I hate daemons. And I mean I hate useless daemons, not the lesser daemons of the Horned Rat. I can bargain with ours, but with Khorne's daemons? What can we do with them? Yes, we can point them toward our enemies, but what do we do when they charge at us?
Today, during our scouting mission, we got lost in a forest—but it was no ordinary wood; it was a warp-infused maze. I got separated from the others. Queek Headtaker managed to find my Rat Ogres and the Doomwheel, while our useless servants were on the other side of the battlefield. Facing Queek was a whole army of daemons surrounding their unholy altar. Against me stood their general on his fell steed, and against our soldiers stood daemon raiders.
There were several landmarks in the area radiating power, so we decided to claim them and attempt to banish those warp-spawn. Queek tunneled to one, but his Stormvermin didn't have a chance to catch up with him. He claimed the objective, but the daemon general and his Bloodthirster charged him; he barely managed to retreat into the tunnels. During that same charge, that bloody Bloodthirster turned on me! I had to quickly cast a teleportation spell to escape.
From that moment on, everything was doomed. The Rat Ogres were fighting some magical axe that a daemon priest had summoned. They managed to kill some Chaos hounds and even the daemon general, but then the Bloodthirster chopped them to pieces. The Doomwheel was under heavy fire from daemon cannons and was eventually destroyed by the daemon priest. The Stormvermin and Mors warriors fought the daemon cavalry around two landmarks, but they were all slaughtered.
In the end, we fled. I think I need to contact my "friends" and try to bribe them into helping us next time.
