OOC: Cool.

IC: The Kizaurun stand at the forefront of the battle, shielding their Chryllite allies from further attacks. Only too late do the marines notice that the Shadowfang legionnaires are chanting something....

Suddenly, the sky is overtaken in black winds. The eclipse spreads throughout the world, letting only miniscule ammounts of light through. And finally, the shadowscales... change.

Growing almost a foot in height, their eyes turn a burning purple even as their entire body is overtaken in pure shadow. Their scales give off no hint of light- there is no reflection at all, as if they are merely a hole in reality.

OOC: Just for the record, it is a complete coincidence that this happened just after your marines got that thingamum on them.

IC: Growling, the entire army suddenly seems to charge, but then completely dissapear in a swarm of plasma... Reappearing, right at the front lines.

OOC: Remember those short range teleporters? Blink drives? Yeah. Just did my favorite tactic of all time; Blink charge.

Rapidly close distance, high shock damage, but probably not as useful against marines since they are stronger (individually) than my guys. still, provides a temporary advantage.

Oh, about that shuttle. Its landed.

IC: the small shuttle remains out of sight, hidden from the battle, as a lone figure opens up the cockpit and walks slowly towards the fight.

OOC: just so you know... that character not only doesnt have plot armor, but has a plot sword pointed directly at him. in other words, he actually HAS to die during this RP. However, I would prefer if you kill him in a 1v1 duel with one of your characters, if thats possible.

IC: The imperial fleet in the sky, just as its soldiers leave the vessels to go landside, is blasted in the side by a substantial eldar fleet with a few unrecognizable ships, that still look similar to chryllite ships but with a few differences, and with a strange logo placed on them.

it is rapidly obvious that there is some similarity to chryllite ships when seeker craft begin to swarm the dropships, shooting them down in midflight.

OOC: I told you you would have to deal with talik.

And, finally...

IC: the Eclipse's crystalline coating absorbs the attacks directed at it with seeming ease... And then reflects the laser's back into space. Most of these dont hit imperials ships, but a few do- causing only minor damage, since most of the laser had dissipated on the Eclipse, but still affecting them.

The Eclipse's cannons fire up, producing a large array of javelin-shaped projectiles, covered in a purplish fire, which is surrounded in blue light. The heavier projectiles hit battleships, and the largest cruisers, doing substantial damage, while the smaller projectiles hit the smaller cruisers and escorts, doing medium damage.

OOC: Now some explanation as to why the ship is so powerful. This ship is not actually designed to carry just 74 people... The ship is actually the entire Kizaurun fleet, designed to carry the entire armada, and to destroy enemy fleets by itself. So, yeah, its really powerful.

Sorry if this all seems overpowered, I just want to say... I am 'focusing' on the Kizaurun but please recall, there are very few of them. So I most likely wont be doing as much damage as it seems like I am, since I will in reality have only a very small ammount of people doing as much as im saying.

Also note, there are only 12 shadowscales. Most Kizaurun arent as powerful as the shadowscales, or really anywhere near so.
