Battle Report: The Prisoner

the fourth scenario of my new rogue trader campaign I played last Sunday.

Background
borderline world of Issus (called "Somewhere" by the settlers): inside an hidden temple of the Genestealer Cult.
The Magus was arrested by the judge and now he is in an imperial prison.
The followers of the Magus are outraged and they meditate to free their leader.
Hierarch: "The unfaithful have kidnapped our prophet! We MUST free him! For the Patriarch!"
all the cultists hail to the words of the Hierarch.
Hierarch: "We must act with caution, then we will not guide a team of our purestrain or hybrid brothers.
The unbelievers don't must know about the real face of our faith... then we will deploy some of our human and abhuman followers, but I will lead them personally!
the crowd cheers: "Praise to the Four Arms Father! Long Live the Patriarch!"
