Subject's squad accomplishes designated main and secondary objectives nevertheless without suffering further casualties, allowing full-scale offensive. Imperial victory shortly achieved.
Knara Prime Pacification: standard civil riots answered by 5 imperial Guard regiments and Knights Inductor demi-company. War stagnates when Chaos influence discovered and Traitor Guard and Astartes join conflict through unknown means. Imperial defeat barely avoided thanks to Knights Inductor counter-offensive deep behind enemy lines, spearheaded by subject's squad. Enemy CO death confirmed and enemy forces disbanded. Knights Inductor leave theater, leaving Imperial Guard forces to clean-up. Subject and only two surviving squadmates are granted Battle-Brother status.
Date of Promotion to Battle-Brother: 907.M41
Notable Actions:
Aketi Campaign: massive Imperial offensive into Aketi Sector, Eastern Fringe, Segmentum Ultima. Involved 134 Imperial Guard Regiments and elements from 14 Adeptus Astartes Chapters, including Knights Inductor. Objective was to reclaim several systems ravaged by Hive Fleet Behemoth in 700.M41
Early Stages: 3rd Knights Inductor Company deployed with battle-barge "Equilibria Bellum" to stop/contain Dark Eldar pirate raids. Subject's squad involved in several boarding actions against Dark Eldar fleet, managing to destroy/disable 4 xenos escort ships and 1 cruiser (identified as the “Sanguine Song”) with minimal casualties.
Main War Theatres: Hive Fleet Behemoth remnant forces engaged. Knights Inductor deployed across Yanic, Xi-Shi, Mylita and Berith Systems. 38% casualty rates. Knights Inductor favoured quick fire-squad actions, multiplying fronts while minimizing the Tyranids' massive numbers advantage. Subject showed great tactical awareness and mastered a range of ultra-flexible tactics in order to mantain his Chapter's trademark guerrila and hit-and-run tactics to the ever-evolving Swarm. 8 synaptic creatures's deaths (mostly warrior genus) confirmed at the subject's hands, adding at least another three dozen indirectly felled by his actions.
Final Stages: Imperial forces threatened by massive Necron sudden awakening, designated as Aketi Dynasty. Tyranid forces suffered the blunt of the new faction's offensive, rendering them almost completely exterminated. Astartes elements coordinated a withdrawal and counter-offensive, identifying and deploying against Necron sensitive spots. Knights Inductor 3rd Company is deployed into a massive underground xeno-complex and scattered when confronted with unexpected resistance and unknown dimensional anomalies. Subject manages to survive for 3 weeks before successfully escaping the complex and arriving at the Company rendevouz point, 47 kilometres away. He transmits valuable enemy intel to the Imperial High Command, earning him an official recognition of courage, which is refused.
-Recomendations-
Brother-Captain Jogion Cedth: Brother Kohnnor is a valuable soldier with a sharp mind. He will serve the Emperor well.
Brother-Chaplain Leotus Simiel: the honour, courage and martial merits of Brother Kohnnor are unquestionable, but then again, the same can be said about most of Astartes in service to Terra. What Kohnnor can provide to His armies is far less common: Tevlarion has an extremely rational mind. He does not let himself be carried away by emotions or feelings. He just observes, evaluates and acts. His learning capacity is awe-inspiring and rarely does he misjudge a situation or makes the same mistake twice. Paired with his adamantine loyalty to Him on Earth, the Imperium and the Chapter, he has the makings of a great warrior. I can only dream of the things he could learn from the Deathwatch and how far he may grow with your help.
