Fall of Nova Syracusa

After breaking through the traitor defences at Forgeside princeps Pentecost led his strike group into the hive spire itself, laying siege to Nova Syracusa, a sortie from the city secured the southern bastion walls against the loyalist attack, but ignoring the diversion, Legio Metalica concentrated on the hive proper, bringing the traitors to battle in its labyrinthine depths.
From: De Bello Titanico
 We rolled the diagonal deployment map, the Metalica objective was to kill enemy engines, while Mortis had to hunt down Imperius Galgamech
 Using the boosted speed of their legio the engines of Pentecost move onto the ofensive
 The knights of Devine spread out under volcano fire
 Concentrated fire from Calvaria blew up the loyalist knights
 While the traitors were also eradicated by Imperius Damnatio
 Using movement orders Bodil sprints in the left
 Both sides are evenly matched in the center but the Loyalists use the tested tactic of concentrating fire to strip the shields of two warlords
 Imperius Galgamech lost its shield, but they came back online thanks to a stratagem
 Badly damaged, Calvaria limps through the skyscrapers
 Galgamech hides from the advancing Bodil
 Recieving some shots from Abolitorus
 Calvaria's march comes to an end before the guns of Imperius Tenebrus that savage its torso, pushing it to the ground; two kills in two games, Pentecost sure is  a legend in his time!
 Imperius Damnatio, not to be overshadowed, finishes off Abolitorus with the carapace guns, its princeps has also racked two kills in two games, plus some knights too
Before such devastating losses Mortis retreats from the city, falling back into the southern districts
Metalica bags the third hive city and some honour
 My latest terrain
Usable for Necromunda too!
