Battle of Fort Astraeus - Pariah Nexus


Points: 1000.

Deployment and Mission: Dawn Of War / Chosen Battlefield.

Primary Objective: Priority Targets.

Detachment: Gladius Task Force.

Opponents Detachment: Awakened Dynasty.

The Battle of Fort Astraeus was an attack on the Imperial defences at Hell's Point by the Necron forces, in which they captured in within a day. Astraeus was on the right flank of the Imperial lines, near to where the Rift Wardens were camped. Imperial defences ringed the fort and had observation towers towards the south of the battlefield. The Imperial defences were based upon a series of small hastily constructed fortifications, which provided overlapping fields of heavy weapons fire. The battle was seen to be a supreme effort by the Necrons, who then pushed into the Imperial forces, forcing them back from Hell's Point.
