Report

As our seers had foreseen there was an infestation of fleshbags on stardate 323032332d30322d3039. While our workers were restructuring (destroying) the primitive constructions outside the tomb gate a few swarms of bipedal fleshbags arrived in some vile and noisy ramshackle vehicles (if I may call them that) from the west. At once one of those ramshackle vehicles was destroyed by the Doomstalker that stood on guard. A swarm of fleshbags poured out of the wreck and started to shoot wildly with their ineffective beam weapons. Another transporter approached and out poured another small swarm, this one including a huge specimen. The worker scarabs approached the fleshbags to keep them away from the Doomstalker and maybe get a few genetic samples. The remaining transporter construction and the fleshbags spewed flames and laser beams on the scarabs and damaged a few of them. At the same time another swarm of fleshbags tried to sneak past the canopteks, but Manipulant Amarus was ever vigilant and chased them away with help of his cryptothralls, only suffering minor damage.

As the fleshbags apparently didn't get the message, Lord Amonthak ordered me to deploy with the newly awakened warriors. If it was my place I would have ordered deployment of the warriors earlier, instead of waiting for the inter… What was I saying? According to Lord Amonthak's brilliant plan I deployed with the newly awakened warriors and we advanced westwards where a couple of primitive bipedal constructions and a loud flying one arrived, all pouring primitive fire and projectiles into the Doomstalker, but nothing that our protective shields couldn't handle. While speeding by, the flying construction spewed out another swarm of fleshbags that my warriors engaged, reducing them to dust particles that our scarabs will be able to harvest for construction work at a later time.

Finally the fleshbags understood how hopelessly outclassed they were, and after the huge one managed to damage a lot of the scarabs with his club, the remaining of the fleshbag swarms slithered away into their dark hole. We really should have haunted them down and exterm… Where was I again? Thanks to our Lord Amonthak's wise decision we let them run away this time as we need a more coherent plan to get rid of all the pests at once, instead of spending time and energy on exterminating individuals.
