• Ghouls Gone Wild Festival (Necromundus)

The sappers finish disabling all the ships on the ground and then scamper off toward the town proper while the fighters zoom overhead, laying waste to buildings in town. Great mushroom clouds of fire and smoke roil skyward as the onslaught continues. The six warships, meanwhile, slow to a stop and hover above the beach, about 100 feet in the air. The carrier bellies slide open again. Infantry bots start spilling out.

"Ah hell," sighs Norton almost peacefully as he lets his legs go out from under him. He lands on his belly with a crash. He rolls to his side to bring the rifle out from under him, and he starts crawling towards cover, wishing himself deeper in the sand as he drags himself along. "They're going to pin us down till their air buddies finish wrecking the town. Then, we're all going to die. So what we're going to do is. Shoot them and, hopefully, get to the science complex where we can die in the shade. Yeah? Good plan. I thought so." He starts shooting, explaining things probably just to give his mouth something to do, not that the soldiers need to hear it, "Work with a buddy. One man shoot, the other man move. If it becomes painfully obvious we can't cut through these 'bot jokers to get to our shady dying spot, well, we'll just die in the sun."
