The offensive of Vashtorr's followers began mere hours after the initial battle ended. Chaos bikers broke through the Rift Warden defence and took control of vital strategic locations. However, space marine forces under Captain Lorgraine made a flank counterattack and barely managed to force the enemy back.
Shortly thereafter, the Cogs of Vashtorr forced the loyalists back along a broad front, creating a bridgehead into their lines. The main forces, led by Vashtor himself and the mysterious individual known as Cypher, broke through the defences inflicting multiple casualties, and pushing the Rift Wardens further back away from the Bringer of Tears.
Lorgraine decided to retake the lost territory, by concentrating on a specific point in the enemy lines. The plan was to assault the lines with almost everything the captain had at his disposal. The next day, Lorgrain launched his counteroffensive. The engagement was brief and looked to be turning the tide of battle in the loyalist's favour until multiple warp gates burst open releasing the daemon Belakor and a horde of lesser daemons, who threw their attacks into the legions of Vashtorr. Lorgraine gave up the assault and left the enemy forces to fight among themselves.
