THE NESTIR V CRUSADE REPORTS IN THAT THEY HAVE
SUCCESSFULLY HALTED AN ATTACK ON HIVE SECUNDUS
May 27. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.402.9.3.
We have received word from 8th Company today, that the Imperial Crusade at Nestir V, successfully stopped an attack upon Hive Secundus.
Codicer Korvac of the Legio was on the forefront of the battle, but without the strong unity that is held by the Crusade, this victory would not have been possible. - This stands as a stark reminder that 8th Company still does a good job at leading the Crusade; of that the continued unity of the Imperium still stands and that
strength resides in Humanity still.
For the full report, please see the Legio Archives.

THE PAX IMPERIALIS HANGS IN THE BALANCE
May 13. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.363.9.3.
The people of the Icar 05 system once more protest against the civilian government and demand that the Guardian Angels Chapter take over as the system's ruling body.
Both the Governor and his Counsel, as well as the Chapter's spokesperson urge the civilians to stay calm and remember that the Chapter already issued a statement to the Government saying they have until the start of July to make things right.
So far the people of the system have not been suffering famine or direct poverty. The system's infra structure has been well maintained and the Government holds to that this will continue for many months still.
On the other hand, the representatives of the People of "Icar 05's Future Alliance", show to facts indicating that the star system has had no employment measures or income for the last six months and that the people's aid for the poor still has not come into effect despite that the people have made many attempts to contact the ruling body.
Unemployment numbers are rising rapidly and people are getting poorer for it.
If this continues, says the representatives of "Icar 05's Future Alliance"; then Icar 05 has no future.
The Government on the other hand states that while things are worse now than they were half a year ago, they are not as bad as the "Icar 05's Future Alliance" indicate.
The Guardian Angels wish to make no further comment on the issue, except to say they intend to keep their word to both sides, and that if either side oversteps their bounds, the Chapter will employ harsh tactics to ensure that the Pax Imperialis is kept.

ECONOMIC VENTURES OF THE CHAPTER
April 25. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.314.9.3.
The Chapter Steward met with the head of the Cereberos Imperial Navy Fleet, for a strategic meeting between allies and a possible business venture for the people of the Chapter's Home Solar System; Icar 05.
The meeting was held during a banquet that cost over 3 million Imperial Credits and was funded by the Guardian Angels Chapter. In addition to this, the Chapter used nearly 8 billion of its emergency fund to fund upkeep costs on infrastructure and defences of their Homeworld.
Though the Chapter still wows to ensure the safety of their people, the head of the Treasury, Centurion Black, has expressed concern about that the Chapter's Emergency Fund is starting to run dry.

April 10. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.252.9.3.

BATTLE FORCE GEORGII GOES TO WAR
March 24. 2009 - Imperial Record 1.232.9.3.
Battle Force Georgii, lead by Crusade Commander D'Angelo, has arrived in the Aurum system and engaged enemies of the Tyranid and Orkoid genom there.
The Aurum system is something as rare as a naturally occuring 'Trihab System', meaning it holds three naturaly habitable planets, making it ideal as a staging ground for further Battle Operations against the Tyranid incurison within the Eastern Frontier.
The three planets within the system are:
Aurum Primaris
Laying closest to the sun, this warm, dry planet is a Penal World primarly used to recruit penetant prisoners into the Imperial Guard.
Aside from prisoners, this planet does however hold some other important resources and has had a constant Orkoid problem for decades.
Aurum Secundus
Is a relativly warm and humid Fuedal World, classed as an Agri World used to feed the inhabitants of the Aurum system.
Large portions of the planet is covered by oceans, while the continents are filled with vast jungles, swamps and agricultural areas, interspersed with many walled Feudal Cities.
Like Aurum Primaris, this planet too has been suffering from Orkoid infestation and the relativly primitive Planetary Defence Forces have had a hard time keeping the number of Orkoids down.
Aurum Triaris
Is a relativly dry, yet cool planet housing ceveral enormous Hive Cities.
This planet has been classed as an Industrial Hive World and houses the majority of the Aurum system's population.
Here the populace works hard to produce weapons, munitions and household items for the Imperium, while the Space Port 'Aurum Quintus' in orbit sees to it that trading ships unload and load wares in the proper manner.
The Chapter's "Battle Group Georgii" arrived in system seven days ago and have agreed to help the system rid itself of its Ork infestation. — In return, the Chapter has demanded unhindered use of the system in their battle against the Tyranid incursion.
After their arrival, "Battle Force Georgii" has placed one Company at each planet, with Third at Aurum Primaris, Fifth at Aurum Secundus and Fourth at Aurum Triaris.
So far Fifth Company has meet with the most resistance.
The Companies have not only encountered Ork forces as originally reported though, but the Third and Fifth Companies have both also encountered Tyranid Vaneguard Forces on their planetary charges.
More than 20 Drops have been made to counter these enemies allready, and of these twenty battles, only one has been unsuccessful.
With these strikes, orbital bombardments, artillery and more, the Chapter's Librarians calculate that the Chapter allready stands responsible for pacifying more than 6000 enemies and securing many key strategic areas.
In exchange for this huge death toll, the Companies have only lost four Marines and five Scouts, as well as Six other Marines that are to wounded to keep fighting without a long recouperation time.
Naturally with these new finds, the enemy forces are much greater than the Aurum system's Councel of Govornment reported and this has taken a greater than expected toll on the Battle Group's wargear; so after Commander D'Angelo meet with them personally on Aurum Triaris, the Councel of Aurum agreed to resupply the Chapter with any and all weapons and ammunition lost in these purifying missions.
We look forward to seeing this system
cleansed of the enemies of Mankind!

