The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was fought by the [[Death Guard]] and [[Eldar]] sometime after the formation of the [[Great Rift]].{{Fn|1}}
Elements of the [[5th Plague Company|5th ]] and [[6th Plague Company|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 [[Wraithguard|ghost warriorwarriors]]s to cut that part of the world-ship away with weapon fire. So devastating is was the despair felt in that moment that it conjures conjured Nurgle [[Daemon]]s into the waystones of the surviving Sylthach clan members, possessing them and transforming them into insectile half-breeds. Soon, tales of tainted [[Eldar Corsair]]s are were prevalent throughout the [[Paragos]] [[Sub-sector]] and beyond.{{Fn|1}}
