involuntarily, staring at the quartermaster
Commissar, whats the penalty for friendly fire, if using an area of effect weapon?
>pumps grenade launcher, loading the next round.
Because I can'nae guarantee my accuracy without that recaff. Nor the safety of those who *cough* misplaced it.
>>
>>40901238
Iz dat wriggles I hear in dat wooden-cubic-crate?
>>40901182
As yah can see commi-boss iz learning to articulate in high gofic
>>
>>40901222
Grox jerky huh? I can deal with that. Hand it over
>>
>>40901248
Orders, sir? I'm ready to sweep out the nearby tunnels.
>>
Where is da enemy for krumping commi-boss

>>40901253
Iz my favorite little grotsman
>>
>>40901256
>>40901265
>>40901256
I don't understand why you are mad at me! It's not my fault the stupid techpriest had the BRIGHT idea of testing out an old pattern solar relay or something to power the ship, if it had the void shields raised nothing would have happened. ANd it's not like we don't have any recaff here, we just to have to ration it a bit until our cargo ship is fixed. If you are so befuddled by this, i'd be more than happy to give you my ration of recaff
>>
>>40901291
Alright, but make it quick.

>>40901256
RUH, YOU IDIOT! YOU CAN'T SHOUT IN HERE, WE'VE NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL IS IN THIS PLACE!

>>40901254
Then who's been lacing arsenic all over my Cadian cigars?
>>
>>40901307
Give dem my D-caffe cause its A: got nofing on squig-beer and B: Stops me krumping da enemy
>>
>>40901307
HAND IT OVER *trembling*

You can't do this to me! Recaff is to me what amasec is to the commissar.
>>
>>40901222
Quartermaster? Is that you? Is there any news considering me? Like, the normal pamphlet from administratum listing the reason I shouldn't live? Or another requisition from the sororitas? Or the regular letter from mister I?
>>
>>40901332
I can quit any time I want!
>>
>>40901307
Besides , you are lying. A techpriest would never try something different.
>>
>>40901307
Let me tell you something you little hussy. You know where I hail from? McRage. The only reason I'm not a fuckhuge Astarte in the Angry Marines is because I didn't come out of my mother's twat flipping off the world. I'm named "Cadianite" because I was probably the nicest kid on the whole damn planet. Which isn't saying much. So either you get me that recaff or I start letting my heritage get the best of me in your general direction.

*coughs*

Commissar, Requesting permission to take first Squad out on Recon.
>>
>>40901317
Dunno. Coulda been the mutant in the box here *kicks it* or maybe you've been in a toxic environment too long.

>>40901332
*offers flask* It's better with some jazz in it...
>>
>>40901357
I think that's my cousin Phillip, actually.
>>
>>40901317
Yes sir! "Crawls into a nearby tunnel, e-tool and grenade in hand"
>>
>>40901317
Commi-boss it'z da enemeh!
*A number of nasty genestealers come pouring out of an air duct luckily the number is 1*
>>
>>40901381
Time to earn our pay, boys! *fires shotgun*
>>
>>40901349
*trembling*
So can I!

Sorry for the shouting, commissar.

>>40901342
Gibbers, you freaked out that sororitas pretty badly when you said you "totally wanted to eat her", and did not end your sentence with the word "out". I don't think we'll see them again.
>>
>>40901381
*Krump!!*
Oh zog!
>>40901375
Get out!
>>
>>40901381
SON-OF-A-
>throws Lemmings in between him and the Genestealer
>fires laspistol over Lemmings sholder in the general direction of the Genestealer
>>
>>40901381
Does the enemy have nice, sharp teeth? Do they look tasty?
>>
>>40901381
FUUUuuuuu
*ducks behind dead body and starts firing at genestealers*
>>
>>40901397
Oh shit! " drops out of the tunnel above, directly at the back of the genestealer".
>>
>>40901332
>Gives her cup of recaff to Ruh, a bit scared
There there, nothing to worry about, i'll find a ship to get us the recaff in a week i promise!
Until then, one cup of recaff per day for all guardsmen. Expt from Ruh, who will get three thanks to mune and >>40901323 's donation. Anyone else wishing to do such donation let me know so i can ration it properly

>>40901342
Lemme See. Haldoran...Hal....Oh there we are! YOu have a letter from ....W-whuh ?!
>Looks on the name of the paper
WHY THE HELL IS ORDO MALLEUS SENDING LETTERS TO YOU ?!
>>
>>40901360
Permission granted, just make sure your corpse turns up mostly intact...

