The Defense of Aurent was a battle between the Imperium and Ulthwe Eldar in 992.M41. It helped raise the profile and prestige of Imperial Guard Commander Ursarkar Creed.[1]

Overview

Eldar forces from Craftworld Ulthwe attack Cadian holdings on Aurent. Ursarkar Creed implements a complex web of contingency plans and sealed, time-delayed orders coupled with psychic obfuscation provided by an entire coven of Primaris Psykers. Creed’s tactical genius overcomes even the vaunted Eldar powers of prescience, securing an overwhelming Cadian victory at the very gates of Aurent’s Hive Primus.[1]
