The motorcade proceeded, but it a few minutes later a deafening roar filled the air. Through the buildings, Terminus could see the destroyer had began to dip dangerously low, half of it's thruster seemed to have overloaded, and the remaining ones were doing their best to compensate for the loss. A few seconds later, there was a massive explosion on the hull of the ship and multiple blue energy streak flee out of it, winding through the air with seemingly no direction. It took Terminus a few seconds for him to realize the blue streaks were in fact ignited torpedos. The first few smashed into buildings and caused a massive explosion, igniting the air. More shot out of the now visible gaping hole on the side of the ship and Terminus deduced that the explosion had occured in the ship's armory. The ship itself was now falling decending at a slow pace, clipping the sides of building. Screams filled the air, followed by the concusive boom of more torpedos smashing into other parts of the city.

The Arbiter looked at Lyida "Well these are very sacred weapons, Only used by the best of the best. But the fail rate has until this point been non exi-" He was cut off seeing the ship he grabbed his com as fast as he saw that explosion "I Need you to stop that ship NOW!" The Arbiters massive ship dipped down into the atmosphere, But the Covenant ships were designed for this. The Covenant ship then flew beside the area were the torpedoes were firing from "FULL POWER TO ENGINES AND SHIELDS!" The shipmaster yelled, And with that the Arbiters ship started doing its best to block anymore torpedoes from escaping, Then the Arbiters ship locked a tractor beam to hold the ship in place "I want engineers over there! Find out what happened and help in anyway you can!" And with that some elites set off with engineers "Attention vessel, What happened? Is your core stable?" The Shipmaster asked as the engineers flew over to the ship and began to start trying to stabilize the ship with their regenerative abilities

((The Engineer, Also called Huragok ))

The Arbiter contacted the UCP Ambassador's "What happened? Does this accident happen often or do you think it was a terrorist attack?" When he said that the grunt took out his Needler and the Jackal took out his Plasma Pistol. Clearly they were worried about that thought. The Grunt shivered at another thought "Or FLOOD..." The grunt turned to the group "The FLOOD is a practically unstoppable force, It infects anything that has half a brain cell and uses its BIO MASS to make it more intelligent and smarter, They use are own weapons and knowledge against us. You cant kill it! Not without making sure you wipe out every last spore of it! Or I twill simply infect a dead person or infect one that is alive!" The Grunt said panicked, The Arbiter looked troubled, It appeared as if even though he was a honorable and extraordinary warrior, He too feared these creatures

Joe tapped something on his wrist, and a blue holo-screen appeared. "Gale! Send S&R VS' now!"
"What? This is a peace mission Joe, why do yo-"
"Gale, send them now! People are dying!"
Small rockets broke through the atmosphere, landing just at the outskirts of the city. Human shaped large robots stepped out. They were tan in color, and blinking orange and blue lights on top. Thy had no heads, instead their torso's were round, each containing an engineer controlling it. They saw through cameras installed on the outside of the Vital Suits. They had clunky arms, full of gears for heavy lifting. They began a sprint, going about 20 miles per hour towards the city. Small closed in chairs were on the higher part of their legs on each side, for transporting injured soldiers and/or civilians. "I sent out Search and Rescue Vital Suits." He said, closing the holo-screen. "There might not be much to save, but they will find what they can."

Lydia sat there staring for several moments as what she saw sank in "Sh-she's falling..." before snapping back and pulling a comm unit from her jacket "Virtue! send all fighters down here to help keep those torpedo's in check along with whatever they can or use AIC's to help keep that ship from going anywhere. W-w-we'll need m-medical personnel for any wounded. S-send everything...hurry."

Of course everything was being monitored and the fighters already launching as medical crews tossed trauma bags into the other two shuttle. It was only a small group of eight craft but better then nothing.

She felt sick...

Emergency services were already reponding. Twelve wheeled fire engines and ambulances were escorted by police hovercraft to the largest sites in order to put out the fires before they spread and get the injured to the hospital. In orbit, a Carrier, the UCS Vigilant, entered the upper most part of the atmosphere. The Coalition carriers were huge, each carrying around six hundred smallcraft of various functions, ranging for fighters to troop tranports. Once it sucessfully entered the atmosphere, fighters began to be shot off it's flight deck by a magnetic catapult. Once those fighters secured the skies, the carrier then deployed it's compliment of VTOL craft to supplement the resuce effort. Also, military forces were flooding the city from nearby bases. They began setting up roadblocks fighter jets took off from a nearby airstrip to close off the skies. If this was a terrorist attack, they would no longer by able to leave.