>>40901381
Throne of Terra! Its eaten three incompetents already!
>>
>>40901407
I've tried em before gibbers, and they taste like rotten nutrient paste! As for your second question, yeah, lots!

Least the eyes make good ingredients for the stuff...

*blows head off a genestealer*
>>
>>40901407
*grabs Gibbers and flungs him on the ground*
Shoot at them, you idiot! You can eat them later!

>>40901423
Thanks but WHY ARE YOU NOT SHOOTING THINGS?
>>
>>40901423
'e's the nice man who let me join penal regiment after Mara. He still wants to know what is going on with me, though.
>>
>>40901439
YOU HEARD 'EM. FIRST SQUAD, WITH ME!

>snatches Ruh on the way down the corridor
Before you take off the damn QM's head over Recaff, get on point.
>>
>>40901407
"Does THIS look tasty to you ya idiot!?"
>Starts wildly spraying las fire down the corridor, narrowly missing the other members of the squad, las bolts wizzing over their heads and smacking into the wall of chitin boiling in their direction.

"There are too many of them! Fall back! Fall back to the medicae ship wreck!"
>>
>>40901451
Idiot! Put him back in the crate before he eats a conscript!
>>
>>40901470
*Follow Cadianite down the corridor, less an arm*
>>
>>40901475
*snatches gibbers and stuffs him back in the box*

You wanted a hiding place, now stay in it!

Want me here, sir, or should I join the advance squad?
>>
>>40901474
You don't give da orders ya grot
>>
>>40901470
*panics* Why am I part of first squad? What do you think I'm good for? Who will take care of the commissar when he's out if I die? I'm not from McRage! I can't do this shit! IT IS JUST LIKE THE MARS INCIDENT I ... I... *¨hyperventilates*
>>
>>40901451
What do you-
>Looks at genestealer above her
Kyaaa!
>THe genestealer falls upon her , but his head is blown off from a sizzling white-hot blast. Ozone fills the air
Alright gentlemen i purposely misfiled a single crate of plasma pistols! Come get one or two!
> Takes another pistol and starts firing at the genestealers
>>
>the sound of las-fire dies down as the squad gets further down the corridor.

Sarge, do ya think they retreated? Cause we haven't gone that far... HOLY SHIT WHERE'S YOUR ARM. MEDIC!

>more rumbling can be heard in the ducts above them heading the way they came.

I should have stayed on the ship...
>>
>>40901510
Eh, ignore that pussy. Just help me dismember these buggies, like most of your kin are good at...
>>
>>40901510
>A genestealer screaming bloody murder and with talons as long as a human arm fell upon the guardsman in question from a rended air vent above the squad's heads...

>Needless to say he won't be giving out anymore orders, the genestealer now turning it's attention to the rest of the squad.... And it's a big boy...
>>
>>40901543
Well, it sounds like it's Promethium Lance Time.
>>
>>40901524
Arm? Wot are you-
Oh zog!
*Grabs Gibbers and uses his tentacle to tie him to my shoulder in place of an arm*
>>
>>40901515
>clocks Ruh in the back of the head with the buttstock of his grenade launcher

Do NOT waste that recaff panicking. Keep your eyes on point, we'll be alright if you do your job.
>>
>>40901543
*fires explosive buckshot at it*

C'mere to daddy, gorgeous!
>>
>>40901554
Dere gud as new
>>
>>40901543
RETREAT! Cadianite, if you don't want to die, RETREAT.
*fires lasgun in the head of the genestealer*
>>
>>40901565
>mouth hangs slightly agape.
>shrugs
Well I can think of worse uses for him.

>the taktaktaktak of claws on metal can be heard in the corridor in front of them

HolYFUCKINGSHITLICTOR!

>fires grenade launcher indiscriminately into corridor
>>
>>40901543
Th-that's a big genestealer.....
>DUcks behind cover as she starts shooting at it
I'm firing a weapon that has about a 16% chance of blowing in my face. Hopefully it won't until this boy is dead
>>
>>40901515
Ruh stays with me, I need someone to carry my single-malt.

