Ravenguard defeat orks at Mezria VI

On Mezria VI both the orks and Imperium had established small forward bases. The world itself had no population, but was strewn with ruins across the surface of the world from a previous civilisation now lost to the mists of time. The entire world was shrouded in a sickly green fog, lending a dystopian feeling to an already barren world, but the planet was inhabitable, rich in resources and in a strategically central position in the Rifts.

The inevitable clash between the two forces started in early 04.022M42 as an ork patrol ran into a unit of Ravenguard astartes. Both sides then poured more and more forces into an escalating engagement, which soon became a maelstrom of fast moving firefights and skirmishes. The astartes dominated the engagement, and routed the orks, establishing the imperial base and forcing the orks onto the back foot. The war on Mezria was however far from decided.
