Yria Massacre
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Yria Massacre occurred when a strike force from the Silver Skulls Chapter defended the Imperium world Yria from a Dark Eldar invasion. Disaster struck the Silver Skulls during the battle when a Cronos Parasite Engine used its life stealing technology to decrepitly age several members of the strike force, including Captain Alkon. Shortly afterwards, the Dark Eldar received additional reinforcements that helped to overwhelm the Silver Skulls and earned the battle its name.[1]
