Prior to the arrival of the Rift Wardens, the Vigilus Astra Militarum regiments garrisoned to Dontoria Hivesprawl managed to inflict severe casualties upon the initial Ork invaders. This had enraged the greenskins and the invading Orks surged into the Imperial lines with unbridled rage. The Rift Wardens had set themselves up along the front lines in an derelict mining station and were preparing for their assault against the Orks when everything went wrong.
In the early hours as the sun began to rise over the wastelands south of Dontoria, the Orks made their move. The intercessors on sentry duty were taken by surprise as the greenskins crept over the outer defences. The greenskin forces then rushed the space marines who were arming themselves for the days warfare. The alarm was raised and the space marines began to fight back, loading for battle as the conflict raged around them.
The Rift Wardens suffered few casualties and were able to drive the Orks away with massed firepower. However, the surprise raid forced a set back in their operational plans while the Imperial outpost was reinforced and supplies were brought down from the orbiting fleet.
Victory to the Orks.
