In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, there is only war. You are part of the Imperial Guard, the hammer of the Imperium. A guardsman's life is to die, and your superiors have sent you to die in /bant/anus. This planet can be described as the most Emperor-forsaken shithole in the galaxy.
An Ork incursion has forced the local Planetary Defence Force to call for assistance from the Imperial Guard. Your platoon is one of many ordered to take a trench and hold the line. Fortunately, holding the line is what the Imperial Guard do best; the Commissar with his bolt pistol trained at the back of your heads will ensure that...
A far greater threat looms in orbit, however. A long-forgotten Xenos race with advanced weaponry also seeks to claim the /bant/anus as their own. What could they possibly want? Find out in this episode of Arume Survival: Only War Edition!
Rolling will now be done on our Discord, which can be found here:
https://discord dot gg/p75McE
If you are not in the discord, then the GM will roll in your stead. This is to prevent people using the catalog to cheat.
Depending on the difficulty of the roll, you will be required to get a number under 50. Dubs will count as an automatic success. You can reroll a failed test twice per session, but feats of heroism, bravery and good RP may increase that cap. If you die, you must wait until next thread, so don't act rashly.
Ready? Let's go

https://archive.nyafuu.org/bant/thread/1587724/#q1587724 In the last episode, the Fuck Ups went back to their trench, which is now in ruins. Noobsiuss revealed the reality of the situation to Loli Commissar, who claimed that she was actually their former Commissar before the warp impostor got sucked into the warp (it's complicated, I know.) Noobsius then proceeded to make her cry (what a dick!) and she ran off into a booby-trapped forest.
The Commissar was saved by a passing squad of very green Space Marines, and helped the Fuck Ups fend off a horde of nurglings by doing absolutely nothing. Hammond, in a fit of rage, betrayed Xenosbane by stabbing him with a chainsword. Noobsiuss used this chaos to denounce the Imperium and attempt to create his own, lesser imperium. The Astartes grabbed the remaining loyalists and dashed towards their encampment with utmost haste. Two weeks have passed since then...

You arrive at a bar, summoned by Battle Brother Bushwakka, to collect your Commissar. If the five stages of grief are to be referenced, she's been in depression for over two weeks. "Yeah, yer Commissar git 'as been takin' up dat bar stool fer... wun... too... four... lots uv days. Whenever wun uv da boys tries to remove 'er, she just punches dere teef out and uses it to pay da bar tab," he states, showing tons of other, smaller green space marines with broken teeth.

She lifts her head up, revealing that her face is caked with crumbs, most likely from the half-eaten meat pie that is next to her. "Mrhphr," she says.

>>1741718 's not like there's much to do. *hic* A Commissar leads guardsmen, not Space Marines. Only time that a Commissar's ever lead Space Marines is another one of Raege's student, but that was a one-off case...>>1741731 Hammond sees no Arume settlements, and the only thing that could possibly serve as a white flag is his guard-issue briefs... if he's okay with having a brown streak down his "white" flag. >>1741737 Noobsiuss tries to vox the Space Marines, and managed to successfully contact a very grumpy one."Wut do ya zoggin' want, ya git?"
>>1741812 Xenosbane wakes up in what seems to be a field hospital, with an intimidating apothecary towering over him, holding a needle.
"It's gonna 'urt a lot, but you'll be bettah, you'll see," he says, giggling madly. "The name's Bonefixa, by the way."
>>1741788 Halton also finds himself in the field hospital, with many chapter serfs tending to him and definitely not rooting through his pockets.
Lieutenant Hammond
>>1741879 >Look for more arume settlements >Don't use muh pants as a flag Halton
>>1741879 >Try to Kill myself Noobsiuss
>>1741879 "yes, this is noobsiuss... i need some bombs, more specifically c4 type bombs. where can i get them? do you do delivery?"
Xenosbane
>>1741879 "Where the fuck am I, what are you doing with that needle, and are you loyal to the emperor or not?"
>get up and walk to the door Pvt.Jim
>>1741879 "Well....a few of us are still guardsmen including myself.Though it may be little you can still lead that small group and bring us to victory."
Private Dan

>>1741917 Bonefixa sinks the needle into Xenosbane's arm, injecting a noxious fluid. Xenosbane feels immense pain, but is able to fight through it, getting up.
"Dis is da best batch uv fightin' juice that I've made in a while! Go and see the rest uv yer boyz, and see me if you feel funny in da morning!"
Xenosbane walks out of the field hospital and out into the encampment.
>>1741905 The chapter serfs start yelling. "Boss! Boss! Da git iz tryin' da off imself!"
The apothecary swats them aside and injects Halton with a dose of noxious fluid. (Roll for willpower.)
>>1741911 "Zog off, we'z not a delivery service," the voice roars.
>>1741894 Hammond looks for Arume settlements, but sees none.>>1741927 The Commissar sighs and slumps back in her chair."Guardsman, the strength of the Imperial Guard is in numbers. The best thing to do is let the Astartes do their part for the Imperium, for we will hardly make a difference. In fact, we will probably end up getting in their way."
>>1742007 One of the Space Marines with broken teeth pipes up. "We'z gonna krump em later, but you can't blame everything on dem Arume gits."
>>1742045 (A melee specialist, then?)
Steelhead comes across the Space Marine's encampment, laspistol and chainsword in hand.
(Also, only techpriests come from mars.)

