The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a battle waged by the [[Salamanders]] in [[M41]].{{Fn|1}}

The war began when the [[Genestealer]] [[Cult of the Innerwyrm]] dug into the [[Agri-World]] of [[Slathergraft]], causing elements of the [[3rd Company (Salamanders)|Salamanders 3rd Company]] to respond. [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Adrax Agatone]] made planetfall unopposed, finding the world deserted. When they descended beneath the surface, however, they discovered the planet's populace enslaved by mass parasitism. Revolted and angered, the Salamanders launched a merciless cull that targeted every living thing below Slathergraft's surface. [[Purestrain Genestealer]]s soon appeared, and the Salamanders' casualties mounted. Agatone and his Pyroclasts drove onward and when the Captain emerged from the gloomy interior of Slathergraft, he led barely a quarter of the Battle-Brothers he went in with.{{Fn|1}}
