Battle for Styx
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Battle for Styx occurred when the Tau Empire attempted to annex the Dark Angels Chapter's recruitment world of Styx in M41. When the Dark Angels recevied word of the invasion, The Rock itself arrived in orbit to defend Styx and the Dark Angels' response was so violent that the Tau's forces were wiped out in a single day.[1]