A static filled message answered the shipmaster's hail. "This is... Lieutenant Deraal... Command crew... Dead... Core... unstable... Engineering working... Ejecting it..." What the Lieutenant was refering to was the ability for all Coalition vessels abilities to eject thier warp cores, the primary source of power on the ship. Sure enough, a minute later, a small portion of the top of the ship opened and the main part of the core was shot upwards at an arc as to avoid the carrier hovering directly above the city. It resembled an ancient ICBM and exploded in the upper atmosphere. However, without it's primary powersource, the ship's remaining thrusters began to flicker and die.

The Covenant ship diverted power from shields to tractor beams and power from weapons into engines. The ship then began to compensate for the dead weight it was now carrying and the Shipmaster hailed the Lieutenant "Can you ship survive a trip through the atmosphere?" Shipmaster knew that it would not put any strain on the ship if they were in space. He then put another transmission out "Was this an attack or an accident?" The Shipmaster knew that if this was an attack he would nee to launch boarding parties to protect the Covenant Engineers who were healing injured crew and fixing systems that were in critical condition

---

The Arbiter knew that the odds of torpedoes activating by themselves were astronomical. either there would have to have been a very strong heat source, Or an explosion. Otherwise someone would have had to activate those torpedoes remotely or manually. And it was possible that terrorists wanted it to look like an accident. The Arbiter turned to the Group "Be on alert, There may be a chance this was not an accident" the explosions caused the Covenant to scramble all their invasion solders to drop-ships ready in the event of a terrorist attack. The Arbiter had energy shielding that could recharge, But the Deacon and the Jackal Ambassador only had Helmets that would block one head shot, But after that one shot those helmets would be useless. The Arbiter put on his energy Gauntlets and the Grunt and Jackal had their weapons ready in the event the Wraith was attacked

((P.S, ITS MEEEEEEE ))

"Negative." The Lieutenant replied. "The ship has barely any power and structural integrity is below ten percent. Trying to ascend to orbit will kill everyone on board and cause the ship to fall apart. We're evacuating everyone onboard. Once that's done, it would be safer to tractor the ship to the surrounding countryside and let it crash where it can't hurt anyone else." The Lieutenant hesitated when the Shipmaster asked if it was an attack. "That can not be determined at this time..."

---

Terminus, his officers and the security team stepped out of their vehicles with their weapons drawn. The road ahead was blocked by debris from a stray torpedo and they had received orders to stay where they were until reinforcements arrived. "Secure this position!" Termiuns ordered, his men and women did as they were told, though they did not have anything better than a pistol. The ambassador was still inside his car for his protection.

Termiuns was looking towards where the destroyer was, trying to see the extent of the damage when a charged bullet whistled past his head. He spun around just as one of the security officers cried out, "Contact!"

A group of about twenty armed men in civilian clothing were pouring out of a nearby building, firing their weapons at the group. Terminus ducked behind one of the cars as a stream of bullets flew past him. "Return fire!" He yelled. Both APCs turned their machine guns onto the approaching hostiles. Within seconds a full fledged gun battle had erupted in the street.

(I should've have known it was you, Chris! )

Joe jumped out of the Covenant vessel. He ran over to Terminus, his steps wide and long. "Should I send Vital Suits prepared for battle?" He asked as he approached. "Most of my Search and Rescue Vital Suits are prepared for extensive pressure, they could get up close to the targets if necessary." He was a big man, obviously scarred in various places. Of course the most notable part of him was his missing right lower leg. "We could send Pack Hunters, flush them out."

The Arbiter saw the gun shots and jumped out of the Wraith, He then activated his duel energy swords that flew out of his gauntlets. He then ran at the enemy. The Arbiter knew his energy shields would deflect a good amount of shots before they went down. The Arbiter ran past Terminus and Joe and ran out at the gun men "YOUR HERESY WILL BE PAYED IN BLOOD!!!" The Arbiter said swinging at the gun men.

Phantom and Spirit drop-ships began landing on the Lieutenants ship helping with the evacuation, And the Engineers were helping in keeping the ship in one piece for as long as they could, However, The ships were also dropping off Elite Spec Ops. Special forces with Active Cameo, Making them un-detectable if they move slowly.

