11 June 2009:  Another day, another victory for our glorious Emperor!  In a bloody battle against the unrighteous Drache-Uten Eldar, 3^rd Company, 2^nd Battalion ground the enemy to pulp, though it cost our side the lives of Captain Rebo, Lieutenant Peterson, and most of Peterson's 2^nd Platoon, with just 5 men surviving, besides the tank crews.  The wicked Eldar deployed a despicable unit of “Howling Banshees,” who flitted about the field, screaming through some sort of amplifiers, which caused many a brave man's ears to bleed, and they mercilessly hacked men apart with swords!  What base and cowardly tactics!  Nevertheless, two of our mighty Leman Russ Battle Tanks and our Lascannon Heavy Weapons Squad proved their worth by pummeling the 3 Eldar tanks into oblivion, as well as slaughtering 9 Eldar Jet bikes.  In desperation, 1 Eldar tank attempted to ram 1 of our venerable Leman Russ Tanks, but it simply bounced harmlessly aside and was blasted into submission by the righteous fury of our tanks' heavy guns.  We captured this Eldar tank, and its deranged pilot, and have handed these spoils over to the Ordo Xenos branch of the Inquisition for study.  “The Emperor Sends Us Forth”
