Warhammer, Rogue Trader Notes

And Siegel has no interest in the Malcador heavy tank.

Really no interest at all.

They are all mortal auxiliary relics left over from the Great Crusade period, but Siegel said that there are also gaps between the relics.

Valdor can be an important means of countering the opponent's large war machines, and the Minotaur can also attack the enemy from some special angles.

And every time the Macado tank appeared, it was indeed used for emergency.

This car is full of flaws.

First there's that shitty engine, top speed is the same as the Baneblade superheavy tank, but the engine isn't as reliable as the Baneblade at all.

According to rumors, Malcador couldn't even reverse the car.

Then there is the fixed turret. The main gun of the tank can only shoot targets within a range of 90° directly in front of the car body.

Since it was used as the main tank during the Great Crusade, this so-called holy object has a considerable stock in the empire.

Many worlds have converted the Malcador tanks left over from the Great Crusade into industrial and agricultural equipment.

Siegel has a lot of dissatisfaction with this old-fashioned tank, but in the face of various problems that Vraks may have, he must be prepared for the existence of this tank, whether it is used by himself or facing the opponent's tank.

This tank is almost lackluster, the only thing that can be praised is his smelly and hard armor.

-

While writing, I thought of a hellish joke.

The Malcador tank, like the owner of the name, is for emergency use.

Volume 180: The Wind and Cloud of Flax: Chapter [-] Everything Progresses

Under Siegel's hint, Colonel Meyer consciously retrieved supplies from warehouses far away from the Vraks Starport area.

Siegel wondered what this old man in the officialdom could see, but he couldn't ask clearly, the two sides could only maintain this kind of tacit understanding.

The situation of the Flax management was acceptable to Siegel, but as time went on, among the grassroots workers of Flax, Siegel almost handed over millions of Flax workers to the other party.

Siegel also wanted to understand why the Inquisition chose to let the assassin assassinate Bishop Savannah.

According to their Vraks' influence, they are capable enough to bury the truth of the fact, and then wait for the next opportune time.

According to the news sent back by Ba Ba, apart from the workers in the Starport area, most of the people at the grassroots level in Vraks have serious dissatisfaction with the rogue traders, the charter fleet, and even the imperial guards who came to Vraks to change their clothes. Be vigilant.

The only good news is that Karoo has almost won over all the Eugenlin ape-men in the Vraks star port, and the price is that a lot of supplies have been consumed.

Siegel had no choice but to entrust Jon Kun's transport ship to transport supplies from other planets.

And the raging public opinion mobilized by Savan and Mamon on Vraks is the biggest obstacle facing Siegel now.

From time to time, officials under Marmon will conduct surprise inspections in various names on the Vlax star port, and Siegel can only avoid the edge for the time being.

Acting rashly is likely to be countered by the opponent.Siegel didn't want Savan and Marmon to label themselves heretics.

Once you become an excuse for the other party's actions, the follow-up processing will be very troublesome.

There is no way, and a religious leader competed for the prestige of the grassroots at the opponent's home court, and Siegel directly conceded.

Whether it is Savan's own behavior or the preaching of Mamun and his disciples, the vast majority of Vraks grassroots people regard Savan as the emperor's envoy.

To solve this problem, we must either solve Savan himself, or solve Savan's authority and influence in religion.

Siegel doesn't have the ability to handle Savan himself.

Not to mention Savan's lofty status in the state religion, Siegel is just a pilgrim, and reading many books on the state religion does not mean that he has received religious education. It is too naive to want to surpass a bishop in the classics.

Unless the emperor performed a show of possession for everyone at the debate scene.

Otherwise forget it.

In this case, Siegel could only endure and condone what Savan and Marmon did on Vraks.

However, it was not that no one fought back. The activities of the Death Cult assassins on Vraks did lead to the deaths of many disciples of Savannah.

But their actions led the grassroots people in the fortress to believe in the news that Vraks was about to be attacked, and more people joined the ranks of Savannah's disciples.

But it's not all bad news. Siegel still hasn't found the location of the void shield generator in Fort Flax, but he has figured out the location of 80% of the laser macrocannon arrays on the periphery of Fort Flax that are responsible for orbital defense.

If this part of the macro cannon can be eliminated, and the remaining artillery fire is within the range that the starship can withstand, then it will be possible for the starship to provide support in orbit.

The bunkers of these macro guns are located in the underground permanent fortifications, and the thick bunkers can resist the orbital bombing of the ship's macro guns.

He also got the position of the command center of the laser array.This key point is located inside the Fortress of Flax, which is also buried deep in the ground and is protected by a large number of guards.When the ground Auger array captures a starship or a huge war mechanical creation, it can command the laser array to strike the target.

