'''{{PAGENAME}}''', known as the ''Light of the Fallen Suns'' in [[Eldar Lexicon|the language of the Eldar]], is an [[Eldar]] [[Craftworld]]. Recently, Lugganath is known to have been active in the western quadrant of the [[Segmentum Obscurus]].{{Fn|2}}
==Overview==
In 764.[[M34]],{{Fn|7b}} Lugganath was victim to a [[The Shattering|major attack]] from a [[psychically]]-shielded fleet of the [[Emperor's Children]]. The devotees of [[Slaanesh]] cornered hundreds of Eldar at the '''Plaza of Reflection''' where their sonic weapons collapsed the craftworld's architecture, crushing much of the craftworld's populace, and prompting the use of [[Hemlock Wraithfighter]]s.{{Fn|7b}} The battle itself was engineered by the [[Harlequin]]s of [[Sylandri Veilwalker]] who stated that it would prevent greater deaths in the future. Though Lugganath was devastated in the attack, it was ultimately able to defeat the Emperor's Children invasion.{{Fn|5}}{{Fn|11}}
In '''421'''.[[M41]], the Craftworld's inner council was massacred by [[Steel Fang (Wych)|Steel Fang]].{{Fn|8}}
Some point after the formation of the [[Great Rift]] Lugganath sent forces to [[War Zone Laevenir]] to aid their kin against the [[Tyranids]].{{Fn|13}} During the [[Fourth Tyrannic War]], Lugganath's forces invaded the besieged [[Bastior Sub-sector]] with allied [[Corsairs]] from the [[Sunblitz Brotherhood]].{{Fn|15}}

At some point, the [[Farseer]]s of Lugganath predicted the rise of the [[Ork]] [[Freebooter|pirate]]-[[Big Mek|engineer lord]] [[Gorkog Chrometeef]], prophesying that, should Chrometeef succeed in his invasion of an unnamed [[Imperium|Imperial]] [[Industrial World]], that he would become a menace to merchant shipping across three [[Sector|sub-sectors]]. This, in turn, would provoke an Imperial anti-[[xenos]] [[Crusade]] in response that would lead to the Craftworld's destruction. Marshalling its forces, along with allied Corsairs warbands led by [[Corsair Prince|Prince]] [[Eidear]] and [[Corsair Prince|Princess]] [[Isbeil]], the eldar were able to bring down Chrometeef's new flagship, the ''[[Beastmother]]'', and kill the greenskin before he could launch his campaign, though not without significant loss of life.{{Fn|12}}
