4 and 10 June 2011: The Scelus Warp Storms are lifted

4 and 10 June 2011:  Wonderful news!  The Warp Storms around Planet Scelus have abated and the Uradeln 21st Regiment, as well as allied Imperial Guard regiments and Space Marines, are alive and well.  Piratical Eldar raiders must have been waiting for the end of the Warp Storms around Planet Scelus because as soon as they lifted the foul Xenos struck.  The raiders were checked by the stalwart men of Alpha Company, 3rd Battalion, under Captain Kipton Burba.  Their flimsy vehicles, while fast, were cut apart like paper Mache by our disciplined weapons fire.  As a result, they could not hit 1st Platoon (HUG), under Lieutenant Stiner, in sufficient numbers and we ground them down.  The men were inspired by the personal example of the resolute Commissar Medovich and fought heroically even though they sustained heavy casualties.  1st Platoon, A Co, 3rd Battalion has been awarded the Valour Medal 3rd Class as a Unit Award. 
On the 10th the Xenos raiders struck again, this time in conjunction with the Black Legion, and we won a glorious victory over the enemies of Mankind!  Whether or not these two enemies of the Imperium were working together or if they just happened to both be going after the same target is uncertain.  Nevertheless, the brave Uradelns of 1st Platoon, Alpha Company, 1st Battalion, under Lieutenant Werdehausen, who were on a patrol, dealt heavy casualties to the enemy, particularly to the Eldar skimmers.  Our allies, Space Marines in grey livery from an unknown chapter, were able to drive the Black Legion Chaos Space Marines away from a critical bridge after the brave sacrifice of Commissar Fortier (Valour Medal 3rd Class, Posthumous) and 1st Platoon (HUG), who held them off long enough for the Terminators to arrive from orbit.
