Attention Imperial Command: My name is Elroy Dansky, janitorial serf assigned to Space Port Carnus Octavian. The Orks have overrun our facility. All the Imperial Guardsmen defending this territory are either fled or slain. Of the civilian laborers, I am the only survivor. The Orks have eaten everyone else. The Ork Warboss has kept me alive to inform you of this and all of his future conquests.
The Orks caught us off guard with their initial attack. They assaulted our lines with their helicopter-like contraptions. One of our command units was immediately forced to withdraw from the battle. In response, the guardsmen directed their heavy weapons at the oncoming Ork transport vehicles. First, we managed to destroy one of their lightly armoured vehicles and the squad of orks it was carrying. Then one of the Leman Russ tanks shot its demolisher cannon at an Ork Battlewagon. The shell made a direct hit destroying the Xenos tank in a spectacular explosion. For a brief moment morale among the guardsmen was high, that was until they heard a roar of overwhelming fury from across the battlefield. Our hearts sank as as we saw the Warboss and his personal guard of Nobz emerging from the flaming wreckage unscathed. They charged right into our defensive forces, tearing apart any tanks or guardsmen in their path. It was only a matter of time until the Space Port was in their control.
May the Emperor forgive me for serving as the Orks' messenger - I am only a coward. The Warboss wanted me to tell you that his name is Gorgog Badzagga the Terror of Taros and the Overfiend of Ovaris. His tribe calls themselves the "World Chompas."
