Battle of Saint's Landing - Grendal

 


Points: 1000.

Mission: Desperate Raid.

Secondary Objectives: Abhor The Witch, No Prisoners, and Raise The Banners High.

Opponent's Secondary Objectives: Behind Enemy Lines, Teleport Assault and Warp Ritual.


The battle of Saint's Landing was an orbital landing made at the Ascension Hive's space port. It was part of the Rift Warden's attempt to break the Grey Knight's defiance. The landing, which commenced as night fell across the hive, was intended to support the space marine detachments fighting the Grey Knights throughout the hive.

Although initially successful, against light opposition, the landing was mismanaged from the outset and quickly reached the stalemate conditions that prevailed between the fighting forces in the hive. A week after the landing, the Rift Wardens were still contained within the space port while their battle brothers attempted to fight through to join them.
