OOC:
Hahaha, holy crap this is moving fast haha! Will pay more attention from here on out. Glad I wasn't really needed!
Macho just is about to lift his weapon, but realizes that all of the enemies are dead.

"You say more bugs here?" He asked.

"I watch doors." He then said as he walked towards a nearby doorway and watches for anymore Tyranids.

Sister Olivia is struck dumb by the interchange between Sister Domitia and Sister Cassia. We're here to do His work, not to fight like cats on heat.

"Sister's, our weapons are functioning again by the grace of the .... Omnissiah", Sister Olivia dart's an appreciative glance at the party's Tech Priest before continuing, "Let us complete this mission, for the glory of the Sisterhood, for Saint Kodachi, and our father."

Without waiting for an order to do so, Sister Olivia stealthily heads towards the infernal darkness.

"Guards, do you have a source of illumination on you?"

Up ahead, Sister Sabathica stood, aiming her inferno pistols into the darkness ahead, scanning for targets as her fellow sisters squabbled. It was disappointing to see such dissent. She had expected it to come from outside of the holy order. Moreover, this was hardly the place for it. Thankfully it seemed over for the moment and the group began to move, and so did she..

"Forward!".

The Retributor duly follows, her heavy weapon ready.

The Novices in the Thunderhawk reply back, "Reading you Sister. Reporting Tyrannid threat protocols. If we see anything other than you exiting the Xeno ship we will release promethium bombs…"

The room lights up under the glare of helmet lights. Five empty cages with doors open and ten with creatures that are dead. You are not quite sure if the ten died from the crash or from the foul Xeno experiments. You see four of the foul Drukhari leaping from hiding and, from the darkness, a shot fires into Sister Dominita possibly hurting her badly but whatever fired is hiding and you can’t be sure how many are in hiding.
OOC:

10+1 ED damage to Dominita.

There are three Drukhari leaping into melee and two snipers. To attack a sniper you need to beat their stealth with awareness 8 and 7 respectively. Awareness is a free action.

1 Ruin used to seize initiative for the sniper. Feel free for everyone to post once and I will fill in between for the Drukhari.

Drukhari Sniper - (9d6+1d6)

Krondo exchanged glances between Sister Cassia and Sister Domitia's heated exchange. He never liked internal strife. Cogs and wheels should complement and aid itself rather than apply resistance and break their sacred function. He sighed, hoping that other sisters will deescalate this and bring normal coordination back. For an elite group of warriors, the sisters are surprisingly fiery headed when compared to well organised Skitarii cohort and Corpuscarii Priest ranks.

So, when the sisters advanced and got hit by unseen snipers, Krondo was not prepared for it. As the shot hit Sister Jurgena, Krondo screamed, "Enemy contact. Possible snipers; be careful, Sisters." He then saw 3 more Drukhari jump out to assault them. The situation was going out of hand. Krondo activated his Auger array with a binary chant and tried to see if the Auspex reading showed the enemy locations.

He then targeted one of the Drukhari that raised it's weapon to attack the Sister with his Galvanic carbine and fired.

OOC: Damn! I rolled a complication on my attack roll. Ballistic skill test has 3 successes. Awareness test has 4 successes. However, I am spending wrath to reroll the other dice. Great, I am glad that I rerolled, Awareness test has 11 Successes now. I know that Auspex scans was jammed outside the ship, but I don't know whether it is jammed inside also. I guess with those successes in Awareness, I am able to both the snipers.

OOC:
I would like to use my talent to spend 2 faith points and cause the attack to miss
"Flush them out like the rats they are!" The Retributor roars. She runs in front of the charing attacker, and lifts her monstruos multi-melta.
OOC:
I suffer 2DN because I don't have strenght 8, but thanks to Bulgin Biceps I ignore complications
The Retributor aims, and once again the high pitched scream of superheated air fills the room, as Sister Jurgena Domitia releases a burst of sun-hot air.

There is a moment when everyone is sure the Drukhari sniper ought to have hit Sister Dominita. Instead the shot ricochets off her holy ceramite armor. She proceeds to turn one of the melee combatants into a pile of ash.

One of the melee combatants reaches her though, his needle thin sword dripping with a greenish poison.

Krondo looks through his sights and sees both of the foul Xenos trying to hide. His carbine fires perfectly causing the Xeno to bleed, but the sight goes dark. He will not be as accurate until he repairs the sight.
OOC:

Krondo is -2DN to attacks until he succeeds at a repair roll
Dominita suffers 11 damage and must make a resilience test DN5 vs poison

"Die!", Sister Olivia yells as she aims her Storm Bolter at the Drukhari assaulting Sister Domitia and discharges it
OOC:
No point Sister Olivia rolling for awareness, she can't pass that test.

Cassia looks for cover once the snipers have been identified. Once she's found a place, she kneels next to it with her banner stood where everyone can see it. With the banner planted, she's free to use her boltgun again, and scans the area for an available target.
OOC:
Taking a movement action to find cover and using an action to plant my standard. With it planted, all Sororitas characters in 5m have +1 strength in melee, and all Imperial characters in 5m have +1 determination.

Sister Olivia’s Storm Bolter rips the Drukhari attacking Dominita into barely recognizable chunks. This does not prevent his the third melee combatant from trying to stab her with his poison blade.

Cassia unfolds her banner and, in response, she receives a shot from the other Drukhari in hiding.
OOC:

Olivia suffers 10 damage and must make a resistance DN5 test
Cassia is missed
Failure on these poison tests gives you -2 dice on rolls until you are cured

OOC:
@Ysolde Could you please confirm my understanding of current situation:
One enemy engaged with Olivia
One enemy still not moved
One enemy dead
Two enemies (snipers) made their moves and still have stealth scores of 8 and 7 despite they attacked

OOC:

Using my feature to roll investigate as free action
[ +- ] Deductive
Using
[ +- ] Ratling trait
to move as reflective action
Sniping from hiding in dark is something Bigby is proficient at and he is trying to deduce enemy position based on ricochet angle, sound of firing and his own logic of sniper best positioning
Meanwhile he is shooting at the melee fighters taking a careful aim taking cover under the table
OOC:
WOW 15 damage is probably an overkill this time and tests done with -2 penaly but scoring 11 and 10.

Bigby finishes off the last melee fighter, leaving only the two snipers hiding in the darkness.
OOC:

Just the two snipers left.
Also, only Krondo and anyone who fails their poison resistance should currently be at negatives to anything

I rolled attacks before I realized I don't know their defense. Plus I can never make an Awareness 7 roll with only 6 dice, right?

Macho, has stayed behind for too long and needs to be of some use to the group, the group needs to get an eye on those snipers.
OOC:
Is there anything around the group that I could grab and hold up for the group to use as some cover? What roll would you like me to make for that?

Macho grabs a few of the old cages and slams them together to make some improvised cover for the group. One of the snipers tries to snipe Macho but the newly improvised cover ensures that the Xeno misses.

Macho moves up with his with his new cover.

"Get behind! Kill them!" He shouts to the team behind him.
OOC:
Would like to move forward my full movement.
