Fog of war has started to take stead now. These are scattered accounts from remembrances for this hard fought battle.
After the conflict had begun the combined forces of the Ultramarines and Tau tried to bring their fire power on the Eldar. However the Eldar proved evasive to taking heavy casualties. Interference from the Eldar delayed the arrival of air support. As a result lots of Ultramarines and Tau died, including most of the heavy support and the Ultramarines commanding Librarian, leaving the allied forces with no real hope of destroying the source of the Phantom shaped silhouette above the field of battle.
