hh8节译：红泪之陨

In its fiery plunge from orbit, the Red Tear carved a vast scar into the face of Signus Prime, yet while its outer layers were fractured and broken, its core structure remained unscathed. All primary functions remained intact and operational, but nearly 80% of its secondary functions were inoperable, some from direct damage and others due to cascade overloads of power shunts and venting systems. While internal bulkheads, vox networks and four external augur bundles remained operational, none of the main batteries were operable and only seven percent of the point defence guns could still fire. Worse yet, the engines were crippled, and without significant repair work the great ship was condemned to remain beached on the surface of Signus Prime, a poor end to a proud warship.

当朱红之泪号从轨道上燃烧着坠落时，她在西格纳斯主星的地表刻出了一条巨大的伤疤。虽然她的外部船体破损断裂了，但她的核心结构未受损伤。所有主要功能保持完整性和可操作性，但将近百分之八十的次要功能停止运行，有些是直接伤害造成的，其他的则是由于分流器和通风系统的级联过载。虽然内部舱壁、通讯网络和四个外部鸟卜仪天线集束还在工作，但主炮炮台已经全部失能，也只剩百分之七的点防炮还能开火。更糟的是，引擎严重受损。如果无法进行重要有效的维修工作，那这艘伟大的战舰就注定要搁浅在西格纳斯主星的地表——对这艘高傲的战舰来说，这种结局是悲惨的。

Of the crew complement and attached Legiones Astartes detachments, there were numerous reported casualties. Many had perished outright and a large number had sustained non-critical injuries, and those few medicae stations that still functioned were quickly overwhelmed treating the survivors. Sanguinius himself ordered priority be given to the human crew, while the Legiones Astartes relied on their own posthuman fortitude to compensate for damaged limbs and lesser internal injuries. In total there remained 734 fully combat effective Legiones Astartes aboard the Red Tear, and another 912 whose injuries would not prevent them from fighting. Added to this complement were the 36 surviving Space Wolves and 34 Custodians, as well as the Primarch himself and a number o£ the Legion's most senior officers that had been aboard at the time of the crash. Lastly, there was a mere 3,000 surviving Imperial Navy crewman aboard, of which perhaps 600 were trained and combat-ready naval security.

机组成员和配属到舰上的军团阿斯塔特分遣队也报告了大量的人员伤亡。很多人当场死亡，大量人员受到了非致命伤害，少量仍能工作的医疗站马上全速运转以救治幸存者们。圣吉列斯亲自下令给予凡人船员优先使用权，军团阿斯塔特们依靠自身超越凡人的坚韧性来弥补受损的肢体和不太严重的内伤。朱红之泪号上总共还有734名能够满效率作战的军团阿斯塔特，以及另外912名虽然受伤但并不妨碍他们作战的阿斯塔特。除此之外还有36名幸存的太空野狼军团战士与34名禁军，以及圣吉列斯本人一些圣血天使军团中级别最高的军官——冲撞发生时他们也在船上。最后，船上幸存的帝国海军船员仅剩3000人，其中大约600人是受过训练且处于战备状态的海军安保部队（机仆：in船上负责跳帮的）

In all, despite the damage it had suffered, the Red Tear remained a highly defensible fortress and an ideal beachhead for any ground assault on Signus Prime itself. Its outer hull presented a barrier equal to any bastion wall and the complement of warriors within would be able to hold their ground against any conventional foe until relieved. Had it not been for the nature of their foe and the weapons arrayed against them, then history might well have followed a far different path.

总的来看，虽然朱红之泪号已经受损，但她仍然是一座高度防御的堡垒，以及抵抗任何来自西格纳斯主星的地面进攻的理想滩头阵地。她的外层船壳能充当相当于堡垒墙的防御屏障，船舱内的战士们能够坚守阵地来对抗任何常规敌人，直到危险被解除。如果不是因为敌人的本质和对付他们的武器（都是非常规超自然的），那么历史可能就走了一条截然不同的道路。