>>40901543
Damn, idiot couldn't even die in the right place!
This is a reoccurring theme with this regiment...

>>40901524
Cadianite, we need to break this blockade, or I might get blood on my coat.
>>
>>40901563
>>40901553
>>40901575

>The genestealer screams in a mixture of rage and pain as one of it's arms is blown off at the elbow, putrid ichor and a smoking hole burrows it's way through the side of it's skull.

> It only looks more pissed though, and it takes a swipe at the nearest guardsmen, the rest of it's brood following its example...

>The air vents begin to rattle with a greater intensity....

>>40901588
*gets boner*

Ohohohoho this is what I like best! *draws fang* C'mere! Come and earn your fucking dinner! *charges it*

RAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

AYE SIR! FIRST SQUAD ON ME!
>Drops to one knee
First Squad, Firing line! Aim.....Fire! Fire! Fire!

Damn, your teeth are GORGEOUS! But sadly I can't chat with you, I'm kinda busy being sarge's arm.

AHAHAHAHAHA!!! *slices off its arm, and a few tentacles*

>>40901606
>>40901628
*Charges Broodlord non-Gibbers shoulder first*
>>
>>40901606

>>
>>40901606
>starts shooting down the airvents in a specific pattern, to make the metal melt and collapses the rattling vent
At least no surprises from here.
>>
>>40901643
Quartermaster, if we survive this, I want you to report to my office aboard the strike cruiser for, uh...bed inspection!

You have a very nice chest...

>>40901628
I really am going to have to shoot you at some point, Gibbers...
>>
>>40901681
Finish that thing, and I take your leg, Lemming...
>>
>>40901652
*Rips off non-Gibbers side clawed arm and hands it to him*
Take dat!
>>
>>40901696
*gets long cut across the chest*
Ow! Sir, we could use a hand over here!
>>
>>40901707
Take his head, sir! I'm sure the Inquisition would consider it an artifact of Chaos Stupidity!
>>
>>40901643
>>40901652

>An interesting chain reaction occurs; The plasma pistol explodes in a spectacular fashion, raining shrapnel and hot gas into the narrow corridor. The Broodlord screeches in agony as new rents are opened in it's carapace, other genestealers next to it losing heads and limbs to the plasma billowing everywhere.

>By the emperors grace Seergeantkommando was not even touched by the shrapnel of the improvised explosive, and as the broodlord opened one of it's remaining eyes, it found itself tackled by 300 kilograms of 'not ork'....

>Purple ichor was literally everywhere after that, the creature letting out a near pathetic mewl when the sergeant slammed it into the corridor...

>The rest of the genestealers seemed to cringe as their leader was wounded... perhaps if it was finished off...

>>40901720
>>40901696
Commissar, First Squad standing by for Charge!
>>
>>40901707
Trust me sir, this is no ordinary catapult! It's a Promethium Lance Ballista! And it's done!

>fires the Promethium Lance at the Genestealer using the Ballista, the tip exploding on contact
>>
>>40901720
>>40901723

Do you mind?! I'm having a very...important conversation with the Quartermaster here...
>>
>>40901728
Oooh I've been running low on these! *hastily gathers some ichor and viscera*
>>
>>40901710
Thanks, sarge!
>>
>>40901696
*mumbles to himself* Oh so felinids are fine, sure, but when I get a piece of goat ass, suddenly I'm sent to a penal regiment?
>>
>>40901728
*Runs the fuck away from all the explosions nicking one of the Broodlords arms along the way*
>>
>>40901750
Ugh, fucking nevermind. Looks like we're about done here, thanks to the cat thing using a faulty plasma gun.
>>
>>40901750
Commissar, erm, don't make the same mistake I did, and make sure it's a female first?
>>
>>40901750
C-comissar.....wha-....You....I.....y-yes ?
>Blushes furiously
But duty first okay ? Everyone, i got a dozen more pistols from this crate . Kill those oversized bugs!
>>40901770
It was a pistol sir!

