Warhammer, Rogue Trader Notes

Soon, the cultists amassed [-] scum, and a riot ensued. They raided the King of Portal's armory, got enough weapons and equipment, and started smashing everything they could see. , any force.

Sheila Amick, the king of the port of arrival, was dragged out and beaten to death by the cultists during the riots. His body was torn up and hung on their different symbols.

When the only remaining order in the port of arrival was lost, it quickly became a carnival for the villains, and those non-cult thugs also began to take advantage of the chaos to attack other people and plunder any property they could collect.The complex situation of more than 100 forces in the port of arrival undoubtedly exacerbated this turmoil, and they began to take advantage of this time to resolve their grievances and hatreds for many years.

But the anger of these people is not comparable to that of a single person.

-

"Bah!"

"Emperor's lungs, these bastards are damned!"

Caligos smashed the marble table in front of him into two pieces with one punch. This riot undoubtedly gave a loud slap to the rogue traders present.

The first stop of the Faceless Lord when he entered the expansion area was to smash the port of arrival, killing hundreds of people here. Caligos even dispatched the dynasty fleet to protect the port of arrival. The riots really raised Caligos' blood pressure, and now he thought of using a macro cannon to tell the group of people who had the final say on the port of arrival.

"No way, these people undoubtedly care about eating but not fighting." Aspis Kulda did not mock Caligos at this time, everyone is a rogue, some things they compete with each other, some things they must unite unanimous.

The Rogue Traders will not really rule the Port of Arrival, but they will not disregard the safety of the Port of Arrival. The importance of the Port of Arrival to all Rogue Traders is self-evident, and they will never allow the Port of Arrival to fall into the hands of followers of Chaos .

"The top priority right now is to quickly suppress the rebellion. Although the main forces in the port of residence will not suffer setbacks because of this, it is still an important port. It's not nice to talk about such a big incident." Offee urged the rogue traders present as soon as possible Organize a team to carry out anti-insurgency work, otherwise things will get worse and worse. I haven't met the Lord of the Face yet.

"On behalf of the main forces in the port of arrival, I welcome the Rogue Traders team to carry out counter-insurgency work." Varadam participated in this meeting as a representative of the main forces, "But whether it is the Church of Kasparica, the Black Brothers Whether it is a society or other forces, they all hope that the policy of "tolerance" in the port of arrival will not be changed."

Caligos snorted, indicating that he knew what the other party meant.

There are many meanings to this tolerance, but most of these words to the Rogue Traders are to make them restrain themselves a little in their counter-insurgency operations, and not take this opportunity to retaliate.

"Leave the counter-insurgency to me and Siegel." Aspic suggested aloud, and she glanced at the other men present with mocking and provocative contempt.

"Kurda, what do you mean?" Caligos was irritated by Aspis's eyes, "Anyone can do counter-insurgency work."

"Anyone can do it. The Emperor's Oath launched a few rounds of volleys and landed at the port, and the group of moths has been hidden. In my opinion, since it broke out this time, it should be cleaned up." .”

"Even if it's street fighting, the Winterfin Dynasty is not necessarily inferior to the sailors of the Kurda family, and the sailors of the Bastille family are also not bad."

"Come on, Caligos, you don't know the virtues of your sailors, but everyone here knows it. Didn't you recruit a group of scum from the prisons of the ports of arrival and various planets and let them go to counter the rebellion? I can't recover for a few years." Aspi made no secret of his contempt for the combat effectiveness of the armed sailors of the Winterfin Dynasty.

"As for Bastille and Gretel, did you see what they said at this meeting?" Aspis stood up directly, looking down at the other two dynasties who have been desperately reducing their sense of existence since the beginning of the meeting. Leader, "When people get the news, their minds have already flown."

In fact, up to now, even Siegel, who is the least caring, has obtained a position called the Wilder galaxy.

Gerrit and Bastille, who were the first to get the news, wanted to leave the port many times before, but they were all suppressed by Caligos.

"In fact, the various forces in the port of arrival have prepared some small gifts for the dynasty present here as a subsidy for counter-insurgency operations." Varadam could see clearly from the side, Siegel has not spoken until now, he is very Concerned about Siegel's refusal to participate in counterinsurgency operations.If he can choose, he definitely hopes that the sailors of the Foster family can be used as a counter-insurgency team. At least Siegel's restraint on his own dynasty's army is still in place, and it is elite enough.

