1st Battle for Oddball

WAAAGH! Morzzag entered orbit over this unknown world to find that it help no strategic, material, or even combative value. Preparing to leave, Morzzag's ship detected the telltale signs of Adeptus Mechanicus forces on the planet; and not just any Mechanicus forces, Ostraxos' forces. Suddenly, all systems were engaged in preparation for battle. This planet now held some value; a backdrop for Morzzag and Ostraxos to yet again face each other.

Commanding from the front, Morzzag's forces met Ostraxos' amid some ruins. The fighting was grueling both sides suffering heavy casualties, all while their war machines amazingly repaired themselves. The fighting came down to the thinnest of wires, when the control of valuable strategic sites almost brought the WAAAGH! to its knees on this world. Outflanked by some strategic reserves, a single mob of shoota boys endured an endless rain of gunfire. Many of this mob died, some fled; but the site was held by a single Ork boy. Perhaps brave, or perhaps foolish; this lone Ork held his ground long enough for reinforcements from orbit to arrive and force Ostraxos to quit the field.

Morzzag was furious that he did not get to meet his rival in single combat, but the war was far from over.