>Takes another and keeps shooting at the broodlord and his pack
>>
(THREE hundred kilos? I can't be more than 280!)
All right commi-boss! Wot now?
*Get's rid of Gibbers and fixes one of the Broodlord's looted arms to his shoulder handing the other to Gibbers*
Dere you go
>>
>>40901750
OI. COMMISSAR. LESS FLIRTING. MORE NOT DYING TO GENESTEALERS. DO I NEED TO PHONE UP THE SORORITAS AGAIN?
>grabs the pack radio reciever threateningly from the radio operator adjacent to him

>>40901827
Yes? Hello? Who is this?
>>
>>40901820
Well, now that it's over-ish... Here goes day 26... *nibbles at a ration bar*
>>
>>40901827
Yeah Commissar! Remember what I said earlier...
>>
>>40901827
Cadianite...you are in a penal regiment, of which I am in charge.
I have the authority to shoot anyone I damn well like in this regiment, and NO-ONE will ask "why".

Now, put the vox caster down...

>>40901827
>>40901850
Permission to KRUMP these usurpers commi-boss?

Guardsman Cadianite calling on behalf of the Commissar Gaurun. He needs a *cough* Reminder about solicitation on the battlefield from his Palatine Sister in Arms that he spent time with last rotation. She seemed quite *adamant* about his... fidelity? Hard to miss the meaning when shes polishing a promethium flamer.

With a last Scream the broodlord falls, plasma, lasfire, and bits of shrapnel tearing through the beast whilst it collapsed onto the floor... And through it...

>Any who looked down watched as the beast plummeted perhaps 10 stories down into the bowels of another imperial craft remnant, impaling itself on one of the spires below...

>with horror, Cadianite realises he was already pressing with one finger down on the transmission button

I was put here from boot, not because I did anything wrong, but because the IG couldnt admit to their star Commissar being heterical. How was I involved you ask? I shot HIM. Get my hint?

Well, least that's done.

Next time you take a look around at the malcontents that make up your "comrades", just remember you're one of them now!

No need to worry, sisters, the men of my Regiment often need to be put on punishment detail for forgetting their place.

NO, HE'S NOT SANCTIONED! THAT'S WHY HE'S IN THE BOX! SANCTION HIM YOURSELF IF YOU LIKE, HE'LL END UP EATING YOU!

Listen to me, now...there is a pit, a hole of despair in my gut deeper than any in this space hulk.
Its the pit of loss! I had principles once! I faced down horrors that would rust the Golden Throne, I was a hero!

THEN ONE TRIP TO MARS RUINED EVERYTHING! AND NOW? NOW I HAVE TO DROWN MY SORROWS JUST TO SLEEP AT NIGHT BECAUSE THIS RABBLE THINK THAT STABBING THEMSELVES IN THE SHOULDERS IS A GOOD DISTRACTION TACTIC!

>>40902818
Ahum, Commissar, while I agree on the "fuck the Karskin" sentiment, I want to remind you that Quartermaster Nihaonyan did have an entire box still somewhere.
Things are not as dire as they seem.

But there is a problem with Gibbers falling down into the space hulk.

HELP US! We're on a space hulk! Surrounded by genestealers!

I needed that. I did not survive Mars and more than 5 years in this bloody penal regiment to die on a crappy spacehulk.

KRIEGER, PEASANT, you two stop digging trenches. Keep your attention on your surroundings at all times, instead of the floor!

YES! Everyone, rebreathers on! It will help if the nurglite comes back.

Okay time to find explosives now that the air is gone. I don't trust bodies. They're either alive or the walls are covered in their blood. Didn't that daemonic cadian have a grenade launcher?

>Caring not for the infighting nor leadership, the genestealer crawls back to the vents to stalk the regiment, in special the catachan that burned its face with holy promethium, but also showing curiosity over the newly arrived Vostroyans. These preys are different from the other guardsmen on the ship, and as such, they must be dealt with differently.

>Learning from its errors, the genestealer holds the spittle into its mouth as best as it can by not opening it, lays low on shadows and doesn't make a move even though there are some guardsmen on the rearguard that have been almost left behind. It just waits and analyzes the regiment.

Blood and gore falling out of the remains of the vent, the beast remains unharmed and keeps its watch over the regiment, taking a note on avoiding to remain too close from the vent exit points in case another explosive-happy soldier wants to inspect them.
>>
>>40904055
>We had... casualties
I am sorry, Sister. The Emperor shall watch over them and they shall be avenged.

