In the Snow at an Ancient Site

 Again, on the planet Skyren, and in the frozen north. Both a Mechinicus and a Greenskin force stumble into each other while drawn to an unknown, ancient urban ruin located in a sunken valley. The lure of archaeotech is high.

The view taken from over the Orks initial positions with Boyz Mobs left to right, with a Deff Dredd left of center and the Warboss and Nobs in armor to the right...Opposite view of the forces of the Omnissiah, inc Skitarri and Kastelan robots on far left...

One Boyz Mob rushes forward towards Skitarri and Kastelan, to draw off defender fire so others can approach. And they do take losses...

When some Skitarri advance in the center, closer to the Greenskins, some Boyz charge successfully into them and annihilate them...

Replacing most of their losses through a tactical skill, the orks on the right charge and destroy another unit of Skitarri screening those Kastelans...

More Boyz supported by the Deff Dredd, take down some War Servitors and most of a Skitarri band...

The Kastelans take down the Boyz with the exception of their Nob...

In the center, some Boyz take serious fire from the defending Skitarii...

The Boyz get some revenge as they finish off the wounded Skitarri along with the Tech Priest Dominus...

The Nob is no match for a pair of Kastelans...

The Skitarri defending the right flank are charged by more Boyz, and they lose most of their members. This has the appearance of an absolute disaster for the forces of the Omnissiah...

The last of the Skitarri stationed on a high point in the ruins, inflict some serious hits on the Boyz preparing to charge them. Note the Warboss and his Nobs approaching at the top...

On the right, the Marshall and his last Skitarri are lost to the Orks...

The Warboss, Nobs, and Boys shoot down some unfortunate Servitors as they move in on the last remaining Skitarii (just barely seen in upper right)...

But the fight completely in one turn! With the Mechinicus force nearly wiped out, The Kastelan Robots charge the Warboss and his Nobs, and destroy them all! The Greenskins fall back in disarray. Talk about a complete reversal! So the Omnissiah will search through the ruins after all.