How to destroy these laser arrays has become Siegel's most concerned issue at present.

Siegel didn't have many options, either destroy the fort or destroy the control center.

Judging from the known intelligence, orbital bombing may not be able to do anything to the defense array on this planet.

The easiest way is to blow up the laser array command center inside Fort Flax, and the most troublesome way is to blow up most of the macro cannons of the laser array.

Time was very tight for this task, and in the period following the unrest in Vraks they had only a short time to complete it.

In order to reduce the difficulty of this task, Siegel wanted to lower Mamon's wariness of their fleet.

When a huge fleet is overhead, everyone will immediately choose to control the orbital defense system.

Jean Bart found a suitable system for the fleet in a nearby system with a rich asteroid belt and several gas planets rich in fuel gases of hydrogen and methane.With the aid of the mechanical ark, the dynasty fleet can rest well in that galaxy.

The Golden Journey can also run at full power to prepare more items for their next actions.

The subspace channel between the two galaxies is very stable, and the fleet can arrive at Vraks immediately after receiving the message.

The fleet soon set off.Except for the Golden Ship and some transport ships with transport missions, the rest of Foster and Thor's fleet chose to leave this galaxy.

This large-scale regression made Mamon also heave a sigh of relief, and the transfer of Foster's fleet proved that Siegel and the others would also transfer soon.

It's a pity to lose Siegel, a ready-made target, but he does have more time to guide the belief of believers in the direction he needs.

-

And in the galaxy next door, the large fleet that has been transferred is anchored in this galaxy named Gold Amalgam by the sage Mel.

The giant plasma buckets of the Golden Voyage collect around the star a cloud of plasma that escapes from the star.After being refined and processed, it will become plasma. These things are important raw materials for the empire.It is also the reaction core inside the engine of the imperial starship.

These plasmas are processed into fuel blocks and fed into the plasma engines of the Imperial starships.

Promethium is also an important fuel for starships, and it is generally used as fuel for the auxiliary and circulatory systems on starships.And it itself is also an industrial raw material. Promethium is a general term, and it generally refers to the general term for fuels commonly used in the empire.

On planets, it is generally processed and produced with petroleum as raw material, and sometimes a large amount of combustible ice excavated from the seabed can also be used as raw material for promethium.

As for the things in space that can be used as promethium raw materials, there are more things, and the sages of Mechanicum will try to extract gas from the gas giant planets to produce promethium.Even various isotopic substances may become the raw material of promethium.

A large amount of raw materials were swallowed into the modified belly of the Golden Journey.

Then it flowed into the production line and was processed into the items Siegel needed.

Volume [-] of Flax: Chapter [-] Bloody Sanguinius Day

As time went on, Vraks' condition became more and more serious.

Bad news kept coming back to Siegel's desk from within Vraks, and Savann and Marmon had completed their grip on Vraks' management.

Willie, the minister of military affairs, defected to Savann, and General Carter of the defense force was completely emptied.

The only remaining armed forces loyal to the Empire on Vraks are the agents of the Ministry of Justice and the Battle Sisters.

The only corrupt officials still serving Siegel are Colonel Meyer and some of his officials.

And the grassroots people and soldiers in Flaks Fortress resisted anyone who came to Flaks from the stars.All personnel who want to enter the interior of Vraks from the star port must go through strict interrogation by the disciples of Savannah.

Even Siegel had valid reasons for wanting to enter Fort Flax.Mere pilgrimages to the Church of St. Leonis are not allowed into Vraks.

In other words, only those approved by the disciples of Savannah can enter Vraks.

There are many resentful pilgrims left on the star port. They made vows, but were turned away before their final destination.

Many pilgrims tried to protest to Vraks, but the light guns of the local garrison silenced them forever.

Due to the existence of these pilgrims in the Starport, the order began to become chaotic, and the Ministry of Justice had to increase its own military presence in the Starport to ensure the normal operation of the cargo transfer function of the Vraks Starport.

Siegel currently wants to know the situation inside Flax Fortress, and can only rely on the news of the Death Worshipers.

These messages are fragmented and disorganized, and it takes a period of time to sort out to form a logical information chain.

As the situation in Flax became more and more tense, Siegel also started his own actions.

The Golden Ship left the Vraks Starport and rose to stay in an orbit beyond the range of the laser macro cannon. Regularly, transport ships would transport supplies to the cabin of the Golden Ship.

Leman Russ, Annihilator, Wyvern Mortar, Chimera, and Drews Tank.

