Mission Critical (40K); Francks' world campaign part 1

"Major, its 0400, you are need in the comms room, there may be a problem"

Major Steiner greeted the morning with a blunt curse. Grabbing his holstered plasma pistol he made his way to the comms room. Inside, lieutenant Horst was unsuccessful trying to calm down an excited voice on the vox


"Sir, its trooper Deits, station at outpost West three" reported Horst.


"They are all dead, sir, the whole fraggin outpost, Captain Zorn missing, I can here gunfire and screaming from the southern dome. I think.....” Deit's report ended in a scream and the signal cut out.


Horst cursed as the signal cut out, twisting several dial failed to return the terrified trooper.


" lieutenant, log the time we lost contact with outpost west three” said Steiner, checking the charge on his plasma pistol “and call out the guard, it looks like we have unexpected guests".
