Ovation 9-3 unbetaed
Added 2020-12-31 07:50:48 +0000 UTCMy dear friend,
I was reorganising recently my collections in the galleries of the M35 period, and in particular the extensive artefacts recovered during the Battle of [REDACTED], when I happened to notice a copious manuscript written by your hand that happened to fall into my possession.
Now, let it not be said that I am an unjust Collector - and I also happen to have three Crypteks bound for the next millennia redacting the tale of the Cataclysm wrought by Operation Stalingrad - I return it to you as a end-of-millennia present.
Oh, and if you could send me a few more Eldar blades to compensate for the latest Harlequin incursion, I would be deeply grateful.
Tell our mutual friend the plagues of the abominations will soon abate and that the darkness is only a fleeting moment before apotheosis of purpose.
I will wait for you at [REDACTED]!
Trazyn the Infinite Collector, Chief Archeoevist of the Solemnace Galleries, Master of Collections, Acting-Triarch

2021-01-27 02:40:47 +0000 UTCNo, I at least I don't think so. Will have to check with my beta and canon-expert. I admit it would be a great moment of awesome after which all surviving enemies promptly scream in terror...

2021-01-18 16:27:24 +0000 UTCHi, can Vista bend space in your story (magnifying glass) so that it can use solar rays as a laser / microwave weapon? Her range should be enough for this, if the planet just has daylight. If so, then that would be a great WTF moment in a later chapter ^^

2021-01-18 14:55:13 +0000 UTCVortigern von Drenthe the Eighth just sad he could not join in on the betting. Looks like the ruler of Nyx is going to have to send out the call for reinforcements. The problematic, well now slave got his just rewards. He knew slavery at the hands of the C-tan and all that crap ahead of time yet he helps it happens anyway. There a point where you let the revolution happen for the good of everything.

2021-01-01 19:13:51 +0000 UTChappy New Year! And no, Taylor hasn't had an Army Group on hand. This was exactly the point she made when the Inquisition asked for significant firepower to crush the Orks. The only 'Army Group' on hand is her swarm of insects...which to be sure is very, very dangerous, but suffers from several drawbacks (mainly that it can't really function without her at the helm).

2021-01-01 08:10:29 +0000 UTCHappy New Year! thanks for the congratulations!

2021-01-01 08:08:26 +0000 UTCHappy New Year, Antony. Regarding the new chapter, I must think that Taylor may have already built up her Army Group right now otherwise in the next chapter, she would be sorely outmatched, outgunned and her army would be less than the Army she brought to Pavia. Did she already rebuild it? I also would like to think that she took Cypher seriously and asked the most of Guilliman's progeny to help her "greet" Lorgar in the Ymga Monolith.

2020-12-31 17:34:16 +0000 UTCThanks and Happy New Year!
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:33:58 +0000 UTCSee the good side, all this sum of tens of thousands of words of reading...
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:33:46 +0000 UTCThanks, and no, it isn't good for Missy, not good at all...especially when she hasn't a boyfriend.
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:33:10 +0000 UTCHappy New Year! Don't worry the bases of the Operation will be explained in 8-4.
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:32:37 +0000 UTCAh I suppose I understand the principle of birthday better now (grin)...Thanks and Happy New Year!
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:32:11 +0000 UTCI will, thanks.

Antony444
2020-12-31 17:31:21 +0000 UTCOh yes, the Silent King isn't going to be pleased by Orikan 'initiative'...in fact words like pleased might light-years away to what he really feels...
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:31:07 +0000 UTCWishes much appreciated, thanks. As for the omakes, we will see...
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:30:17 +0000 UTCYou're welcome.
Antony444
2020-12-31 17:29:50 +0000 UTCAmazing chapter as always, Antony :) I wish you a Happy Birthday and New Year!

2020-12-31 15:42:09 +0000 UTCHappy birthday and have a happy new year! Loved the chapter - I NEED to know what Operation Stalingrad is.

2020-12-31 12:53:02 +0000 UTC"The Imperium as it stands today is more and more working in spite of the Administratum’s efforts to sabotage it, not because the scribes do a good job.” I have olny one thing to say here: "Guilliman, wake up, you are needed!!!"
Boris Michenski
2020-12-31 12:50:19 +0000 UTCAll I can imagine is the sheer carnage implied here. I mean we have Necron Super-fleet incoming; we have a VERY large WAAGH incoming too. Not to mention the Word Bearers are already mustering. Don't know about you, but I can only imagine the aftermath of a FOUR WAY WAR is currently incoming. The Diviner might end up wishing he stays as a 'permanent' guest of Trazen; if his actions end up tearing the heart of the Monolyth's defenses loose, the Silent King would likely pull him apart molecule by molecule the next time he sees him!!!!

2020-12-31 12:01:19 +0000 UTCHappy birthday to you, happy birthday, happy birthday to you youngling, as part of my gift to you i am making the first of four Omakes ready for you so you can have it tonight or tomorrow.

Antony444
2020-12-31 11:06:28 +0000 UTCHappy birthday and a Happy New Year! May the coming year be better than 2020. The coming battle is going to be a huge mess and it will be interesting to see the fallout from it. Still it will be interesting to see who is going to be invited to this one since they could not join the fun at Commorragh.

2020-12-31 10:41:37 +0000 UTCThanks for all the compliments! Oh, be careful about your assumptions...though the first POV of Ovation 9-4 will unveil what the Necron-Human have in mind to stop the Throne of Oblivion.
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:39:06 +0000 UTCHa! Ha Ha! Continue speculating...
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:38:08 +0000 UTCYes, this year ends (once again) with my birthdays!
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:37:51 +0000 UTCThank you very much!
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:37:30 +0000 UTCThanks a lot!
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:37:22 +0000 UTCYou're welcome.
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:37:09 +0000 UTCYes, it is a typo. Was discarded but for some reason, Word didn't suppress it when I asked it to...
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:37:00 +0000 UTCThanks!
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:36:31 +0000 UTCAh, sorry...well I'm not going to reupload the chapter for a minor detail like this. Often I write other possibilities, things I might make use or have their importance, but which are rejected. this was one of these things which I didn't end up cancelling.
Antony444
2020-12-31 10:36:22 +0000 UTCHappy birthday to you and Happy New Year! Well… that escalated quickly. So, apparently Operation Stalingrad will happen much sooner, and without Lorgar being anywhere close. And Oblivion Cegorath was warning against is also much closer than expected… So what should we expect – a coalition of Imperium, Eldars and non-too-Imperialistic Necrons against the guard of Throne of Oblivion? With probably orks thrown into the mix for more atmosphere. Is Alethiometer related to the fact that Gavreel (crash)landed on Wuhan in the first place? And Rokossovsky is here! That makes me happy! Thanks once again for your great work!
Boris Michenski
2020-12-31 10:09:31 +0000 UTCUm Antony, you might want to check the bottom of the document as there is a line of text saying ‘Ultramarine POV - Calth schematics’ after the Author’s Notes section