Siegel finally spoke up. After all, he was really annoyed if the matter was not related to him: "I can participate in the counter-insurgency work. In addition, I have another proposal. The large fleet can be disbanded here, and the hearts of the people are scattered Now, it’s pointless to force it. We’re like a bunch of crabs in a basket, pulling each other’s hind legs, so it’s better for everyone.”

Volume [-] Siegel Foster: Chapter [-] The Mentor

The port of arrival is still in turmoil, and those relatively large forces will not be affected by this turmoil, but their income largely depends on the meager order in the port of arrival.The rebellion subsided a moment later, which meant greater economic losses for them and the forces behind them.

But with the end of the Rogue Trader meeting, a counter-insurgency force was quickly organized, and the team wearing ice blue uniforms was particularly conspicuous in the counter-insurgency force.Siegel did not choose to let the deep-sea hunters be the main force of the counter-insurgency team.Instead, he assigned the defense force he had brought from Sintila to deal with the rebellion at the port of arrival.

This is a rather nonsensical decision.Compared with the light infantry regiment of the deep-sea hunters, the guards initially laid a foundation of mechanized troops, and there were a large number of recruits in them.

Combat in a space like the port of arrival, first of all, their armored units cannot be used on the field, and secondly, although they have experience in killing chicken thieves in the nest capital, this is not enough to offset their strangeness in space construction operations, especially the port of arrival Gravity generators in many places have malfunctioned or even been completely damaged. In a sense, they have exploited their weaknesses and avoided their strengths.

Siegel wanted to see the combat capabilities of Sintila's guard soldiers in this situation, and let the recruits see their blood by the way.When I was in the hive capital before, I saw that they looked very elite and there were rewards, but Siegel hadn't seen what the combat effectiveness of these guards was like.Although the deep-sea hunter is easy to use, there is not much population on Agor's entire planet. Therefore, no matter how bad Sintila's reputation is, Siegel must let these soldiers take the lead.

Siegel can’t take a detour every time he needs to go to the planets of Agor (Deep Sea Hunter), Bronte (Bronte Long Swordsman), Mark Buss-Quintas (Mark Bain’s Personal Soldier) to recruit himself elite force.

Laurentina and Skadi entered the port of arrival with about 3000 recruits. They will cooperate with the military force of the Kulda family and the remaining armed forces in the port of arrival to clean up the cultists in the port of arrival and restore The order of the main buildings in the port of arrival.

As for the remaining 1000 people, they are the technicians of the armored units in the operation cabin. Even if Siegel is blind in the army, he will not let them mix with the infantry to fight street battles.

The deep-sea hunters are responsible for the defense of the port area. They quickly adapted to the strange gravity environment in the deep space. With the addition of some elite veterans, the combat effectiveness of the deep-sea hunters does not seem to worry Siegel.

"Just wait until the next time you get a group of deep-sea hunters." Siegel watched the deep-sea hunters comment on the recruits from Sintila.In fact, since the two groups were mixed into one group, the minor conflicts between the Sintila people and the Agor people have not stopped.People from Sintila think that they are the direct line of the Foster family, and they are the personal guards; the Agor people think they are thinking of farts, and the embroidered pillow is also worthy of being a direct line. I can embroider fish with two-handed swords, you OK?

The cultures of the two planets are too big, and Siegel probably understands why the empire likes to divide them into standard regiments according to the conscription places.As far as the empire is concerned, their administrative power simply cannot break up these soldiers and integrate them together.

The planet-based guard regiments often have a considerable sense of honor and morale. For the empire, being able to fight is the only criterion for testing problems.Then the problem of inconsistent guard standards is no longer a problem.

Fortunately, the Sintila people didn't learn anything else, and they respected their superiors in a decent way. The trio of deep-sea hunters commanded these Sintila soldiers without any resistance, but the Agor people would have some " Subjective initiative", will do things.