The Grunt held his Needler tight and tried to look brave "Don't worry! We wont let anyone get you guys! Right Jackal Buddy?" The Jackal looked annoyed and said things not translatable. The grunt smacked the Jackal in the back of the head "HAY! You no talk to are new friends like that!"

((The Spirit Drop-Ship The Elite Spec Ops ))

Just outside of scanning range of the covenant ships a large ork fleet gathered. The ork fleet consisted of ork 'killa kroozers', ork rok's and ork battle ships. The ships looked like they had been put together with scrap metal and broken cruisers which they were. In fact no one actually knew how they flew in space since they are literally poorly welded together and tied together. The fleet and it's ships were a combination of gray, black and red colored. The orks painted their ships red for the same reason they pain there gear red they think it will make them move faster. However despite their rather poor and stuiped behavior they are some of the deadliest forces in the universe. After all with tens of thousands of orks in a small army they can and will over whelm most forces. But this was a waaagh and so it had hundreds of thousands to millions of orks. A war is basically a large gathering of orks for the purpose of waging war. This particular ork waaagh was lead by powerful ork warlord Gorgritz da umie unter. He was a massive eight foot tall ork with strong power armor which gave him protection as well as a machine gun on his right arm and a power claw on his left. He had one of his eyes removed and a red scanner like lens on his right eye. This allowed him to detect heat signatures and see through primitive cloaking technology. Residing in a large rok he prepared to launch a assault on Nova Primus. The rok was a large asteroid the orks hollowed out and filled with tens of thousands of orks, gretchins and sometimes massive squigoths. They had powerful thrusters to literally though them at planets. "There are a lot of umies and other things to kill. So boyz are you ready to get this waaagh into the action and start the killin of dem other folks?" Gorgritz said to a massive group of orks and gretchins. The orks cheered roaring as they raised their axes and big shootas. "WAAAGH!" Was heard being screamed. "Well let's get this started then boyz. Fly us into their planet and let's start fightin." Gorgritz said to a lone gretchin. "Agh yes sir." The small four foot gretchin said running off to start the engines of the massive ship. Within three minutes a total of six massive ork rok's will collide with the surface releasing thousands of orks and the green tide will consume all the people on the planet withing a few days. But there will be nearly fifty ork battle cruisers ready to fight in space as well.

"Sir, we're detecting an approaching war fleet."

"composed of?" The Admiral asked.

"Fifty-six vessels, fifty are battle-cruiser type vessel, six are massive vessels of unknown design. The six ships are on a collision course to Nova Primus. The battle-cruisers are combat ready." Reported the sensors officer.

"Well, that settles it." The Admiral said gruffly. "Go to Condition Red, and have all ships move to intercept. Send a call to fleets in nearby systems to assist. Activate the Unity Protocol."

The Unity Protocol was formed after the Coalition's first major galactic war, where Nova Primus was almost conquered by invaders. When the Protocol is initiated, fifty of the Coalition 100 star fleets were to warp to Nova Primus no matter what while the other half would protect the borders and home worlds.

It only took a for ships to start warping into orbit from the nearby star systems. Soon the entirety of the twelve star fleets that had been garrisoned here would arrive. As for the remaining thirty eight, it would take hours and possibly days for them to arrive, but the Admiral was content, 120,000 ships from the star fleets were enough to easily outnumber the Ork ships, however, he did not know how durable the battle-cruisers were and had a feeling that they were aiming for a ground invasion then a prolonged space battle, though that wasn't his immediate problem.

"All vessels, lock on and fire all weapons at the six largest ships. Let see how many we can knock out before they hit Nova Primus."

In space, the fleet opened fire with every weapon they had. Beams, cannon fire, pulses from turrets and torpedoes flew through the void towards the new enemy with support fire from the starbase itself and the dozens of Orbtal Defense Platforms, though the Ork Roks had yet to enter range of their primary weapons.

Terminus looked at Joe. "Yeah, definitely. We need to hold out long for our evac to arrive." Suddenl;y there was a loud BOOM nearby and one of the APCs went up in flames as it got hit by an anti-vehicle RPG. Terminus cursed and shot at the hostile carrying the weapon that did the damage. Not only that, but several civilian vans had arrived and even more enemies piled out of them.

"And make it fast, Mr. Butcher!"

