Keep going and destroy the base in the southern corner of the map after taking care of the Baneblade there first. This is were you will want to use a couple Rhino transports and two Predator escorts to drive straight to the Basilisks (located on the island in the middle of the river on the south-eastern edge of the map) and deploy your men and do a quick strike. Then start advancing toward the south corner of the map using the CSM (Chaos Space Marines), up until the IG start firing with their artillery.

This is a great help in the beginning against transport drops by the Imperial Guard. Well, Here's a Chaos Strategy: First, get the province that gives you the Forward Base ability, and if you have enough Requisition, get 4 Plasma Generators and 4 Turrets to start out with. Kill the Commissar Guarding the 5th Company.Destroy Secondary Company Mechanise System.Destroy the HQ building in the main base at the North corner of the map.Eliminate the Imperial Guard from the campaign.The provincial hinterland, however, stretches to the south where agrifarms take advantage of the milder summers.

The city of Victory Bay itself lies at the northern end of the temperate belt and is prone to long winters and rain much of the rest of the year. They have renamed the city Victory Bay in honor of their coming reconquest of the planet. Once the capital city of Kronus, Ironworks Bay stood abandoned and derelict for centuries before the Imperial Guard arrived.
