Ko'tham cut the transmission and turned his gaze towards the rallying defenders, the Cabal squads under his command were small in number, but they made up for that by being some of the legions finest. The opposing humans had taken cover in the maze like hallways within the engine room, and with every fullisade of slug fire they appeared to grow ever more determined to hold their ground. Such stubborn behavior was typical of humans, Ko'tham noted, but their petty resistance would not get in the way of the Cabal.

"Phalanxes get into position!" ordered Bracus Ko'tham.

The Cabal warriors instantly formed a hardened barrier that would act as a bulwark against incoming fire, and from behind the wall were legionares that stood ever vigilant and ready to unleash volley after volley of slug rounds untill all that opposed the empire had fallen.

"Advance!" ordered Ko'tham.

Down the corridor the phalanxes marched ever onward, nearing the defenders with each passing second; and for each second dozens of slug rounds were thrown into the hall striking all those foolish enough to vacate cover. It soon became clear to the defenders that it was impossible to leave their refuge unscathed, due to the sheer firepower their attackers possesed. And what made matters worse was that the gun line continued to advance, and press the attack.

"Charge!" yelled the Bracus.

Suddenly, the tightly held together wall of shield was now advanced at an even faster rate towards the defenders. In a panic many of the operators began to leave cover and hip fire their weapons towards the wall, but it was to no avail; much of their shots either missed or struck harmlessly against the rock hard shield wall to no affect. And then the charge struck home.

The humans were rammed and trampled underneath the raging Cabal, most having killed from the initial impact of the shield ram. Before, long the Cabal had seized the engine room and with it the heart of the ship.