But now we must be leaving. Kasrkin are in bound and since you are not being dead, they don't want you in way.
>>
>>40904154
>blood and gore everywhere
Urgh. That will take hours to clean out of my armour.

Captain Mikhailovitch, do you confirm the extraction of penal regiment /tg/ from the spacehulk?
>>
>>40904203
Sorry captain, the commissar almost detonated his bolter right in my face and my ears are still ringing.

Still, penal regiment, in the absence of your commissar, let me say you did good work. I see more corpses of genestealers and tyranids than men standing.
>>
>>40904154
Gotta purge. Gotta purge. Gotta purge. Can't leave any alive. Can't leave any alive. Going to blast every whole big enough for a rat. Can't die here. Can't die here.
>>
>>40904281
Appreciate you saying so, but there's still a few sneaking around, and fire won't do us much good as long as we're in the void.
>>
>>40904286
Hey, I actually know that song too *hums along*
>>
autosaging soon. Archived as well.
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/40901015/
>>
Where is that letter of mine?
>>
>>40904355
Karsins are here. Time to clear out. I'm grabbing as much ammo as I can carry and getting out. Commissar might be happy we weren't completely inept.
>>
Is friend Commissar ded? He is missing extraction.
>>
>>40904486
No, I'm here, I dropped my hip flask some way back...
>>
>>40904496
Damnit, forgot the name!
>>
>>40904496
Ah! Wery good. I did not seeing you there. Alright! Clear out!

>he barks to the Vostroyans guarding the perimeter to fall in
>>
>>40904286
>The beast watches the guardsman in its oaranoid breakdown, attacking now would be so easy... so vulnerable.

>It holds itself though, a new need kicks in. The need of departure, the need of exploring. It begins tearing its way through the hulk's ventilation system towards the vostroyan evacuation ship's.

>Before embarking, it looks back at its brood. Laying foot on that ship means leaving it behind. As it smells the promethium in the air, it soon realizes there will be no brood to go back to soon.
>Fueled by the new need of exploration and its lust for revenge against the catachan, the genestealer embarks the vostroyan ship's ventilation system, ready to go into hibernation for the remainder of the warp travel.

>It would be so easy to just crawl down at night and slice the catachan's throat while he's sleeping. No one would ever know what happenned. As it begins thinking about this a new instinct pops out its head as it begins its hibernation, the ovipostor tongue laying out between its teeth:


>It needs a new brood for his new home.
>>
>>40904486
According to the sora he was busy clearing out an entire corridor on his own.
>>
>steps into view, the mangled husk of a sister sizziling; impaled on his now massive arm, dripping with bile.
Run, fools. I'm fresh out of mercy.
>his face and body show signs of heavy promethium burning, bile dripping from the exposed jawbone.
>with a mighty gurgle, he hocks a ball of bile the size of a helmet at the nearest soldier.

Work died down. I'm baaaack!
>>
>>40904496
Ah, nevermind. Good to see you back. I picked up the flask. *hands over flask of single-malt*
Is it true, that thing with the corridor?
>>
>>40904554
*BLAM*

You missed one, friend Catachan.
>>
>>40904577
Ffffuuuu we need to get out!
thread is autosaging.
>>
>>40904589
[spoilers]That was a cheap move...[/spoilers]
>>
>>40904589
Well thanks, tovarisch. Almost a shame though, I was looking forward to a good hunt.
>>40904577
But we need to go get heavier firepower anyway..
>>
>>40904618
I know, I kid, I kid. Just for joke purposes. I really should have written that better.
>>
>>40904618
kinda, yeah, but you can always have another buggy that escaped and bears a vendetta against Gary
>>
if someone can tell me when the next thread starts, Ill be there as a baddie if I can.

