Second Battle of Shadowbrink

The Second Battle of Shadowbrink was the second clash between the Tyranids and Chaos on the world of Shadowbrink, taking place sometime after the formation of the Great Rift.[1]
Overview
On the world of Shadowbrink, where Hive Fleet Leviathan once defeated a vast daemonic host, Warp energy erupts thanks to the creation of the Great Rift. Drawn by the worlds malevolent aura, Hive Fleet Kronos arrives, making eight landings each led by a neural node of Maleceptors and Zoanthropes. Around these organisms the Shadow in the Warp reaches such intensity that the Warp rifts on Shadowbrink begin to close. Enraged, Khorne's legions storm towards the Tyranids but the xenos refuse to answer the charge. Instead, the Daemons are met with a storm of Fleshborer fire and artillery-beasts that blast apart the Daemons by the thousands. Slowly but surely the Daemons are banished back into the warp.[1]
