The Battle of Bosphodia was fought by the Death Guard and Eldar sometime after the formation of the Great Rift.

Elements of the 5th and 6th Plague Companies engaged in a naval battle with Craftworld Saim-Hann and its fleet around the moons of Bosphodia. Before they are driven off, the Death Guard successfully boarded the Craftworld and spread their corruption through the territory of Wild Rider clan Sylthach. In desperation, Saim-Hann's Seer Council ordered ghost warriors to cut that part of the world-ship away with weapon fire. So devastating is the despair felt in that moment that it conjures Nurgle Daemons into the waystones of the surviving Sylthach clan members, possessing them and transforming them into insectile half-breeds. Soon, tales of tainted Eldar Corsairs are prevalent throughout the Paragos Sub-sector and beyond.[1]