The Arbiter kept cutting down enemies as they came. The Arbiter heard the Augustus talking about enemy ships in orbit, He ran to cover to let his shield recharge and to use his com "Grand Fleet Master, Lets give are new guests a warm welcome!" then thirty one large purple vessels decloaked and started charging up their bottom cannons, The Glassing Beam used to level planets, This would only work once as this was a sneak attack and they would not let the Covenant get above them otherwise. The Ships fired their Glassing beams at the ships on a collation course with the planet. They also fired their Plasma Torpedoes at the Enemy fleet The Arbiter contacted a few ships "Yuu might be able to stop a few of those large ships, But not all of them! Start launching troopers NOW!" all the ships started launching swarms of drop-ships and Banshee and Seraph star fighters to guard them, Though the Drop-Ships had weapons as well The Arbiter had heard of this species before while looking through a Forerunner data facility. They were one of the DNA chips saved during the Halo Ring's Activation long ago.

Joe held up his wrist device again. "Gale! War! Send TM-VS' now!" Within minutes, tens of black oddly shaped flying Vital Suits broke through the atmosphere, heading for the enemy lines. A mix of bullets and energy shots filled the air.

Tactical Movement Vital Suit:

The rok's heading for the planet would take a pounding from the planets defenders but out of the six three would make it there in one piece including Gorgritz's but two would be destroyed raining ork filled 'rok' all over the planet. But the last one would fall off course and hit near the planetary defenses. The orks killa kruzzas would engage the enemy in space why the ground battle would get even more brutal. Gorgritz and his rok landed north of the main city but the other two landed south and south east. Gorgritz charged out of his rok with a squad of nobs and thousands of other orks including; shoota boyz, slugga boyz, rokkit boyz, gretchins and nobs came out in hordes. The orks would turn the crashed rok into a nearly impenetrable fortress. The gretchins and orks staying behind would build gun turrets and mechs. Gun turrets would be placed all over the rok and inside it and around the crash site. The mechs and other vehicles were a few dozen wartrukks and killa kans. The orks came out and were face to face with many covenant troops. The gretchins and grunts were about the same height but the gretchins used machetes and guns resembling human revolvers while the grunts used plasma weapons. Gorgritz would come face to face with a powerful squad of brutes. But his nobs took on the minors he fought with the hero. The brute hero charged him with his gravity hammer. Gorgritzs grabbed the hammers handle and broke it in two. The enraged brute roared before slamming into Gorgritz with it's strong body. But Gorgritz being built like a tank grabbed him by his waist with his power claw and broke the brute in half. "Waaagh!" He screamed covered in brute and grunt blood. "Dese guys are a good fight." Said one of the nobs. " We needz to charge the city dats were all the good fights will be." Gorgritz said as the last of the covenant in the area were killed and wartrukks filled with orks and killa kans began waddling towards the city.

Soon after the orks left their roks, they are blasted by Coalition missile artillery. Cruise missiles shot from up to thousand kilometers away hit the ork forces, fired from missile sites and even a few naval vessels located in the sea a few hundred miles away. They didn't need to get close to the rock, choosing instead to pound it with Artillery that was located miles away.

Aircraft from the carrier and airbases were scrambled and began bombing the orks while gunships took off, carrying guns up to 144mm onboard and were in the process of training them on the orcs and firing. However, no ground forces went out to meet them, they instead remained well within the city limits and had begun fortifying their positions. Machine gunner nest were set up and snipers where placed on the tallest building. Tanks and APCs sercured themselves and train all their weapons down the street. They were evacuted cilivian and set up force fields on the major streets. Barbed wire, sand bags, and tank spike were used to seal off roads and anti-air batteries were set up near the center of the city. The plan was to funnel the much larger orc forces into one main street, where the military wouldn't need to fight them all at the same time, negating the advantage of their superior numbers. The military commandeered the space and air ports and began moving in supplies from the more vunerable bases nearby. In reality, the city was being converted into a massive fortress.

In orbit, those fifty orcs ships were now being blasted at by around 120,000 ships, with more arriving after fifteen minutes, not counting the Covenant fleets. They were supported by the remaining ODPs and the starbase.

"All vessels." The Admiral said over the fleet channel. "Destroy those battle-cruisers as quick as possible, then all ships that are capable of orbital bombardments are to enter low orbit and let loose on their forces."

---

As the Tactical Vital Suits arrived, a Coalition dropship flew low over the street.

"That's our ride!" Terminus called over the noise of it's engines. The Ambassador had left the car and was already headed to it while a squad of Coalition Marines in full combat gear jumped out and began advancing to the unknown attackers, supporting the Arbitar and Vital Suits.

