The '''Battle of Agrion''' was a campaign waged by [[Craftworld]] [[Iyanden]] led by Prince [[Yriel]] and [[Chaos]] renegades led by [[Argan Kallorax]]. After a long campaign of fighting an elusive enemy, Kallorax's forces finally came face-to-face with Yriel's fleet in the orbital dockyards over the world of [[Agrion]]. Here, 80 Iyanden ships battled doubled double their number. In a fierce space battle , Kallorax was coming close to victory, but after his [[Hades Class Heavy Cruiser]] , ''Deathless Reaver'' , was destroyed by Yriel's flagship , the [[Flame of Asuryan]], the space battle tipped in the Eldar's favor. However , once the Eldar boarded the Agrion shipyards, they found their [[Aspect Warrior]]s taking heavy losses in the stations station's cramped corridors against Kallorax's [[Storm Bolter]]-equipped followers. Loathed to take any more losses, Yriel ordered a retreat and looses his [[Wraith-construct]]s guided by [[Spiritseer]]s, who managed to use their terrifying strength and firepower to take the station. The failure of the battle caused a mutiny to break out among Kallorax's forces, an act which that the Chaos Lord brutally put down.{{Fn|1}}
