The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a battle fought after a troupe of [[Eldar]] [[Harlequin]]s accidentally awakened a [[Necron]] [[Tomb World]] while attempting to reactivate the [[Craftworld]] [[Theminarae]] which had crashed on [[Quintus (Forest World)|Quintus]] ten millennia earlier.{{fn|1a}}
===Overview===
The [[Dark Angels]], investigating sighting of a [[xenos]] fleet above Quintus, deployed to the surface when they detected the reactivation of [[Theminarae]]. [[Space Marine Scout|Scouts]] encountered the first of the awakening [[Necron]]s, delivering a warning to the main strike force. Without the necessary ordnance for an orbital bombardment, [[Techmarine]] Larathiel planned to overload Theminarae's engines to destroy the tomb before the Necrons could fully awaken. Before the plan could be enacted, the Dark Angels were ambushed by the Harlequins that had reactivated the Craftworld.{{fn|1b}}
The Harlequin troupe retreated, while the Dark Angels hunted down the remaining Necrons and investigated the unknown force that had given them their opening.{{fn|1c}}
