The White Scars [[Tulwar Brotherhood]] were led by [[Suboden Khan]] but were still outnumbered badly, even after most of the forces left for Hive Helsreach. He managed to even the odds by drawing out the Speed Freaks and plunging into the depths of the Deadlands. For four weeks the Orks chased the White Scars and eventually they escaped, with the Speed Freaks five days behind them. With this time the White Scars managed to cripple several of the submersible shipyards, damaging many vessels and preventing any others from leaving to reinforce any attack on Hive Helsreach.{{Fn|4}}
The Orks were demoriliseddemoralised, even more so when the [[White Lightning ]] [[Speed Freaks Freeks]] finally made it back and brawling broke out quickly with no real leader among the group. Subodan Suboden then had the technicians at the Zebra Ice Station fit bombs to the side cars of [[Attack Bikes]] and launched them at the giant [[Rok]]s while the second marine jumped onto the bike and sped off. The White Lightnings mounted some defence which collapsed soon after Suboden himself attached some [[Melta Bombs]] to the Bosswagon.{{Fn|4}}
Three days before [[Ghazghkull Thraka]] was said to have left the planet, the Deadlands were reported to be secure. The Tulwar Brotherhood received a new battle honour for their part played in the battles.{{Fn|4}}
