The Tarantis Star

 

Abaddon, like his rival Ravensburg, was loath to contemplate defeat or to give up what he had won. With 2, possibly 3, Blackstone Fortresses under his command, it was the Despoiler who still presented the greatest threat to the Gothic Sector. Just how much of a threat was not realised until the attack on the Tarantis System. Located on the edge of the Gothic Sector, it was a common gathering ground for starships entering or leaving the region from the Tamahl Sector, and so it was there that the Despoiler determined that he would stem the flow of Imperial reinforcements from entering the sector.

A convoy run today, if the blackstone exits by the enemy board edge chaos wins

The blackstone fortress is a tough nut to crack, armed with fearsome warp cannons
The imperials open long range fire with innacurate nova cannon shots and far more effective macrocannon broadsides

Bombing runs are also made against the battlestation
The Imperial navy closes on the gargantuan construct, opening up with all the guns
Finally it's a bullseye from the Hammer of Purity nova that blows open the blackstone
A lone chaos cruiser is also savaged by massed broadsides
