(OCC:Alright, and off we go)
Sui’na looked out the viewport on the side of the drop ship as it descended into the lower atmosphere and towards the crater. He thought about all the brave soldiers who were ready to give their lives in service for the Greater Good and thought about the sacrifices some of them wound be making this day. The ultimate sacrifice, he thought, is it so necessary for such a simple task that seems to be petty in face of much more challenging and lethal odds for us. Many things swirled through his mind over and over until the voice of his aid took him out of his state of mind.
“Aun Vior’la Sui’na, we are ready to make ground insertion, and your HQ has already been prepared. Intelligence shows that the enemy is aware of our presence, but doesn’t seem too aware of our actual strategy, sir.” Sui’na looked at him with concerned eyes.
“So the element of surprise is almost gone completely.” He closed his eyes and said sadly, “I was hoping to get more of our men in place but I guess it cannot be helped.” He worried about all his troopers, for unlike man Tau commanders whose only concern was the completion of the overall objective; he cared about brining as many of his men home and victory. If too many were sacrifice, then why does any gain matter.
But it didn’t matter for the moment because a thump announced they had made ground level and were ready to disembark. Strolling down the ramp holding his head high and his sword swung strongly across his back, he walked a couple of feet over to where the tactical hologram was standing, and a tent readied with all many of surveillance equipment in place. The hologram showed the crater and little moving ships, each detailed down to a fine point thanks to Tau holoscanner technology.
“Alright, let’s see what we’ve got,” he said as he leaned into the hologram and let the machine project a 360 degree image in his head………………………………………………………..

(Alright, each of you will get your orders separately here. I need you to get your troops as far into the fight as possible. Enemies die, so auto-killing is ok for now, just don’t overdo it. Get your people to the lip of the crater by next post)
Serpion5 and chaoslovespussy2012: Your commanders were given strict orders to get down and form a surprise attack from the rear of the crater in order to take out some human artillery bunkers. Your landing was rough, and chaoslovespussy2012, your transport went down right in the enemy lines. Serpion5, do you rush to aid him or do you proceed with your mission? Chaoslovespussy2012, do you fight or surrender to the mercy of the humans???
Anfo and spacemarine00: You are the heavy hitters; Sui’na’s using you as bait. You must attack the front, Anfo, your people are in support of the tanks. Do you move with them for cover or do you charge right in weapons firing. Remember, the fronts got all kinds of nasty surprises, so get creative. Casualties will be had, so a man or one tank will do.
Captain Fatty: you get the fun job. Your men jump from the transports, landing a little off course and smack dab in the middle of the barrack area. Do you shoot it up, or do you keep on the move, heading for your objective, the enemies motor pool
Therizza: Ok, your Pathfinders were already injected into the battlefield by stealth craft from the commanders carrier. You spent the night disposing of sentries and have sheltered in the bunker and finally the battle has started around you. You mission is to make your way out and use your laser-light pointer to direct orbital fire upon three key objectives. What do you do??? Do you target the already burning barracks, or perhaps the enemies energy generator??? Perhaps the inner fortress??? Whatever you do, be careful, for you might hit your own troops if you are reckless!!!(your only aiming, I'll bring down where you choose)
