[b]Cremutus and Chelkar [/b]

Striding through the routes to the heaviest fighting were easy to find marked by the throngs of swarming cultists and heretic soldiers surging forward to meet the enemy and bring glory to themselves and their god. Naturally the largest and most key battlegrounds for the masses were areas in which large numbers could come to bear with each other. primary passages turned into killing grounds as both sides rushed to defend or take them from each other key intersections rapidly being choked with bodies. The largest battleground which had managed to pull hundreds from both sides was where two major cargo holds had met and torn open almost all passages and rooms near them. This resulted in an open killing field surrounded by a menagerie of destruction.

Standing high above the fools who rushed straight into the jaws of death Chelkar could see the titan of war enter the battlefield from the rear of the hold just as the forces of chaos launched another assault on the Imperium forces on the other side of the hold. Naval ratings and armsmen let loose with everything at their disposal cut down those who rushed upon them but took fierce losses of their own as those who thought to do so took cover near bodies or rubble and fired on the defending Imperial forces. Even from where they were, Chelkar nearly 100 meters away and Cremutus half again that much could tell the assault was doomed to fail as it was now and would take the intervention of the chaos gods themselves or at the very least one of their champions to turn the tide here. 

At the center of the Imperial defence was a ruined arvus lighter manned by at least a platoon of armsmen with lsrifles, autoguns, and shotguns with a single heavy stubber inflicting grievous losses on the assaulting forces. This hard point must be broke for the forces of Chaos to advance and while many heretical soldiers recognize this the armsmen are too well dug in for them to be easily displaced and the attacks on them directly only cause the body count about the position to rise.