CONTACT WITH THE IMPERIAL CRUSADE
AT NESTIR V TEMPORARILY LOST
March 10. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.205.9.3.
The Imperial Crusade at Nestir V, lead by 8th Company's Commander Bannister, has not responded after ceveral attempts to hail them through Astropathic relay.
It is as of yet uncertain exactly what is causing this communication failure, but for now the Astropaths of the Chapter believe it is nothing serious.
Ademdum I:
A redirected message to the Legio revealed that the loss of communication simply is an Astropathic relay enhancer that has broken down after the power station at Hive Primus was damaged, and that the Crusade currently is working on repairing it.
Ademdum II:
Contact with the Nestir Crusade restored.

BLACK PEARL LAUNCHED
March 06. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.202.9.3.
Construction of Black Pearl is complete and the ship was launched today in a grand ceremony marking the completion of decades of work put in by the people of Icar V at the Annulus Space Port.
The ship has been constructed as an experimental Mars Pattern Battle Cruiser made mostly out of parts salvaged by the Guardian Angels Chapter, from Hulks they have cleansed throughout the years.
The construction of the ship has cost the Sector more than 7 billion Imperial Credits and it is expected that another 3 billion may be needed before it is absolutely complete.
Still, this ship is worth it as the many parts that put it together are highly advanced Archotech not readily understood or available anymore.
Naturally the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Imperial Navy have kept a very close eye on this project and Tech-Priests still continue to monitor the ships systems throughout her maiden voyage, as the highly advanced technology onboard may prove to be unstable at times; though no major problems have been encountered so far.
As many as 80 000 people have been employed to construct and man the ship, with 25 000 of these people employed at the Annulus Space Port, simply to keep the port ready for her rearmament, repairs, refittings, resupply and to repopulate the crew if needed.
The Guardian Angels Chapter has agreed to station 10 Marines onboard as extra security and this team will be completely rerolled every five years, with overlapping changes of half the team every 2,5 years.
The ship's huge frame, makes 'The Black Pearl' the second largest ship in the Eden Sector, and her advanced technology defines her as one of the best Imperial Navy ship within the Sector as well.
It has been planned for her to patrol the Sector's many shipping routes, but the Captain and his counsel now speak of traveling to the Eastern front where they wish to support the Fleet of the Angels against the Tyranid incursion.
The Mechanicus have naturally wildly objected to this change in plans, while the Navy still has not commented.
As for the Guardian Angels Chapter, the Chaptermaster has welcomed the offer of support, but holds that for now the ship should continue its testing runs and serve out a term as a patrol ship before considering other duties.

CHAPTER SENDS PRELIMINARY FORCE TO THE EASTERN FRONT
March 01. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.163.9.2.
Third, Fourth and Fifth Companies left for the Eastern Front today, where they will set up supply stations and a front base in the battle against the Tyranid invasion.
This force will also set up the Ramilies class starfort: "Patria Nostra".
The Chapter is expected to be fighting alongside the Ultramarines in some of the battles along the eastern frontier, near Ultramar.
The main Battle force here is primarily set up to fight Tyranids, but it is expected that other enemies will be encountered as well. - Especially Orks, as the Ork menace has increased greatly here over the last years. - A few warbands of marauding Pirates and Chaos forces may also be in the path of the companies, so the forces are prepared for all of these.
Due to his extensive knowledge and experience with the Tyranid Xenos Genus, The Battle Force, which has been given the name: "Battle Force Georgii", will be lead by Commander of Fourth Company's "Daniel D'Angelo".

EIGHTH COMPANY REPORTS THAT THE IMPERIAL
CRUSADE
IS MAKING HEADWAY AT NESTIR V
February 27. 2009 - Imperial Record
1.156.9.2.
After over a year of fighting, the Imperial Crusade within the Nestir system, have finally defeated the enemy fleet, and cast the Arch-enemy out of the Hive cities.
following their defeat within the Hive City: 'Primus', the enemy fled into the planet's extensive sub-terrainian world and are currently being hunted by the Imperials.
Taking the cities, the Imperial Crusade has defeated the enemy, freed the planet's citizens and started emergency repairs to the planetary infrastructure.
A memorial service and celebrative ceremony followed the Imperium's defeat of their enemies within the Hive's, as this marks a long fought for victory in the war.
Still, there may be some trouble left within the Nestir system, as the Imperial Guard General Storm Hawkin Frost brought some troubling facts to light.
The enemy is not yet defeated and the threat they pose to the Nestir sub-sector seems much greater now that General Storm has reported on her findings.

Campaign
within the Nestir System can be found here.
