"There is always beauty, even in the depths of ugliness, even in the depths of defeat,” said Dante. “Your song raises us all above this realm of earthly flesh, for we are angels and warriors in equal part. Our devotion to our Emperor and our gene-father is a paragon to which the citizens of the Imperium have long aspired. Now we stand upon the brink of death, this will not change. I say let us not go into the long silences of history, but stride forward into legend. If the tyranids remained without guidance, we might survive here, behind the walls of the Heavenward Redoubt. But they reorganise. The hive mind is disrupted no longer. Our Librarians report the shadow falls once more. It is weak, but it grows stronger with every passing minute, coalescing around one potent nexus. If this is allowed to continue the tyranids will become of one mind again, and they shall attack without mercy, and we will perish here, within these walls. We have no notice of the fleet. The void is awash with the energies of the warp. If we strike down their leader, we may deal the swarm one fatal deathblow, and save the worlds beyond Baal… In this way, we will win a victory of sorts. We will most likely die in the attempt. Millions of them remain, scant thousands of us. If we stay behind these walls, they will overwhelm the last of our defences in a few days. This is the only way. The shadow in the warp is a many-headed monster, more ferocious than the hydra of ancient tales, for it has a billion times a billion heads, and all must be severed before it will die. We have the blades! We have the will! Let us carve the skulls of this creature. Are we not the sons of the Great Angel? Are we not the most blessed of all Adeptus Astartes? Our primarch was among the first to die, but he lives eternal in all our beings. The meat and blood of our bodies are his host. For ten thousand years we have protected his legacy within the fortresses of our bodies.” Dante bows his head here. ”That time is at an end. We are all Death Company now. The sarcophagi lie shattered, their occupants devoured, and our future upon Baal has died with them. The Chapter is finished here, but it is not yet dead. Our bloodline may survive, in the gene-seed of our brothers elsewhere in the galaxy, it may not. This question of survival is no longer ours to contemplate. Divert your gaze from the future, and think of the present, of now, of what we might accomplish in these next, glorious hours. For if we must go into the darkness of extinction, let us do so with our swords in our hands and the wrath of Sanguinius in our grasp. When tidings of this battle reach other worlds, let them lift up their guns and say We shall not fall! We shall not die meekly. Through battle we remember and honour the sons of Baal! Who will say ‘aye,’ who will raise his sword with mine? Who will bring burnished steel and wrathful soul to the slaughter, and let red ruin flow? Who will die in remembering our lord? Our flesh may be devoured, but they cannot touch our souls! We are the most blessed of the Emperor’s warriors. The soul of our lord lives in the minds and the hearts of every one of us, we the red clad, the blood hungry. We the wrathful and the pure. We, the sons of Sanguinius, most noble and glorious of all the primarchs, we hold more than his memory in our hearts and minds The Great Angel would not lurk here waiting for his end. He would strike out, seeking to destroy the leader of his enemies as he did when he confronted his brother Horus. Such a choice is now ours, as it was our father’s. If we do this, we shall all surely perish, but Baal may yet escape, and play host to Space Marines still. You and I will not be among them, but the name of the Blood Angels and the score of other Chapters who fought with us here will yet be known across the galaxy. For a millennium I have worn this mask, so long that mortal humans on a thousand worlds equate Dante with Sanguinius. One has become the other. I have no need of a mask any longer, I need not wear our lord’s face. He is in here, in my hearts. I reveal my face to you, long hidden for shame of the weakness age reveals. I shall wear this mask when I fight, in honour of our lord, but I go into the final battle not as a poor facsimile of our father, but as Commander Luis Dante, son of Baal, son of the Great Angel, whose living body is the host of the primarch! What say you, warriors of Baal?” he said in a ferocious whisper that rose in volume and power. ”That we let slip the Red Thirst one final time, and fly upon wings of wrath with our lord unto battle? I commend you all, oh ye mighty, to the protection of the Great Angel. For the Emperor, for Sanguinius! There is no more beauty to be had from life, so let us then seek a beautiful death!” "A beautiful death! For the Emperor! For Sanguinius!” the doomed angels shouted. Their voices shook the ruins of the Basilica Sanguinarum. ”Then we march. All of us who bear the Blood. Chaplain Ordamael, summon the Amarean Guard. Open the gates of the Tower of Amareo. Let the damned march with the damned.”

I always find it weird when a squad of terminators (veterans of a first company.. the elite of the elite of Astartes no less!!) Fall to some gene stealers like a group of militarium guard.. I mean, how can they confuse a bunch of stealers for a darkened ceiling? WTH is being in an elite force when you can look straight at a bunch of aliens and NOT see them through your enhanced eyesight and sensors??! Love your narrations ABP!! Still rather new to this universe and its many stories written by many authors… Sometimes, what’s written, doesn’t add up, and just leaves me scratching my noggin!!

You gotta mix it with your signature warcry "no faulter, for the glory of .." somehow and that is Mandatory to be your new intro . Just when I was going to listen for the N time the devastation of Baal, I got this boon. Cheers

No it leads straight into Dante!! Read Dante first, then Devastation of Baal! I can’t believe ABP got that wrong. I feel really bad for people who skip important books because they don’t know. GW is really bad at listing their books in order. Dante literally picks up right at the very end of this. And nowhere in Dante do they mention that it follows directly on from Shield of Baal, or in fact that it follows on from anything. Anyway if you keep reading, make sure you read Dante before Devastation of Baal, and you’ll enjoy Devastation of Baal (which is a great book) much better. Both are great books actually. Then there’s one after that too that I haven’t read yet. Not sure where the Mephiston series fits in, but it’s around the same time I think.

So the thing I want to on is, did this campaign actually work/help in the defence of Baal, or did it just waste resources and feed more biomass to the tyranids, cause without securing system it means any surviving tyranid ships can just absorb all biomass in the system still, process it and move on to Baal with more biomass then they started with
