Operation Annihilation: The Ending - Vigilus Wastelands


Points: 2000.

Deployment and Mission: Hammer and Anvil / Swift Action.

Primary Objective: Terraform.

Detachment: Anvil Siege Force.

Opponents Detachment: War Horde.

After months of brutal fighting, the greenskins launched a counter-offensive against the Imperial forces assaulting the scrap cities and looking to regain territories seized during the fighting. The initial attack was so great that it forced the Astra Militarum to withdraw almost entirely. Then, they turned their attention to the astartes chapters remaining. A fierce battle for the outer scrap cities lasted almost a month, finally ending with am Ok victory.

Finally, the space marine chapters suffered severe casualties and Imperial command ordered an immediate withdrawal. Operation Annhilation had achieved some successes but had proved far too costly in manpower and equipment. For the time being, command would leave the scrap cities to the geenskins and seek to stymy their assaults elsewhere.
