The Rift Wardens had assembled a force of 600 marines in sector 17, under the command of captain Lorgraine as a planned invasion of Dark Angel held territory. The Dark Angels under the direct command of chapter master Azrael had taken this territory as a operations base. His forces consisted of around 200 battle brothers and a handful of veterans in terminator armour. Azrael's forces had taken this ground despite incoming artillery strikes and even succeeded in capturing a small Rift Wardens outpost along the main highway. The Rift Wardens had managed to position themselves either side of the enemy positions Azrael, realising that the counter-attack was imminent, ordered his battle brothers to withdraw. As they did so, Lorgraine activated the trap and a phenomenal amount of bolter fire poured into the Dark Angels. Enemy eliminators and heavy weapons returned fire but they soon fell silent as the rearguard were destroyed. The Dark Angels fell back to territory they could hold. There were two more attacks by the Dark Angels on the border but both were repulsed with heavy losses.
