The war to beat back the traitorous legions was still young, and still the fledgling Blood Ravens were already coming to realize that this would not be a swift war, nor would it be one easily won. More immediately, it seemed they would make an early exit from the galactic battlefield, an exit forced by total annihilation.

The war had brought them to Outpost MCVI, a planet of rather meager significance, so much so that it was referred to generally as just Outpost 11 o’6 orbiting a star system which was equally as bureaucratically named.

Normally a search and rescue base for nearby sector space, a place to rest and repair, it was suddenly the scene of a devastating rolling conflict between brothers turned blood enemies.
