Hello: i am stuck on the Ork Expulsion final scenario in the Ultramarines campaign. I do well with Hellfire dreadnoughts and achilles landraiders, with terminators to take victory hexes, until turn 30. Then i am hit with a wave of brand new ork armor and heavy inf that wipes me down to an ineffective force. Their seems to be no end to the orks and not enough time despite the 40 turns. Any hints from those who have completed this? Thanks for any help.

Ps - this is the open field scenario choice
for the final battle, not the hive scenario.

I have played through Glory of Macragge on the Challenging difficulty setting and the last scenario - Ork Expulsion - seems impossible. I have tried changing the unit mix and different approaches but the sheer number of victory hexes and number of Ork Units, including several Ork Titan and Baneblade-equivalents, seem to me to make the victory conditions of destroying all Ork units and capturing all victory hexes mathematically impossible to satisfy in 40 turns. Is this intended -- since the Orks were never fully eradicated in the fiction? Or am I missing something? Any thoughts from someone who has played the scenario are appreciated. Thanks

I'm having the same problem. I can't see how this is even close to winnable. I also would be grateful for anyone who has won this mission to post here.

Just to add a little more information...
This mission has 24 (TWENTY FOUR) victory hexes! Can that be right? All but four are in or next to trench hexes. This number of victory hexes which must be captured is so far above ANY OTHER mission of any other campaign that it almost looks like some kind of error. I hope the develepor reads this and can provide some kind of response.

Well, I tried this mission again (on the iPad) and this time a sizable Salamander army showed up in the south central sector of the map. I had tried this mission MANY times before without any Salamander army showing up and that is why I called the mission un-winable! With this new Salamander army I was able to win the mission and go on to complete the campaign.

This is a great game!!!!! I love it.
