Battle of Exhubris II
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Battle of Exhubris II was a conflict fought in 029.M41.[1]
The sealed portals upon Exhubris II's grand archipelago are hidden within a landscape of pyramids, but the Adeptus Mechanicus forces from Stygies VIII makes it their mission to open them. The excavation is well under way when a large force of Eldar from Craftworld Ulthwe arrive without warning to assail the Mechanicus work teams. Stygies requests aid from a nearby Martian fleet. So determined is their defense that the reinforcements have time to make planetfall in great number, and the Eldar ground forces are hammered to ruin. The runic portal is broken open, and Tech-Priests from both Stygies and Mars enter the labyrinth beyond.[1]