>proceeds to chase the embarking IG to the airlock, lobbing balls of bile as he runs
>>
>>40904606
Relax we're on page 3. We've got plenty of time.
>>
>>40904618
>>40904653
Feel free to carry on as before.
>>
>>40904657
Now there is some room for food...
>>
>>40904657
so far the commissar seems to be active on mondays
>>
>>40904700
Alright, thank you
>The beast sets its spot on the vents above Catachan Gary's assigned barracks. Keeping a watch over its prey sleeping spot before finally going into hibernation for the remainder of space travel.
>>
>>40904774
well if he's active in the mornings like hes been, I can do that when I'm carpooling to work. 2-3hr drive to the work site.
>>
So, mondays confirmed as field kit inspection official days of the week?
>>
>>40904808
ah, good. This will be fun

>sets down newly acquired flamers, sits down to relax and clean shotgun
>sniff.

Thought that might happen.

>moves to other side of room from vent, sits facing it, Fang in reach.

Heh, no rest for the wicked. Guess I'll have to clear it out after a catnap.

>finishes weapon maintenance, leans back for an open eye nap...
>>
>>40904810

(europefag) Here it's an afternoon/evening thing.

>>40904875
fine by me, but it depends on the commissar
>>
Welcome aboard IV 2358764 The Emperor's Moustache, friends.
>>
>>40904929
>From time to time, the beast opens one of its eyes to check the its surroundings. It can't stop staring at him sleep.

>Both know the other's watching, yet the genestealer does not move, does not react.
>It knows that sooner or later the time will come and that its prey will be waiting for it to show up.

>It will make the hunt more entertaining.
>>
>>40904952
So I see the thread started about 9 am, in US eastern time. If that isn't going to be the exact time, I'll just keep a watch in the catalog on mondays
>>
>>40904952
I have no problems on when these inspections are done, actually, I check 4chan almost everyday so when the comissar feels like doing then I'll sure be around. Also, perhaos the wiki page from 4chan should include links to archived threads?
>>
>>40905047
>very entertaining indeed... I'm gonna use your parts to make a very special batch of moonshine...
>>
Err...hello. Sergeant Jonah Danvers reporting for duty. Who's the CO around here?

>>40901222
[Deadpan voice] What.
>>
>>40905769
That would be Commissar Gaurun, but he is busy at the moment. Welcome Serzheant.
>>
>>40905867
Ah, thank you, sir. How can I assist?
>>
>>40905981
Take a seat and prepare for warp translation.
>>
>>40905769
>>40905981
Just so you know, there's a genestealer about ship somewhere. Be on the lookout, and find me if you see any sign of it.
>>
Tries to sneak away before the sororitas remember he is there*
>>
>>40906246
>Evading guardsmen patrols and misleading as many CAT units are sent to check if there's any Genestealer pressence on the ship, the beast tries to leave no evidence of a Genestealer ever laying foot inside the ship.

>One not born in catachan can trust a catachan word so many times before starting to believe a man is paranoid, poor fools.

>Everytime, once everyone goes to sleep the beast ends back on its spot in the barracks' vents. Sure, it could just jump down and kill as many guardsmen as possible, but then it would be its end, without a brood a new sense of a greater self-preservation has risen in the Genestealer's psyche, on wherever planet it sets feet it will need to infect its inhabitants to ensure that a spawn is born, and to do that he needs to stay alive.

>Nonetheless, the prey knows its there, and it knows the prey's watching
>>
So... Does anyone know where my letter is?
>>
>>40906977
Did you eat it? Oh, and you might just hide in the vents and air shafts from now on. There's a genestealer somewhere in the system. You find him, eat him.
>>
>>40907126
Last I knew, quartermaster Nihaonyan had it. And... Genestealers do have sharp teeth, don't they?
>>
>>40907209
Better believe they do...
>>
>>40907262
Then I might try and have a chat. I like people with sharp teeth... Climbs into closest vent*
>>
>>40907302
>Stays away confused, given the phisionomy of this guardsman, not sure if tyranid organism or just pure alien.
>>
>>40907302
Mhmm. Good luck with that...

