TalOS watched as in its death throws the most far off fortress destroyed the Mitu Cruiser that had parked near it.
The plan had occurred exactly how the Primarch desired it to go. The Mitu would surely have stayed back until the fortifications began firing at them from afar. Now forced closer the Orks had taken notice of their existance and was ramming themsleves into both the Mitu and Lucius. The Mitu, not wanting their hated enemy to gain any ground, has began assaulting the forward fortress of the Mechanicum with aggression.
A Magos’s voice came into the ears of TalOS, +Our Control of Forward Fortifications rated at 28%. The Xenos cannot properly take the fortifications from one another as all are under equal seige.+
TalOS nodded as he received the information, +Then they have done well. We shall remember all the Skitarii, Tech Priests, and Menials that gave their lives for this success.+
+Orkish forces are currently attacking the satellite fortifications. They will attempt to invade Lucius directly within 10 minutes.+ Another Magos sounded off.
+And of the Mitu?+
+They are holding back to secure positions. Estimates dictate they did not expect such large forces on both sides and is holding back for either reinforcements or situational change.+
+Interesting.+
As TalOS thought to himself he felt a slight tug at his robes, +Could they… know something we don’t?+
+That is very possible Vera…+ TalOS told her as he got an idea, +Using the Psi Sensors of the Blackstone Fortress do we detect any other places of activity? Such as dangerous Warp Points that could be to the Ork’s advantage?+
There was serval seconds of buzzing before the Magos spoke, +Spikes of activity happening in the galactic North. Like incoming ships.+
So a flank attempt? Was this an attempt by the Mitu or the Orks? Could they take advantage of the situation before their arrival?
>Engage the incoming forces
>Send a flanking fleet to attack the inactive mitu fleet
>Focus energy into killing all those damn Orks.
