22 January 2011:  Alpha Company, 1^st Battalion under Captain Robinette(KIA) have won a glorious victory over the Craft-world Eldar!  We are not sure why they have come to Scelus, but then, no one ever really knows why the Eldar do what they do, maybe not even the Eldar themselves!  Our Space Marine allies suffered heavy casualties but they did their job by distracting the enemy while we mighty Uradelns annihilated the foe.  3^rd Platoon(HUG) under Lieutenant Garrett Sharpe(KIA) suffered heavy casualties from the foul warp powers of the xenos filth, but they stood their ground, inspired by Commissar Fortier.  Their glorious stand protected the armor and artillery support, which devastated the enemy.  Our close air support was quick to respond, knocking out Eldar armor and dropping melta-toting veterans into the fray.  These veterans were assaulted by Dire Avengers and first our brave lads held their own against the attackers, then gained the upper hand, causing the few surviving Eldar to show their true colors and flee like the cowards they are!  When the enemy fled the field, we captured an immobilized Eldar tank and the crew inside, who have been handed over to the Ordo Xenos of the Holy Inquisition.  “The blaze of a lasgun shall light your way in dark times.”
