With the war definitely in the hands of the Rift Wardens, Arthurus made the decision to cut off the Dark Angels from potential reinforcement and fresh supplies. The order was given to launch a landing from the Purity of Hate to capture the main space port of the city.

The initial landing was two hundred battle brothers with dreadnought support led by Captain Agamemnon. The Purity of Hate moved into low orbit and performed a series of orbital bombardments on the Dark Angel positions to make way for the incoming thunderhawks. When the Rift Wardens landed and launched the attack they faced little resistance/ The chapter captured the ill-prepared Dark Angel positions swiftly, seizing what undamaged supplies and ammunition remained after the bombardment. The space port was swiftly abandoned by the Dark Angels when their captain Lazarus was almost mortally wounded by Agamemnon.
