The moment that UZ1 had was a hard one. Her decision was one that she knew would be made and had already made a decision upon even before she touched the planet. It did not take away weight from the decision but it did allow her to process it with ease.
+RAISE YOUR WEAPONS!+ The Tech Priest declared as she too raised a fist in the declaration of power, +Prepare Overwatch. Set to Defend. Initiate Volley Fire.+
These binaric words, while as fast as light, could only be created as fast as the Tech Priest could think and processed as fast as the Skitarii could do so. These delays in time allowed the Orks to reach the five meter mark before them.
While this moment was not optimal UZ1 was not going to let her soldiers die without retaliation.
+FIRE!+ The hand of the adept came crashing down as bullets rang into the Orks with a brutal stabbing.
She watched as so many of the shots went above or below the Orks as the Skitarii did not really have a chance to aim. However the sheer volume between the Skitarii and the Orks was filled with so much gun fire that the Orks were inevitably hit..
As always the orks were shown to be the toughest of their lot as the Greenskin came through the cloud of bullets. Some however had their skulls caved in or their necks pierced as the strikes went clean through their unarmored skin.
There were ultimately three of the xenos who made it to the back line and began chopping into the flesh of mankind. UZ1 felt her anger surge as a butcher’s knife dug into the shoulder of one Skitarii while another slammed his combat knife into another’s stomach.
UZ1’s death counter was growing as she gave the command for the Skitarii to stand slamming the butts of their rifles into the Xenos. The sound of wood hitting the bones and jaws of the surviving Orks as the three were quickly buried in an avalanche of Skitarii. For all she could do, UZ1 edited several of their strikes to make sure they dug their hands and rifles into the necks of the Orks.
Three separate shots of a Galvanic Rifle went off as the Skitarii moved themselves away from the targets. UZ1 noting that the Skitarii had indeed done a double tap to make sure the foul Greenskin were dead.
Out of her fifteen Skitarii Rangers she had lost six of them. Taking a moment she looked upon her others who were giving out some form of warriness and pain.
