It is the 41st Millenium, and there is only war!
The planet Corolis IV is a temperate world on the Western Edge of the Damocles Gulf. A bountiful planet discovered centuries ago by the Imperium, it was finally settled by a corps of Imperial Guard veterans of the First Tyrranic War. Its atmosphere is breathable, its temperature is cool, and its mineral wealth is abundant. For generations it has tithed agriculture and weapons to the Imperium of Man. But nothing lasts forever...
Rogue Traders stopping by the planet have been leaving behind strange writings in the common language, speaking of a "Greater Good" being spread by a nearby Xenos Empire, The Tau. Trading goods from other nearby planets, normally common in the markets, have suddenly stopped coming. And the planetary Governor, Orion Sentinel, has called a draft for new Planetary Defense Force Regiments to defend Corolis against the alien threat.
You have answered the call, along with your compatriots, and have been selected to fight in the most elite and beloved of the Emperor's mighty war machines: The Leman Russ Main Battle Tank.
----------------------------------------------------
This will be a military RP with an emphasis more on player interaction than the initial combat. If you know anything about the 40K background, you will know what it's like to pit an Imperial Tank against a Tau Hammerhead. If you don't know about 40K but like the idea of defending your home against an alien threat, imagine pitting a WW2 Soviet T-34 and conscripts against a hovertank firing a railgun, backed up by some basic Gundam Mobile Suits.
Against these odds, and fighting for a clearly corrupt government that cares nothing for you, against an advanced Xenos empire that claims to value every soldier under their command, do you continue to fight for the Imperium of Mankind, switch sides to join the warriors of The Greater Good, or pursue your own goals?