The Arbiter saw the vehicle then at the battle "I must go and support my men!" The Arbiter said as a phantom landed near the Arbiter, The bottom turret blasting the unknown men who came out of the building and then the Arbiter jumped inside of it and began advancing to the forward lines "Bring down the vehicle support!" The Arbiter yelled

More drop-ships landed near the Orks, But this time in greater numbers and they had vehicles with them. Then Arbiter jumped down and Activated his energy shield and his duel plasma Blades "YOUR HEARCY WILL BE YOUR DOWN FALL!!" Tee Arbiter yelled and covenant charged them, using weapons that fired purple crystals, Plasma, The brute weapons fired spikes and the Needle rifles and Needlers would blow up a target if enough of them collected close enough. The Arbiter began his rage and started cutting down the smaller orks with ease, The Brute Chieftans, Heroes, Elite Spec ops and Zealots were up their with the arbiter, Gravity Hammers when they strike the ground will cause a small gravity pocket to form in the strike zone, Crushing the foe with gravity. The Energy sword were just that. Pure Plasma Energy meaning they could not be blocking by anything aside from other forms of energy. The Wraiths Plasma Mortars and Plasma Cannons started firing wildly at the Enemy. Along with the Ghosts running over people and shooting them down. Spectre's and Revenants also firing, And A new Covenant life form known as "The Hunters" Were attacking with their assault cannons and Assault Beams. Brute Choppers and Prowlers were also attacking, With Choppers having spinning blades for running people down.

The Covenant ships were quite large ships so they held up well, But they could not take out all of them The Grand Fleet Master knew that there home world had thousands of ships, But they would take to long. He then got an idea "Signal High Charity and the Prophet of Regret! Tell him we need him to divert high charity and his fleet here!" High Charity was a massive Mobile ship, Well more of a station but mobile none the less. The Covenant ships were firing their Uber Shade Turrets at the Enemy ships and their Plasma Torpedoes. The Banshee's and Seraphs using their weapons on the guns of the enemy ships, And when they were near destruction they would attempt to do a suicide bomb into the Enemy ships

((A Ghost, The main scout unit. But with duel Plasma Cannons and a fast engine for running people down makes it deadlier than most scout class units, Often driven by Brutes, Grunts or Elites The Spectre has the driver canopy and two side seats for others to shoot out of, Along with a Plasma Beam Turret at the top The Brute Prowler, With one driver and one gunner, It can alos carry two troops on the side The Brute Chopper, With spinning blades on the inside for a front wheel with thrusters on the side it is nearly impossible to tip over, It also has two side mounted Auto-Cannons The Revenant is a weaker, But Faster Version of the Wraith, But instead of a mounted Plasma Turret it has a side seat for allies to shot their weapons from The Wraith is a special kind of Artillery, Its turret can aim in all directions rather than up and down, Its not as powerful as most artilleries, But its Speed, Mounted Plasma Turret and Special aiming make up for that. The Hunters always come in pairs, The Regular Hunters fire Beams of plasma, While the Gold ones fire more powerful Assault bursts. they are almost unkillable in the front, In the back their are Parts of the body exposed, But it would still take quite a bit of fire power to kill the hunter in the back The Elite Zealot, A High Ranking Elite with more powerful Energy shields then regular Elites High Charity, Along with its fleet of ships ))

Each one of the ork rok's began to fall under constant missile fire. But the incredibly think metal and rock armor would endure most attacks with ease. The ork fortresses were holding up and setting up huge amounts of strong ork vehicles. Some stray missiles got inside the walls and did some damage. But the orks were starting to shoot down a good portion of the missiles with their turrets manned by gretchins. But in one of these roks three incredibly big and incredibly powerful and durable squiggoths were being prepared for war. The squiggoths were massive dinosaur like creatures with powerful artillery guns on their backs capable of destroying a tank in a single shot. They also had two smaller machine guns either side fired by orks in the large transport shell shell on it's back. They were in the south rok and were ready to be sent to the city. After all with their powerful horns and jaws capable of even eating and crushing the armor of a covenant hunter they would be conformable foes. However in space the ork fleet was not having much luck. They had destroyed a few enemy ships but were getting blasted in pieces. "Ah boss. Were gettin shot up." said a ork inside one of the kroozers. "Ah quiet your wining I have a plan." Said an ok nob in charge of the ship. "Weez gona ram em." He said to the orks. "Come on gretchin take us into a head on course with the biggest ship they have." "Rito boss." said a gretchin. The large ork ship with it's arrow like tip going at full speed guns blazing would destroy anything it collided into with a massive explosion of both ships. With that the ship went full speed ahead to the nearest capital ship it could see. Meanwhile on the planet Gorgritz and his band of ork boyz were slowly pushing their way towards the city. With hundreds of orks and gretchins dead Gorgritz was not worried as he had thousands more still. "Ah this is taking too long what you guys say we call in a squiggoth and let it tear down dese guys in our way?" Gorgritz said using his gun to press a button on his arm. At the ork rok a few kilometers from them one of the three massive squiggoths was ready for battle and so the orks released it to head to Gorgritz. The massive creature let out a hungry roar and began to stampede to Gorgritz killing anything in it's path either with the guns on it's back or it's feet crushing them.

