{|align="right"|align="right"|{{ChaosPortal}}|-|align="right"|{{EldarPortal}}|}The '''Battle of Agrion''' was a campaign waged by [[Craftworld]] [[Iyanden]] led by Prince [[Yriel]] and [[Chaos]] renegades led by [[Argan Kallorax]]. {{Fn|1}} 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 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 station's cramped corridors against Kallorax's [[Storm Bolter]]-equipped followers. Loathed to take any more losses, Yriel ordered a retreat and looses loosed 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 that the Chaos Lord brutally put down.{{Fn|1}}