>surreptitiously attaches small tracker to gibbers' fatigues leg as he climbs in
>>
>>40907371
Before I go deeper... I have to say those sisters of battle confuse me. Didn't they want me for some Dies Natalis, whatever that is, last week? Now they seem to see me as abomination. Like they had never seen me before, right?
>>
>>40907499
Well Gibbers, you are an abomination. Cannibalistic and mutated is no way to go through life as an Imperial soldier, son. But right now, it's convenient to have you hiding in the air system, to keep that bug some company.
>>
>>40907302
[To Gary] I, um...what's the man who climbed into the vent shaft's story? He seems a bit...well, odd.
>>
>>40907683
I suppose you are right. Still, their change in attitude was so sudden... *Starts crawling deeper*
>>
>>40907761
Gibbers are you really chatting with a genestealer.?
Are you seriously an alien halfbreed too now?
>>
>>40907735
You got that right. Apparently he went nuts on some world called Mara. Got stuck with his squad somewhere and he ended up eating em. He's a mutie too, but he's useful at times like these
>>
>>40907863
I would love to chat with him... Or her... Anyways, as far as I know, I'm a full-breed human though.
>>
>>40907863
I wouldn't worry about him. There's a reason I let him hide in there. Useful idiot and all that...
>>
>>40907976
>Takes a look at Gibbers. Isolated human, no way out fast enough. Probably no one knows where he currently is inside the vent system.

>Begins approaching, mouth's open. Ovipostor tongue's ready.
>>
>>40907874
He's not, um, dangerous, is he? To us, that is. Emperor knows, I've been getting little enough sleep recently as it is.
>>
Takes a comfortable position and digs a package of rations* might as well try and eat some... I still have two more boxes to go through... All savings from Mara, heh. Why do they taste like ash... They should be in prime condition and all, and have cardboard flavor promised. Hmm...
>>
>>40908193
>Grabs Gibbers by the head and forces him to look at it in the eyes. One may be blind, but it's still as hypnotic as the other.
>>
>>40908163
He hasn't tried to chew on anyone here, far as I know.

>activates auspex, reads tracker on gibbers and any movement near him
>>
>>40908232
Hi. You do indeed have some nice teeth. Wanna chat? I have some grub if you want it.
>>
>>40908232
>beepbeepbeepbeepbeep

Ah. There we go!

>tosses stun grenade into air duct
>>
>>40908232
>>40908239
>>40908271

>Slowly it forces Gibbers mouth open, it's about to inject its genestealer genes inside him but then notices a small blink on Gibbers leg.

>It has been baited
>>40908275
>Throws Gibbers aside and tries to outrun the blast but in the end falls from a vent before Gary.
>>
Also, we're about to sage
>>
>>40908275
You get him out. I fire my hand flamer.
>>
>>40908306
>Grins like a shark
Hello there, buggy boy!

*BLAM*
*BLAM*
*BLAM*

>blows smoke from shotgun muzzle

Hahahahaha that was almost too easy! Still though...

>hacks off its limbs, splits it's head in two

Can't be too careful.

Now! Time to get the still ready...
>>
>>40908408
>Outsmarted the beast shakes on a last hope to get its revenge on the catachan. As it limbs are being cut off, one of his claws arranges to hit the catachan's eye before the blade finally finishes it off.

An eye for an eye. Literally
>>
>>40908306
>>40908275
*Stunned, with impressive headache and very confused*
>>
>>40908464
well played sir!

OWW!! FUCK!

Dammit damnation! Ach... well shit. Thank the Emprah for bionics...
>>
>>40908535
Same, this is certainly not the last player-controlled tyranid you will see, though. I'll be back.
>>
>>40908508
>tosses in a flask of moonshine and a meaty claw

Nice work, Gibbies! Enjoy the meal
>>
>>40908535
Yeah one leg and four fingers and some bone and muscle parts of my right arm are bionics. It happend back on Krieg, when a mortar granade detonated next to me. An Eye is no big issue, but it will be hard to get the parts, for soldiers of a penal regiment.
>>
>>40908567
oh yes, I look forward to more of these cat and mouse games. Let's see how much better Gary does when he gets a bionic eye... you may well have done him a huge favor
>>
>>40908640
Damn, you bout as machine as a cogboy by now. But yeah, the wait don't worry me none. Plenty of men have got by for years like that.
>>
>>40908662
Indeed I have, it suits the character to have a bionic eye actually... and gals love Catachans, gals love Catachans with scars even more!
>>
>>40908706
Well, I had luck that a tech priest died on the same day, so they had the spare parts.
>>
>>40908593
Oh... OH. Genestealer? Are you dead? Why do the nice-teethed ones always die or try to kill me...
