Gorro
3rd Person POV:Before the windows of the Bucephelus was a entire world made of rusted metal. This was the scrap planet of Gorro, Captial planet of a huge Ork Empire. Currently a thousand Ships of the 1st, 2nd Expeditionary fleets and many other Expeditionary fleets were locked in battle against Ork Kroozers, and other Ork escort junk ships.
As the Emepror quietly analyzed the planet the door to his room opened up and in walked his son Silver Nightshade in his personal artificer power armor. The Armor was styled after Greek armor with the leather straps. It was midnight blue with the II legions logo(the Roman Numeral II behind a cresent moon.) in silver on the left shoulder and Primordias constellations all over the armor.
"Father, you have summoned me and my son's here and now I ask what's your plan?" Silver asked his father.
"Once we gain space superiority, me, you, and a small strike force of my custodians and your elite Justicar bodyguards will teleport into the subterranean tunnel network deep within the strata of the planet while the bulk of our forces assault the planet. Resistance is expected to be heavy." The Emperor explained.
"What if our men get overrun by these Orks?" Silver asked.
"Then we must act fast. The fate of the Imperium rests on this operation." The Emperor said solemnly.
"Then I'll gather my men and meet you in the hanger in 20 minutes." Silver said before leaving the room to gather his bodyguards.
With his conversation done the Emperor turned back to the space battle just in time to see a Kill-Kroozer explode by the concentrated lance fire of 4 Lunar-class cruisers. He watched as his sons personal ship the 24km Gloriana Class Battleship Primordia's Glory, Modeled after the Retribution class battleship just without the golden statue, has multiple flight hangers in the middle of the ship, and a massive nova cannon on the Prow, fight off 2 Ork Kill Kroozer and there escorts.
Nodding to himself after seeing that the space above Gorro was secured from the Orks he turned to the door to his room after contacting his commanders.
"Commanders were starting the assault. Begin by sending out Marauder bombers to soften up our troops landing zones. Once done set up Artillery cannons to contanslty bombard the Orks. You need to occupy the Orks for as long as you can." The emepeor ordered.
"It will be done my Lord." The 1st legion officer replied.
Nodding to himself the Emperor exited his room two custodians falling in step behind him.
Entering the giant hanger of the Bucephelus the Emperor saw his son surrounded by 10 of his elite Justicar honor guards. The Justicars formed Silver's elite honor guard. Clad in there midnight blue and silver Cataphractii Terminator Armour. The signal of the second proudly on display. Silver was able to equip his bodyguards with the newly created terminator armor by exchanging a cache of STC's(Standard Template Construct) based around interstellar communications that don't require the warp. The deal was he would give it to them and any other STC cache of they agreed to supply his legion with the newest gear and to support him if he called upon there aid. They agreed quickly.