The training intensity of the Sintila guards has been readjusted to normal intensity. These armed personnel have been reborn under the high-intensity training, and they need a lot of nutrition to repair their bodies damaged during training.More importantly, they need a battle to integrate what they have trained.

And the Vraks Rebellion is their best test room.

Siegel had already prepared for possible changes in Flax, but the changes on Flax still exceeded Siegel's expectations.

Due to the assassination of the Death Cult on Vraks, the workers who originally existed on Vraks maintained a considerable degree of vigilance against those outsiders.This kind of vigilance is not only reflected in the workers working on the star port and those foreign pilgrims, but also divided among them.

The disciples of Mamon and Savan tried hard to capture the Death Worshipers who sneaked into Vraks, but the effect was not good, they didn't care much about the split of the personnel on Vraks.

Since they couldn't stand together, the opponent's fate was already determined in their eyes.

But division at the grassroots also means unity, and Savann's missionaries have a firm grip on the workers of Vraks, who are ragged, impoverished, shackled, and built day after day under close surveillance. Workers in underground warehouses and maintaining the road network promised that Savan would rescue them from this hopeless sea of ​​misery.

They will be pardoned by the Sector Bishop and become noble fighters of the holy war.

More and more messages circulated inside Flax Fortress, and the eyes and ears of the Inquisition finally realized that they had mistaken the investigation object.

Due to the strange appearance of Siegel's fleet in Vraks, Mamon's carefully concocted rumors immediately misled the Inquisition agents hidden in Vraks and diverted their attention to Siegel.

And when the Throne agents realized that the Sector Bishop had gathered a huge crusade around him, and secretly held Vraks in his hands.

It's too late, and it takes a heavy blow to smother such heresy in its infancy!

1.986.809.M41, Sanguinius Day.

Even as Vraks in the Arsenal world, it is necessary to give the workers above enough rest time during the Holy Day of the Empire.This holiday was commemorated in honor of the Emperor's greatest son, Sanguinius.In order to thank Sanguinius for his grace, mercy and sacrifice to mankind, the people of the empire will hang the empire's sky eagle logo and pictures of Sanguinius's white wings everywhere on this day.

The subjects of the Empire are given a period of holiday, second only to Ascension Day.The people of the empire tend to choose to get married or prepare for pregnancy during these two holidays. They believe that this period is an auspicious day, and they will be blessed by the emperor and the son of god.

The State Church is probably the second busiest imperial institution during this period (the Inquisition is always the busiest), and large-scale gatherings of residents are an excellent occasion to promote the teachings of the State Church.

The square of the church has also become the best place for residents to gather.

On Vrax, this is no exception.

Bishop Savan of the star district stood on the podium in front of the church square in full costume.The nuns in the silver shroud are no longer in charge of the bishop's security work, they can only be responsible for the security work in the fringe areas during such festivals.

Surrounding Savan are his loyal disciples.

As in previous years, every grand festival, a huge bonfire would be lit in the square in front of the church, and Savan impassionedly narrated the classics of the state religion behind the bonfire stand.

At the high point of the speech, a heretic was tied up by Savan's disciples and thrown into the fire.

The screams of the heretic in the flames interrupted Savan's speech, and the whole square fell into extreme madness with the screams of the heretic's death.

Ripples suddenly flashed on Bishop Savan's body, but a guard beside him was shot and fell to the ground.

Mamun immediately realized what had happened, and the guards of Savan immediately ran up to the minaret and surrounded the bishops of the sector.

"The Scarus sector has always been seriously threatened by heresy, just like the bonfire here purifies this heresy. Only a holy war as blazing as a holy fire can free the entire sector from suffering!" Savan ignored Stopped by the guards, they continued to shout loudly: "And I will be the one who lights the holy flame!"

two more guards

The soldier was headshot accurately, and Mamun also confirmed the direction of the attack, and the guards moved towards the abandoned watchtower on the side of St. Leonis Church.

"Holy warriors, don't be afraid, find that assassin. Starting from him, we will ignite the entire Scarus sector, and each of you will become a hero remembered by history."

In the end, Vraks was completely detonated by Savan's voice.

-

Let me briefly mention the stable subspace channel mentioned in the previous chapter.

Strictly speaking, I wrote it wrong. I originally wanted to write that the distance between the two galaxies is close enough that even without a navigator, it is possible to reach Vraks only by guiding the jump engine through calculation.

But when I wrote it in the early morning, I was still in a daze and forgot about it a few times.

But stable subspace passages are not uncommon. Even after the Great Rift unfolds, the dark side of the empire still has stable subspace passages for the empire to use.
