The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a battle of the [[First Rangdan Xenocide]].{{Fn|1}}
===Overview===
The six worlds of [[Advex-Mors]] was where the Rangdan were first identified, with the [[Xenos]] promptly overrrunning the system and establishing a outpost and creating a vast legions of slave soldiers from the captive [[Human]]s. After the [[Rangda]] had first been identified as the threat they were by the [[V Legion]], a massive [[Imperial]] force mustered at [[Xana]] including some 50,000 [[First Legion]] [[Space Marine]]s and 100,000 troops from the [[Imperial Army]] and [[Mechanicum]] [[Taghmata]], as well as 100 capital ships under the command of [[Legion Master|Grandmaster]] [[Urian Vendraig]]. Meanwhile, the Rangda had heavily fortified Advex-Mors and construct a vast artificial moon-like battle station with their slave hordes.{{Fn|1}}
Though they were victorious in the end, the cost for the First Legion was dire, having lost 10,000 Space Marines and 50 capital ships. The ''Paradigm of Hate'' remained fused with the derelict war-moon, with the First Legion choosing to leave it there as a symbol of what had occurred.{{Fn|1}}
