The Morriah Coast

According to the humans and Tau who make their homes on the Morriah Coast, the ruins of some ancient civilization lurk deep in the unexplored heart of the inland jungles. The rise of the Necrons has given these legends a new and terrible verisimilitude.

Geography

The coast of Morriah Bay to the south is home to broad sand beaches and a pleasant, hot climate. The inland forests, however, feature heavier precipitation and cooler temperatures.

O'Shovah - 
The Orks of the region are far less organized than those we faced in the capital city of Tash'n upon our arrival on this world two cycles ago. Without the central authority of one of their chieftains they seem to revert to savage tribal warfare tactics, more focused on raiding whoever is at hand than on making any concerted efforts to take hold of territory. Our cadre has thus been able to outmaneuver the Orks by anticipating likely targets for their aggression and striking at their flanks. this allows us to compensate for the massive numerical advantage enjoyed by the enemy, who outnumber us some twenty or thirty to one.
The Vespid auxiliaries in our  Cadre have proven especially effective in this battle. They are able to fly at high speeds through the dense foliage, striking at the enemy and then vanishing again into the canopy. According to Pathfinders observing from cover, these raids regularly drive the Orks into apoplectic fits as they scramble up trees or launch volleys of crude projectiles into the foliage, only to be attacked from another front. The disarray the Vespid cause creates perfect opportunities for barrages from fire warrior teams or crisis suits, or even for close assault by Kroot carnivore teams.
I am confident we can continue this harrying tactic with minimal loss and slowly drive the Orks south and westward. Actually eliminating these barbarians, however, will require more firepower than my cadre has at its disposal.