>>1742176 "We'z not a charity; you'z gonna 'ave to pay fer what you get."
>>1742183 Hammond manages to see an Arume encampment off in the distance as night falls.
>>1742185 The Commissar stares into the tankard with a blank expression. >>1742219 Jim says his farewell, and Dan leaves with a snide remark. As they leave, they can hear the Commissar sobbing, followed by a loud thud and another Astartes shouting.
"My teef! She punched out me zoggin' teef!"
>>1742280 Steelhead walks into the encampment and sees the pub. The bartender ushers him inside.
"Here, take some squig pie and a tankard of beer on da 'ouse! If you can just get dat git out of 'ere, I'll give you as much as you want fer an 'ole year!"
Lieutenant Hammond

>>1742376 Hammond throws a sheet of paper up and it fails to clear the outer walls. Luckily, a gust of wind picks it up and the note makes it over the wall.
>>1742391 Noobsiuss and Hammond await a response.
>>1742389 >>1742433 Jim and Dan walk back into the pub. Jim slaps the Commissar out of her seat, spilling her drink and toppling her over like a sack of tubers.
"Hello again, guardsman," she says with a glazed over look in her eyes.
>>1742452 Xenosbane walks out into the encampment and is called over by a techmarine.
"Oi! Get over 'ere, ya grot! I'z made sum modificayshuns to yer choppa. I also made a six-shoota for you at use. On me!"
(Six-shoota will do more damage on hit. Chainsword will now do more damage with each consecutive successful hit in an encounter.)
>>1742528 She raises her arms, still on the ground and clearly drunk.
"Drag me."
Lieutenant Hammond

>>1742619 Noobsiuss plants explosives in a ten metre radius around themselves. They are hurriedly placed, and may detonate on impact with a projectile.
>>1742593 A small patrol of Arume come outside, armed to the teeth. They raise their weapons at you and bark out an order.
"State your business, human!"
>>1742666 >>1742609 >>1742675 Jim, Dan and Steelhead drag the Commissar out towards a trough of water. You can hear the pub's patrons cheering their gratitude as you walk through the door. Jim grabs her collar and raises her up to try and talk sense into her.
"Dear god, woman, how long do you intend on acting like this!" He shouts.
The Commissar says nothing as she raises her hands to her mouth and regurgitates a foul-smelling liquid with chunks of mushroom, soiling both of their uniforms.
>>1742675 >>1742798 You see the encampment, dimly lit by haphazardly placed torches. Large, humanoid behemoths lumber around in thick armour, yelling at each other about an upcoming fight. A trio of guardsmen surround a young, female commissar as she throws up the contents of her stomach onto the packed dirt. Suddenly, yellow hovercraft appears over the encampment, catching the attention of everyone inside.
"This is Shas'O R'ala of Tau. I am here to offer you assistance in dealing with the dangerous race known as the Arume. We must work together to repel them for the Greater Good."
Demented Doug

>>1743018 >>1743028 The patrol keeps their weapons raised, but seem to be listening.
"Very well, human, We will allow you to be of use to us. Search them!"
>>1742989 >>1743003 >>1743010 >>1743090 The speaker continues his spiel as Dan and Jim attempt to sober the Commissar up. Dan dumps the trough onto the Commissar, clearing off most of the puke and sobering her up enough to stand. He attempts to grab her bolt pistol, but his hand is swatted away.
"We have attempted to welcome them into the Tau Empire, as they somewhat resemble you Gue'la, but they have stolen our technology and embarked on a mission to recover an ancient weapon rumoured to have been buried here. I fear consequences of cataclysmic proportions if this weapon were to be unearthed. So I ask you, once again, to fight together for the Greater Good."
Lieutenant Hammond
>>1743169 "Lead me to your chief"

"We will take you to the holding cells until we can determine your allegiances."
>>1743230 (He's a traitor, Dan. And also he's not in the Space Marine encampment He's consorting with the Arume.)
>>1743185 >>1743199 >>1743228 >>1743248 "If we are to be allied, then I shall address you, personally!"
A white shape jumps out from the craft, landing in the middle of the encampment. The front opens up, revealing a blue humanoid with a slit on their forehead.
"Shas'O R'ala, at your service."
With the traitorous guardsmen consorting with the Arume, yet another Xenos race enters the fray with vital information about the motive behind the invasion. Will the Tau truly help the remaining loyalists, or do they only serve their "Greater Good"? Regardless of allegiances, it's a race to the super weapon buried within /Bant/anus' crust. What will become of our heroes? Find out next time, on Arume Survival: Only War Edition!