Fighting in deep space, such as inside a spacecraft, inside a space station, is different from fighting in a hive.It seems that it is all street fighting, and it needs to be cleared one by one, but the structure of the hive city can support the guards to use armor and even shoot with large-caliber artillery (Death Direct Strike is another story); in deep space, the firepower of the soldiers Strictly restricted, they will not carry equipment with excessive armor-piercing capability, whether it is a melta bomb or ordinary explosives, the equivalent is strictly limited within a certain range.

As the counter-insurgency troops deepened, such scenes continued to occur in various places in the port of arrival. Automatic guns and laser guns fired salvos to suppress the rioting crowd, and cultists fell to the ground one by one; explosives with small equivalents exploded. Metal barricades, small chainsaws cutting through the hatches of the confined space, and shotgun barrages sweeping the room clean.

Strictly speaking, the counter-insurgency team has no time to identify who are the real cult members, who are thugs, and who are innocent... No, there are no innocent people in the port of arrival.

Those with the Chaos logo were the targets of elimination. Those who surrendered and gave up resistance were stripped and inspected. After confirming that there were no Chaos believers mixed in, they were thrown into the hall of the port of arrival.The armed forces of the Rogue Traders don't have time to identify what they really are, and this work will eventually be handed over to the remaining forces in the port of arrival.

Considering the large number of barbaric tribes in the port of arrival and the famous "mentors", the residual value of these people should be well squeezed out.

The counter-insurgency operation was far smoother than expected. These recruits from Sintila occasionally suffered casualties, but the cult rebellion was also an easy task for them.Considering the empire's operation time of nearly 1 years plus millions of planets, the rebellion of evil god believers that caused serious consequences is a small probability event.

In most cases, it was easily suppressed by various armed forces of the empire.

Laurentina led the people to occupy the core stronghold of the cult believers, and a large number of people were subdued by her team members.

And she looked at the head of Sheila Amick rolling on the ground. The pained expression of the King of the Roaming Harbor before his death still remained on it, and the entire head was etched with various signs of depravity.

Laurentina pulled out the bolt gun at her waist and smashed the head on the ground to pieces.

"Not a single one."

Gunshots and screams continued to ring out in this stronghold.

Mel may be the busiest person besides Laurentina and Skadi. She took time out of her busy schedule to observe and study the performance of her products in actual combat.

Judging from her expression, she seemed satisfied.

And Siegel is talking with the "supplier", the representative of the "mentor", and he is preparing to accept a gift from the forces in the port of arrival.

The provider wears a dark gray robe with crimson, and the facial features are squeezed to other places by the life-protecting bionic pipe wrapped around his body. The group of "mentors" is not necessarily the largest group of slave traders in the port of arrival, but they must be the best.Their purpose is: to acquire, reform and sell the best and most professional human slaves.

They claim to be able to meet all the needs of customers, whether they are members of the Empire or Chaos, they can buy what they want from them.

No one knows how cruel and terrifying the methods behind them are. It is said that they can even provide customers with a prostitute assassin who looks like a saint of the empire.

Just hearing the name of the product, Siegel's blood pressure was already full, so he was very reluctant to deal with the mentor.But they just like customers like Siegel, who look at me and have nothing to do with me. When they combine a beautiful assassin with superior skills in various senses and a smart Ogryn bodyguard who can operate on the ship after transformation When placed in front of Siegel.

Siegel decisively chose the latter.

Volume [-] Siegel Foster: Chapter [-] Bodyguard Karoo

The rebellion was suppressed in this way, similar to the situation in the empire, at least the port of arrival seemed to have returned to its former appearance, but Siegel knew very well that the believers of the evil gods could not be uprooted at all, they just hid in the space station. deepest.

But the Rogue Traders didn't intend to go any further. When the forces in the port of arrival sent gifts, or rewards, to the Rogue Traders, they thought that the counter-insurgency operation was over.

It would be impolite to go any further, after all, the buttocks of everyone in Luojiaogang is not yellow mud, it's real shit.

At present, apart from the leaders of the small dynasties wandering in the expansion area, only two dynasties, Foster and Armengard, are still staying in the port.Bastille and Gerrit left the port of stay after the Rogue Trader meeting, and the two dynasties of Winterfin and Kurda also set sail after the end of the rebellion.

