On the high ground above Hell's Point, the Necrons continued to inflict many losses on the Imperial divisions attacking there. Chief Librarian Uther took charge and led a joint infantry, dreadnought and aircraft operation against the enemy. Necron strongpoints and artillery pieces were captured or destroyed. Over the next two days, Uther took advantage of gaps in the Necron lines and his assault continued. However, this run of success was soon to come to an end as his forces neared the tomb complex itself. The enemy command unleashed a force of C'Tan shards the like had not been seen before and their attack was costly to both sides. Uther laid down a new formation of skirmish lines to be supported by the dreadnoughts and what terminator forces were available to him, and then attacked the enemy simultaneously. Despite a brave and heroic charge, the very presence of the star gods forced a recall of Uther's battle brothers. The engagement had been lost but at the very least, a number of vital positions had been destroyed, denied to the enemy.
