Quoted By:
TalOS finished the work on both the Omnissian Axe and the Eradication Ray a minute after they left the shuttle bay. He picked himself off the chair that was holding him in and stood in the middle of the craft with all eyes upon him.
+Our mission is the elimination of the Enemy’s newest asset, which shall be referred to as X-5 for the purposes of communication. It has become obvious to my observations that the enemy ship is reinforced with improved shielding generation and thus has become impervious to our current style of combat. Because of this I have devised that the Xenos Craft is in fact their flagship.+
The Acillian all around the room sat and stared at TalOS as he made these declarations. There was no reason to question the judgment of the Arch Dominus and their own Father when it came to these vital moments of war.
+As such I have decided that it is time for us to stage an assault upon the enemy craft. When the shields are down we will board the enemy craft and destroy it from the inside. While we know much about the enemy, we do not know if they are employing other horrors from beyond the cosmos or knowledge of their standard soldiery. Thus I demand you all are prepared.+
There was another moment of silence.
+My Sons, in this moment we are risking a great deal of assets. If we are successful, however, we will force a route among the enemy and allow the remaining forces to slaughter the enemy. You were all chosen by AL4N to be the best the Acillians have to offer. Do not disappoint your brother. DEUS MECHANICUS!+

The call out roared within the shuttle and shook the souls of all who were aboard. Each and every Acillian was excited for the coming battle. They will be the first in what will be rare instances of following their father into battle on foot.
They all waited for minutes after those words. However instead of silence each of the Acillian bent down and began prayer in their own little way towards the Machine God.
They prayed to honor the Machine Spirits. They prayed for a good battle. And they prayed to the Machine God asking that they are not found wanting before their Father’s own eyes.