As for Armengard, Ofe really agreed with Igrein's suggestion, and asked her housekeeper to submit a written cooperation letter to Siegel. In addition to the imprint of the Armengard dynasty, there is also This is the sky eagle symbol of the empire, which means more in-depth cooperation between the two dynasties.

The content of the cooperation is mainly for the development of the expansion area. Facing the threat of aliens and heresies in the expansion area, the two dynasties will form an offensive and defensive alliance to jointly defend the interests of the two dynasties.

Siegel signed this cooperation agreement with only a little thought. He must admit that he will have to look outside the expansion area for a while after this expedition is over.The Foster family still has a few interests to take care of within the expansion area. If Offee is willing to help take a look, then Siegel will be much more relaxed.

And his biggest job right now is watching the servitor clean up the big guy in front of him, this Ogrim named Karoo he's a big guy even in Ogrim, he's maybe twelve feet tall, muscular and tough, he's down The servant moved, constantly raising and lowering his limbs.

Before accepting this big man, Mel's servo skull flew over and checked him up and down, especially the implants in his head. In the end, Mel didn't seem to find anything wrong or picky. Siegel watched the skull leave the scene with a feeling of frustration.

Even leaving aside his intellectual implants, this Ogryn is a natural "officer" on the starship: there are special "servants" in charge of his personal hygiene - otherwise he will definitely make the bridge full of strange things smell; never below deck--for his twelve-foot stature would never allow it.

The servitor finally cleaned up the big man Karu with instruments. After cleaning up, Karu was still quite a white person. Regular cleaning like this can at least ensure that he will not have any strange smell on him.

"Captain Siegel, I'm here to report! What do I need to do?"

"Be my bodyguard."

"I understand, it is to keep those bastards away from you, and I will kill anyone who dares to shoot at you with a knife."

"That's almost what it means." Siegel nodded approvingly. After all, you can't expect an Ogryn to have a high level of intelligence. In short, being able to fight is the only criterion for testing truth in this universe.

When leading Karoo back to the bridge, Siegel suddenly thought that this guy might have spent more time on the bridge on the top deck than himself.

For a moment he considered whether to recruit a group of O'Green, who had no salary requirements other than a bigger appetite.

However, considering the transformation costs brought about by Ogreen's claustrophobia, there is indeed a corresponding logic behind many of the empire's actions.

The bigger reason why Siegel chose this O'Green bodyguard was to liberate Skadi and Laurentina so that they could better undertake military work and tasks.In normal times, especially in the territory of the empire, it is enough to hand over one's own security work to Karoo.

When leading Karoo on the bridge, Siegel had to admit that the slaves of the "Mentors" were of good quality, and even the equipment could not be faulted.

He is wearing a cow-green armor with a huge fine gold shield, and the other hand is a huge metal glove. Although it is a pity that it is not a power glove, Siegel is a little bit sorry, but looking at the thick and full of metal texture For boxing gloves, Siegel doesn't think it's a big problem whether there is a dynamic field.

In any case, the counter-insurgency at the port of arrival was fruitful, and it was time to move on.

-

Siegel and Offie stood on the bridge. After establishing a cooperative relationship, the two also exchanged relevant information they had obtained at the port of arrival, mainly about the possibility that Karadewar's fleet may appear in the next which galaxy.

Siegel got word that there was a small human colony in the process of being developed in a galaxy called Weld.

And Offie's destination is a galaxy called Jupt, but she hasn't heard of any colonies developing there, but her intelligence provider did give her this location.

"Where are we going next?" Ofie asked Siegel's thoughts, "Ladies first?"

"I don't think you need to be too anxious, whether it's Wild or Jupt. If I can, I can even wait another week, or simply find a galaxy in the star map and try my luck." Siegel gave An unexpected idea came up.

"Well, I thought you would be more aggressive. My intelligence officer is obviously trying to induce me to go to Jupt."

"Because it looks like there is a place with clues. It's so mysterious, it suddenly appeared, and you found the location of that galaxy in the star map. Including me, a place that seems relatively safe, Gerrit The news from Bastille must be about wealth and treasures, and there are indeed people trying to manipulate it behind the scenes."

"a?"

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Finding such a person in the port of arrival is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack." After Siegel saw Igrein, his brain suddenly turned, and he said, "Why don't we go to Wilde?" , No matter who is trying to control the situation, he will definitely not guess the fact that our two dynasties are united, we can see what tricks they left behind in Wilder."

