Warhammer III

"Before I left Holy Terra, I proposed to Lord Alkes that we should unite the three Inquisitions to form a new Legion of Astartes to resist the invasion of the Tyranids. Unfortunately, Lord Alkes rejected it."

Inquisitor Kriptman regretfully said that in his opinion, Alkes, as a representative of the Inquisition, should at least put forward this proposal at the Council of the High Lords of Terra. However, he directly rejected it and asked Kriptman to Terman was not allowed to mention the matter again.

The establishment of the Legiones Astartes was abolished after the Horus Heresy. In order to prevent the recurrence of large-scale rebellions, the Primarch Guilliman formulated the Codex Astartes and split the Legion into 1,000 men. war group.

After Guilliman emerged from the stasis field, although he had the idea of ​​​​rebuilding a legion to defend against the enemies of the Empire, he did not put it into practice.

On the one hand, it was his original order to split up the Legion. For this reason, he had conflicts with other Primarch brothers, and it was difficult to overturn the decision he had made. Moreover, many Chapters now strictly abide by the Codex Astartes. , these Chapters would not endorse the rebuilding of the Legiones Astartes.

On the other hand, because during these ten thousand years, there have always been Astartes Chapters that betrayed the Empire and joined Chaos or became pirate warlords. Even if Guilliman himself asked for the establishment of the Astartes Legion, the mortal rulers of the Empire would still have concerns and may even join forces to oppose the resolution.

"Your Majesty the God-Emperor, perhaps only when the Human Empire is facing a moment of life and death, or if another Primarch returns to the Empire and also supports the re-establishment of the Legion of Astartes, can this be possible."

Tai Yue responded casually. He did not expect Judge Kliptman to be so radical. It seemed that the threat from the Tyranids was already very serious, so he was allowed to directly touch this taboo topic.

"The Tyranid creatures are like a storm of despair that permeates the galaxy. It is a genocidal disaster for any intelligent race in the galaxy. If one day we can really rebuild the legion to jointly resist the hive fleet, I have already thought of the name of the legion. It will be called 'Stormwatch'!"

Judge Kliptman directly expressed his inner thoughts. He wanted to win the support of Taiyue. As a powerful psyker who defeated the demon primarch, the latter was the ninth brother Grand Master who owned the giant battleship Blackstone Fortress. Have a certain right to speak.

"What is the latest trend of the Tyranid fleet in the galaxy? Do we have a response plan?"

Taiyue suddenly changed the topic.

Upon hearing this, the biological sage Ellen stretched out a mechanical tentacle from his red robe and activated the projection in the conference room, projecting the Tyranids' route map for the invasion of the galaxy drawn by the Alien Tribunal into the venue.

His mechanical tentacles are riddled with scalpel blades, which are covered in disintegrating force fields and used to cut through the Tyranids' hard chitinous shells.

“The early Tyranid Hive Fleets that were discovered invaded the Imperial world from the edge of the galaxy inward. Most of the fleets were mainly concentrated on the eastern edge of the Extreme Star Territory, such as the large Hive Fleets Behemoth and Kraken, and the small Hive Fleets. Such as Gorgon, Jormungandr, Tiamat"

Sage Ellan used cloned vocal cords to explain, while using mechanical tentacles to point out the location of the corresponding Hive Fleet.

"The Leviathan Hive Fleet invaded the Imperial world from below the galactic plane. It attacked from two points in the Storm Star Domain that were spaced in the shape of a pair of closed jaws, cutting off the subspace routes and stars between the two points. language communication.”

The mechanical tentacles of Sage Erlan finally moved from the location of the Leviathan Hive Fleet to the system where the Tiamat Hive Fleet was stationed, and the introduction began.

Hive Fleet Tiamat is a small Tyranid fleet that the Ordo Xenos speculates entered the galaxy from the eastern part of the Ultramarine Segmentum 35 millennia ago.

This fleet is named after the Tiamat system where the Human Empire first encountered it. After the Tiamat Hive Fleet occupied the Imperial Jungle World of Ziapria in the system, it did not eat up the world. Instead, it destroyed the planet. A biological structure spanning the continent has been established on the planet, and the psychic energy fluctuations generated can directly affect psykers close to the galaxy.

Chiapria has now become the base of operations for Tiamat's hive fleet. The entire hive fleet is fully defending the planet and transporting biomass plundered from the surrounding world back to the planet to further improve the biological structure. The system has been declared an extreme quarantine zone by the Empire and completely abandoned.

Only the Astartes of the Deathwatch Chapter in the nearby Watch Fortress and the Inquisitor Kriptman from his long exile were aware of the possible threat posed by the massive biological constructs created by Tiamat's Hive Fleet.

"Many Inquisitors speculate that Tiamat's psychic beacon is a beacon that guides the Tyranids into the galaxy. Judging from Leviathan's special method of entering the galaxy, I suspect that the role of the psychic beacon may be more than that. The entire psychic The lighthouse probably provided the Hive Mind with the space-time structure of the entire galaxy, allowing the Leviathan Hive to successfully invade from below the Milky Way plane, bypassing the Empire’s defense circle and entering the Empire’s hinterland.”

Judge Kliptman finally revealed his plan of action:

"This time we will go to the quarantine zone to destroy the Tiamat hive fleet!"

(Spoiler in advance: The name of the legion that will later resist the Tyranid Hive Fleet from entering Holy Terra is ‘Storm Watch’. Please vote for me and recommend it!)
