Multiple Kill Team operations occurred on Shannon's Reach planet in Perdus Rift.
A Rogue Trader ship descended from skies on this villanous planet. It seemed like the best place to make some shady deals happen, far away from the eyes of the Imperium or the T'au. The noble captain Cedrick had a squad of Scions as his personal army and even managed a deal with few Space Wolves to guard both him and his precious cargo. But those Astartes did not know a thing about Cedrick's true intentions or that he was recently proclaimed a xeno-loving heretic by the Imperium.
Space Wolves were tasked to guard Cedrick's ship and in the meantime, Cedrick took his Scions and his precious cargo to meet with his secret ally - the Farsight Enclaves - to unleash their vicious plan, for his cargo was an ancient technology beacon, something that should interfere with Ethereals influence on people's minds according to Cedrick's research. Farsight emissaries gladly accepted, paid Cedrick in some collected imperial credits and packed their newly acquired device to their Manta.
The ignorance of greed and maybe even the natural T'au naivity made everybody blind to the grim reality. The precious cargo, this ancient device, was in fact a Necron teleportation beacon. The Manta did not even managed to take-off.
As the Manta's engines started to power up, something drained their energy. Suddenly its cargo started to shiver and glow with menacing green light. Before the Farsight's warriors took a breath, several Necron Immortals teleported on the ship and started an absolute carnage. Few Fire Warriors in stealth suits managed to flee from the Manta and once they regroupped, they attacked back to reclaim their ship. Although their fight was quite close, the Necrons managed to rout them and secure the area around the teleporter.
On the way back to his ship, Cedrick found out, that were not guarding his ship as their were tasked and they were nowhere to be found. Because of that the local Dark Eldar took his crew hostage, hoping they would exchange them (ofcourse after a little pain-fun) for some Imperial access codes. Cedrick ordered his Scions to shoot them on the spot. Although the initial firefight were mostly in favour of the Scions, once the agile gladiatoresses from Commoragh caught their special weapon gunners in melee, it was over as there is no escape from the Wych's thighes once they lock them around your neck, even though you hold a plasma gun. However there was a great moment of heroism as one Scion with impressive mustache after absolutely failing with his grenade, redemeed himself as he held one wing of the battlefield all by himself, cleverly hiding from charging Wyches and carefully taking out Kabalites with his trusty hot-shot lasgun. Only thanks to him, the Scions managed to withdraw with at least some force and get Cedrick to safety.
Meanwhile a drop pod of Black Templars fell from the sky. They were looking for Cedrick for embezzlement of imperial property, xeno-heresy and even stealing from the Adeptus Mechanicus. As they tracked him, they found squad of Space Wolves drinking in local pub. Firstly an argument about incompetence quickly escalated into a brawl. After they took their fight out of the space port to settle the argument in proper combat. Space Wolves got beaten fair and square and the Black Templars followed tracks of Cedrick's Scions, while Space Wolves returned to his ship.
Once the Space Wolves came back to the space port, the only thing they found was a Drukhari party excited beyond control by the carnage from previous fight. Their sadism still not satiated as the Scions managed to escape, without questions the Wyches charged their new target. Space Wolves, still a bit drunk and out of form after getting beaten by the Black Templars, got quite surprised by the Eldar speed and ferocity, not even one was left standing in a matter of minutes. Poor Astartes were all brutally killed or skinned alive to be rearranged as fancy lamp shades.
Meanwhile the Necrons teleporting on the planet via the ancient device got ambushed by an unexpected foe. Local Genestealer Cults felt a disturbance in their hive connection and went looking for the source. They were lead by a skilled leader known as Tschwacht, who faced Necrons before and knew very well how to deal with them. His Neophytes managed to sabotage the ancient technology and deny the Necrons any reinforcements, then they hunted the living metal abominations to a last.
The Black Templars continued on their pursuit. They found the rest of the Scions and Cedrick hidden in abandonded facility near the space port patching their wounds. The Scions tried to take positions too hastily, forgetting they have time to shoot the Templars with their heavy guns before they charge them with chainswords, which appeared to be the road to their grave. Astartes closed distance quickly and chopped through the Scions like they were butter making their way to Cedrick. Once they captured him, the Scions left the battlefield and runned for their life.
The Drukhari were still not properly satiated as their taste for violence only grew with each drop of blood that hit their faces. Few Ork Commandos just chilling in the port thinking about some future cunnin' plans suddenly saw the carnage and rushed to take part in some fun.
"Oi, oi, oi, what goin' on 'ere?" shouted the Nob and turned on his Power Klaw. "Look, lads, pointy-eared gals 'ave some fancy teef, don't they? Let's git some!"
"I will pierce my nipple with your tusk, greenskin!" Smiled the Hekatrix viciously in sadistic ecstasy which seemed to never end.
The following fight was long and bloody indeed. Both sides had a lot of fun, being unnecessary brutal with dynamites, blasters and especially in melee. However, the Hekatrix failed terribly trying to kill two Orks at once as she grew cocky after previous two enemy groups and she got killed by a Dakka Boy's gun butt. In the end, only three Kabalites were left standing, human, astartes and ork blood splashes mixing on their purple armors. Only luck kept them alive this time and they, finally satiated, left the place of carnage in such peace of minds like they did not have in a long time.
The remaining Scions returned to the space port hoping they can finally leave the planet so hostile to them. However, they did not expect that right after the Black Templar a squad of Battle Sisters dropped to the planet to investigate Cedrick's shady deals. Once the nuns with guns recognized the red berets on Scion heads, they opened fire. Although this time the traitors, knowing they definetely fight for the rest of their lives, fought the most unflaggingly, the Sisters managed to corner them and with great casualties (and martyrdom) finally shackle them all. Poor Scions left the planet in the end, but only to pay for their sins against the Emperor as arco-flagellants.
After all this carnage a group of Eldar Corsairs tried to return some peace to their space port. They tracked the Genestealer Cults, but walked directly into their trap. Although they managed to incapacite their infamous leader Tschwacht thanks to their superior speed and plasma grenades, they were not able to withstand the swarming Neophytes crawling from ground and shooting them point blank with their shotguns and grenade launchers. The Cults took their revenge and wiped the Corsair group in few moments.
