The victorious Orks seized Substation City, but Three Hands had already fled. They had been abandoned.

They knew this was deep within human territory. If they did not run, human reinforcements would surely kill them!

But they no longer wanted to run. They wanted to fight until they died—or rather, have fun until they died.

The terrain here was relatively complex, with uneven ground, valleys, peaks, and countless tank and armored vehicle wrecks scattered across the flatlands.

Thus, the Orks' fighting instincts stirred them into action, and they organized themselves into combat squads.

Long-barreled tanks formed tank-hunter units, short-barreled tanks formed infantry-killer units, autocannon vehicles formed air-defense units, and
