On the "dead" forge world, the recon teams of the Azure legion advanced fast and with caution as with every planet in the Eye of Terror, those silent are the worst. The landing zone were "quite" defensible as the main force of the Azure Legion, 2400 strong guardsmen started marching outward towards the supposed "entrances" to the catacombs below to their objectives. Alpha Company led by Cpt Han flanked the main force as they marched onwards. As CCM with Bravo Company following behind the main force.

In orbit, the Hand of Judgement in battlestations keep their eyes peeled for any enemy movements, ready to shoot at moment notice.

An hour passed before several recon teams reported back that they had found several "entrances" to catacombs below. The main force gathered at the first "entrance"..................

Major: "Colonel Commisar, we have found these so called entrances. Shall we wait for the other Imperial Guard Regiments ??"

CCM: "No, we shan't wait one bit. We will lose the initatives and time is of the essence."

After dismissing the Major, Colonel Commissar Markus stood infront of the Azure Legion Mainforce and spoke to them:

"Men, with every second wasted waiting about on this Emperor Damned Forsaken Planet, we are slowly condenmded to death by the very foul air of this Eye of Terror !"

"We shall not wait for those pussy ass Cadians who think themselves strong, we will marched to our objectives below and retrived it, SO that WE can return to the LIGHT OF THE EMPEROR !!!!"

"NOW, who's with ME to descend BELOW and retrive OUR objectives."

Mainforce: "Hoo-ahh !!!"

Major: "Let's get this done once and for all."

CCM: "Very well Major, you shall form the vanguard. Take a 800 men with you. The rest of you spilt into 200 men per company and stay within 10 metres of vox range. We Shall shows those Cadians what a Imperial Guardsmen truly is."

Azure Legion: "YAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"

CCM: "Cpt Kin, you are to hold this entrance point with 600 men. Set up a defensive perimeter around the entrance. Cpt Han, support Cpt Kin with Alpha Company."

Cpt Kin & Cpt Han: "Yes, sir!!!"

And so the Azure Legion recon teams rejoined the main force and entered the Catacombs below. Major forming the vanguard of 800 men, followed by the 200 men strong companies. The last to enter the catacombs was CCM followed by Bravo Company.
