Drawing upon the ancient chronicles of the Chapter for guidance, Thulsa Kane led the trapped Executioners in a furious counter-assault against a single point on the enemy line. The Executioners grappled at close quarters with their monstrous metal foes where the Space Marines' speed and ferocity could be brought into play. Thulsa Kane himself sought out and confronted the enemy leader, a towering personification of death clad in blighted gold and tattered cloth. After a titanic clash of arms which left Kane's Crozius Arcanum broken and his right eye withered in his skull, he managed to strike the monster down, enabling his brethren to escape, and as much as many wanted to fight on to the bitter end, Kane's will prevailed.

The Executioners grappled at close quarters with their monstrous metal foes where the Space Marines' speed and ferocity could be brought into play.

After a titanic clash of arms which left Kane's Crozius Arcanum broken and his right eye withered in his skull, he managed to strike the monster down, enabling his brethren to escape, and as much as many wanted to fight on to the bitter end, Kane's will prevailed. Less than a third of the Astartes force succeeded in breaking out of the trap their undying foes had set for them and retreated off-planet. This victory alone is counted as nearly miraculous, and brought back to the Imperium one of the first confirmed and detailed battle reports by a surviving force against the awakening ancient menace later identified as the Necrons. Carrion Deep remains under quarantine by Imperial edict.