"You can launch what is in Jupt!"

"Ok, deal!"

-

After the goal was decided, members of the two dynasties were quickly mobilized.

The Golden Journey was the first to leave the port, and Siegel steered the ship to wait for a day in the asteroid belt in the galaxy.

A day later, the Banshee and Armengard's affiliated ships also left the port, and the two dynasties headed for the first stop of this journey, the Wilder galaxy.

Volume [-] Siegel Foster: Chapter [-] Wilder

The Veld Galaxy is a galaxy consisting of one star and five planetary systems.There is a dense asteroid cluster on the inner ring of the galaxy. The celestial bodies in the inner ring of the galaxy that are strongly affected by the stars are usually rich in various minerals. The same is true for this asteroid cluster, although only a small amount of basic minerals are distributed in each small planets, but what is fascinating is the large deposits of gemstones and precious metals on individual asteroids.

But mining the inner rings of galaxies is often difficult due to their susceptibility to stars.Stellar fluctuations often destroy the electronic systems of mining bases, and strong radiation can also have a serious impact on workers engaged in mining.

The five planets in the Veld system are mostly lackluster, but the eighth moon of the third gas giant does host a tiny Imperial colony of around 6000 people.

We can call her Wilder 3-8 Colony.

The planet the colony was on was a frozen planet with two continents covered in thick ice caps and a pure but thin atmosphere.The above resources may be worthy of the empire building a colony here, but judging from the report, there is no magic mineral like Nefern on it.

The colony was founded by a rogue trader with a colony team.Due to the harsh geographical environment on the surface of this satellite, he did not choose to incorporate this colony into his dynasty.After getting paid for the transportation, the Rogue Trader left the galaxy.

Glaciers and mysterious caves are buried under the ice cap, and the original colony has only a few hundred people, and it is impossible to explore.Rather than a colony, they are more like a mining outpost, located in the most mineral-rich location on the planet, relying on deep wells to provide underground buried water, and synthetic food to survive.

Since the Wilder galaxy is located in the Great Cauldron region, in the region closest to the “Great Mouth” channel, fleets of empires often pass by, replenishing them with various supplies, and then taking away the minerals they mined.Some people will also arrive at this colony with the fleet of the empire, and with the development of time, this colony has barely developed to the size it is today.

But fortunately, compared to the barrenness of the products on the various planets in the galaxy, the reserves of minerals in this colony are still relatively considerable. Although the lives of the empire people above are hard, they are generally able to survive.

If they can, their life may continue like this, and with the improvement of infrastructure and the gradual stabilization of material supply, it may become a small mineral planet.

Sadly, life was soon shattered.

The capture of such a colony does not require the so-called orbital bombing at all. When a small fleet of six ships casts a huge shadow on the colony's wounds, it is enough to plunge the small colony into panic and chaos.

This is a pirate fleet composed of 2 light cruisers. They just parked over the colony, neither firing nor projecting armed personnel to the ground.No one knew what they wanted, and the colonial administrators didn't know whether they should contact each other or prepare for their own final battle; the missionaries of the state religion were in the square to encourage the residents to fight for the empire.

The commander of this wolf pack fleet is called Hume, and he seems to particularly like the feeling of spreading fear. As the latest pirate to join Karadvar, he has not yet had many characteristics affected by the warp.But his enthusiasm for the Faceless Lord is enough to make people speechless.Hume was particularly concerned about his master's rituals, and his ship had already loaded a lot of slaves. As long as he took the colony's population away, he would overfulfill his master's task.

Hume doesn't look down on those former imperial naval officers under the Lord of the Faceless at all. The empire has imprinted too deeply on those people. Even if these officers rebel, they still play the same tricks of the empire. Pooh .

"Head, when are we going down?"

"Why are you so anxious, what can you grab from this colony?" Hume pointed to the snow-covered planet outside the porthole and said, "Ice? Or the ore they mined? The most valuable thing in this colony is people! It's people! Do you understand? We must put our precious capacity on the population to complete the task of the Faceless Lord, and don't focus on messy things!"

"Then when will we capture 'people'?"
