It is located within the [[Metalica System]] and played a major part in the System's defense, as it contained a sizable [[Imperial Navy|Naval]] fleet. However when the [[Charadon Campaign]] began, [[Imperial Navy|Lieutenant-Heraldus]] [[Lihua Sheradane]] departed with most of the fleet to engage [[Typhus]]'s [[Chaos]] forces. A small fleet, led by the [[Emperor Battleship]] ''[[Mercy of the Blade]]'', remained to guard the Anchorage, which was under the command of [[Rear Admiral|Rear-Admiral]] [[Vordkin]]. This proved to be an inadequate defensedefence, when Typhus surprised the Imperium by invading the Metalica System, with via [[The Sore]] [[Warp]] tunnel. The tunnel had suddenly materialized within the System, and caught its defenders off-guard, as Typhus forces appeared and prepared to invade the [[Forge World]] [[Metalica]]. First, though, the Traveler Traveller intended to deal with anything that stood in his way and this included the Solari Anchorage. As Typhus' fleet advanced upon it, Rear-Admiral Vordkin knew the ''Mercy of the Blade's '' fleet could not stop the invaders. Rather than have the fleet be destroyed, Vordkin sent the ''Blade '' away, with as as many warships and support craft that could escape with it in time. Soon after the fleet departed, Typhus' warships came into range of the Anchorage's weaponry and it relentlessly fired upon them. However, the TravelerTraveller's fleet weathered the [[Star Fort]]'s fire and boarded it. Vordkin and his [[Armsmen|Naval Armsmen]] fought valiantly to defend the Anchorage, but they were killed by the unending [[Chaos]] hordes. After the last defender was slain, the Solari Anchorage was taken by Typhus.{{Fn|1}}
