Battle of Delugen
The Battle of Delugen was a three-way conflict waged in M41.[1]
The incident began when the Genestealer Cult Tendricul infiltrated the Imperial space station of Delugen. Sometime later, a strike force of Eldar Black Guardians from Craftworld Ulthwe descended upon the gyroscopic station. The Farseer Anathroelle Starseeker led her warriors into Delugen’s corridors. There they slew the Cult Tendricul in the most thorough fashion, putting every human they found to the sword. The station’s astropathic distress signal reached a Black Templars fleet, and whilst the Eldar were rooting the last of the humans from the station’s corridors, the boarding torpedoes of the Space Marines struck home. The Ulthwé Eldar were driven off, and the last few survivors of Delugen escape. Within a year, the symbols of the Cult Tendricul were seen on a dozen planets, including the Eldar maiden world Virgose.[1]
