Cut to a wide-angle shot of bushes, fields and trees.
Voice Over (sounding an awful lot like John Cleese): In this picture there are forty marines. None of them can be seen. In this film we hope to show you how not to be seen.
(Caption on screen: ADEPTUS ASTARTES, STARFOX TRAINING FILM NO. 42 PARA 6. "HOW NOT TO BE SEEN"')
Voice Over: In this film we hope to show how not to be seen. This is Brother Bradshaw of the 3rd Company. He can not be seen. Now I am going to ask him to stand up. Brother Bradshaw will you stand up please?
In the distance Brother Bradshaw stands up. There is a loud boltgun blast as Brother Bradshaw is shot in the stomach. He explodes from the inside out and crumples to the ground.
Voice Over: This demonstrates the value of not being seen.
Cut to another location - an empty area of scrubland.
Voice Over: In this picture we cannot see Brother Smegma of the 5th Company. Brother Smegma will you stand up please?
To the right of the area Brother Smegma stands up. Heavy bolter shots rings out, and Brother Smegma leaps into the air, and falls to the ground dead. Cut to another area, however this time there is a bush in the middle.
Voice Over: This is Brother Nesbit of the 2nd Company. Brother Nesbit would you stand up please? (after a pause -nothing happens) Brother Nesbitt has learnt the value of not being seen. However he has chosen a very obvious piece of cover.
The bush explodes and you hear a muffled scream. Cut to another scene with three bushes.
Voice Over: Brother Lambert of the 6th company, has presented us with a poser. We do not know which bush he is behind, but we can soon find out. (a missile is heard and the left-hand bush explodes, another missile is launched, then the right-hand bush explodes, and finally a third missile is fired, then the middle bush explodes. There is a muffled scream as Brother Lambert is blown up) Yes it was the middle one.
Cut to a shot of a farmland area with an empty fuel barrel, a wall, a pile of leaves, a bushy tree, a parked Rhino, and lots of bushes in the distance.
Voice Over: Brother Andrews, of the 1st Company, has concealed himself extremely well. He could be almost anywhere. He could be behind the wall, inside the fuel barrel, beneath a pile of leaves, up in the tree, squatting down behind the Rhino, concealed in a hollow, or crouched behind any one of a hundred bushes. However we happen to know he's in the fuel barrel. (The fuel barrel just blows up in a huge explosion after being hit with a shot from a plasma cannon).
Cut to a panning shot from a beach to the view across the sea.
Voice Over: Veteran Sergeant Watson of the 8th Company, chose a very cunning way of not being seen. When we called his company Commander, we found that he had gone away on two weeks leave. He had not left any forwarding address, and he had bolted and barred his quarters to prevent us from getting in. However a fellow squad member told us where he was.
The camera pans around and stops on a obvious looking tent, which blows up. Cut to a Landraider with a Space Marine standing out front.
Voice Over: And here is the squad member. (he blows up, leaving just his armored feet.)
Cut to a Space Marine Fortress-Monastery in the desert.
Voice Over: Here is where he lived (Fortress-Monastery blows up.)
Cut to a large Imperial Gothic Class Cruiser.
Voice Over: And
this is where Inquisitor Lord Langdin lived, who refused
to speak to us (Space Cruiser blows up). so did
the Confessor who lived here....(shot of a Imperial
Administrative building - it blows up) and here.....(a
high altitude shot of a hive spire as it explodes in a
nuclear blast) and of course here.....(an orbital
shot of a planet as a heavy ordinance bombardment from a
fleet of Battle Barges cause it to catastrophically
explode into a nothing but cosmic dust)...