Joe got in along with Terminus. The TMVS' flew through the air, at random times, they would change direction instantly. They would be moving to the left at around 40 meters per hour then suddenly be moving faster in the other direction. Joe shouted various things in another language into his wrist device. More Vital Suits dropped from the sky.

Dongo Gear:


GAH-41BSL:


GAN-36:


The now small army of various Vital Suits came into the battlefield, shooting a mix of bullets and energy bolts.

The ork ship smashed into a Coalition Carrier, the UCS Karakorum. The ship exploded in a brilliant light and caused light damage to a few nearby ships but their shields soaked up the burnt of the explosion. In reaction to this, the Coalition fleet closed in on the Ork vessels, entrapping them with tractor beams and firing to disable their engines. After all, carriers cost a lot to make and they rather not lose another one.

Parts of the Coslition fleet began to break off, considering the battle won, and prepared to bombard the ork roks from orbit. Small ships, such as frigates and destroyers entered the atmosphere and descended towards the field of battle acting as massive gunships, firing their beams and torpedoes into the ork armies..

Colonel Tedek wasn't very happy at the sight of the enroaching Ork army on the live sattelite feed in the makeshift command post set up near the defensive line. He was a Centaurion, blue skin, no ears and completely black eyes. His form was slender and nearly eight feet tall. That, and coupled with his bionic arm and leg, which he aquired after leading a particularly nasty campaign on the planet of Elno XI, added to his intimadating demeanor. He scowled at the data, before turning the a nearby lieutenant. "Tell the MATs to load up their Trinex shells and fire if those monsters get to here." He pointed towards the city limits, the ork forces a merely a few thousand meters from there. "Yes, sir." The lieutenant salited and ran out the Command Post to give the MATs, or Mobile Artillery Trucks, their orders. Trinex was a specific kind of airborne nanite. The nanite's sole purpose was to eat away at organic matter, be it animal, planet, or a microbe, and it would keep earing away unless told to stop. The MATs only had enough shells for a single barrage, pit it would be enough to leave a deadly cloud hanging between the city and the orcs.

---

When the spotters of the missile Artillery emplacements around the city began to report that the orcs had began to shoot down the cruise missiles, the artillery switched targets instead firing into the armies that were getting close to the city, and letting the ships that were arriving from orbit take care of the roks. Hypersonic Bombers began to carpet bomb the vanguard of the orcs, a few specifically target the squiggoth, or, as the pilots had jokingly nicknamed it, 'that ugly son of a gun'.

---

Terminus and what was left of the Coalition delegation jumped into the dropship, which took off once all were aboard, headed for the command post in order to arm themselves. At the moment, they grabbed assualt rifles, just in case the dropship was shot down. Oddly enough, it didn't seem that the orks valued air-superiority, considering no one had seen any ork aircraft. But Terminus was more interested in the strange men that had attacked, figuring the to command post might know something about it.

The Arbiter looked at the Dinosaur with an enraged looked. He started talking into his com in his native language, Then a Covenant ship flew near the planet. And two pods dropped down. Then they smashed into the ground near the orks, And two Massive walkers came out and began firing its Main Assault beam. These were the Covenant Super Unit, The Scarab Excavation Platform. Its main designed to mine the ground for artifacts, But this one was refitted for war. The two Scarabs began stepping on Orks and blasting them with their Main Assault beam, And in the event air support came in. The Scarabs Anti-Air turret began laying down fire "TOO BATTLE!" The Arbiter yelled and he and his men charged the enemy
