The Battle of Hesperous Gate, took place during the Dark Angel attack on Hesperous Hive as part of a new offensive to drive the Rift Wardens out of the hive. The offensive began against the defenders and pushed them back to the north gate of the lower hive. The capture of Hesperous Gate, a strategically important trade road, would have brought the Rift Wardens in range of the Dark Angels tank forces. Captain Angrad brought a force of reinforcements to help shore up the defensive line and soon after the Dark Angels launched an attack to capture the Gate. After a determined defence by Angrad's battle brothers, the Dark Angels were close to success until Angrad led a counter attack. He restored the defensive line and halted the Dark Angels advance.
