The '''Battle of Haunted Gulf''' took place in 189999.[[M41]] and was the climax of a confrontation between [[Commissar]] [[Sebastian Yarrick]] and [[Warboss]] [[Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka]].{{Fn|1}}

==Overview==
During the [[Third War for Armageddon]], Ghazghkull had become bored with the conflict and was drawn by visions of [[Gork and Mork]] to parts of the [[Galaxy]] unknown, assured that a [[Great Waaagh!]] was waiting for him. Leaving [[Armageddon]] on his flagship ''Kill Wrecka'', Ghazghkull was pursued by his old foe Commissar Yarrick.{{Fn|1}}

Yarrick and his ally [[High Marshal]] [[Helbrecht]] of the [[Black Templars]] were finally able to corner Ghazghkull in a barren zone of space known as the [[Haunted Gulf]]. Faced with both an [[Imperial Navy]] and [[Space Marine]] fleet, the Ork forces were mauled in ship-to-ship combat despite crippling several Imperial [[Battleship]]s. With ''Kill Wrecka'' surrounded, the forces of the Imperium prepared a boarding action when a wave of [[Weirdboy]]-generated green energy issues forth from the Ghazghkull's ship and shuts down all systems aboard Imperial ships. They can do nothing as ''Kill Wrecka'' disappears into the [[Warp]], leaving behind no clues.{{Fn|1}}

''Kill Wrecka'' eventually emerged at the [[Ork Empire of Octarius]], where he aided his greenskin brethren against [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]] in the [[Octarian War]].{{Fn|1}}
