Second week of the campaign........
++New Message Follows++
++Summary of Actions, Prostasia.
++ My Lord, Our forces have arrived on planet and made contact with the Governor. Protasia Primus is secure for the time being, but resources are running thin. Local defense forces are, indeed, decimated. Will consult for punitive actions for the local governorship after successful completion of repelling the Xenos threat. Forces of the Space Wolves and Raptors, lead by Lord Russvik and Captain Rikhen, respectively, have arrived to assist in purging the Xenos scum from this world. The first waves have proved to be ineffective, and further resources from the Chapters are being marshaled. A planetary beach head has only been marginally successful, as the Necron scourge proves to be most resilient.

++Drixtol, secure that planet! Long range auspex scans reveal the possible threat of a Greenskin invasion fleet. Currently, there are 3 KillKruiza's en route to the system. Will marshal the strength of the two Astartes Battle Barges to attempt to stave off the impending increase in Xenos activity. In the name of the God-emperor, purge the Xenos filth before they can establish a further foothold in the system++

Week 1 Results
The Imperium of Man has responded as expected, sending no less than 2 different Marine Chapters and representatives of the Inquisition. Task Forces from the Space Wolves, Raptors, and Inquisition contacted the planetary government and discovered that the Planetary forces have been under siege by Necron forces of unknown origins.
Forces of the Necrons made a distinct show of force, with armies from 2 different Dynasties appearing on the battlefield.
Game 1:
Necrons of the Thokt Dynasty deployed an Immortal firing line against the Onslaught of WolfGuard Battle Leader Bulveye's Thunderwolf Cavalry and summarily defeated them on the field of Battle. Bulveye's headstrong charge into the oncoming fire was his undoing, and he was sent licking his wounds.....
Order VP: 450
Destruction VP: 1500
Game 2:
Inquisitor Acolyte Drixtol deployed his forces and overwhelmed the forces of an unnamed Necron Dynasty. The Necron forces phased from that battlefield, and are sure to return:
Order VP: 1500
Destruction VP: 0
Game 3:
Inquisitor Drixtol capatilized on his decisive victory by moving against the warriors of the Thokt Dynasty. Lord Hateksut marshaled his forces and attempted to drive the Inquisitorial units back, but was unprepared for the armored advance.
Order VP: 1500
Destruction VP: 112
Game 4:
Raptor forces, lead by Kayvas Rikhen, deployed a stealth scout force to investigate the strength and identity of the unknown Necron Dynasty. The Raptor forces were quickly spotted and dispatched by the, as yet, unkown Necron Lord and his forces.
Order VP: 0
Destruction VP: 830
