The super massive galaxy spanning Hive Fleet Ninja that attacked and destroyed the Squat Homeworlds that spanned the Center of the Milky Way Galaxy! It was such an awesome battle that every single Squat in existence was snuffed out with a word from the Hive Mind Jervis, never to show it's face in the 40k universe again.

What made the battle so extremely unusual was that not a single race was harmed except for the Squats. Even the Imperium escaped unscathed!

Then, all of a sudden, the Tyranid Hive Fleet Ninja dissappeared, leaving no trace of it's existence...not even in the Tyranid codex.

Truely, this was the greatest Battle of the Warhammer 40,000 Universe.

Pretty sure the 4th edition codex has a galactic map with a marker that says 'Squad Homeworld (Destroyed)'. I can't remember the planet name given. Obviously they had more than one world, but it has been noted in a codex.

And considering how much GW wanted to forget about the dwarfs in leather chaps riding trikes, are you really that surprised at the little fanfare given to their passing?

That would be Golgotha. It wasn't destroyed by Tyranids, it was Destroyed by Orks and Commisar Yarrick was also captured on it. The story comes from an old White Dwarf battle report they did for the 2nd edition Epic game. Jervis Johnson was showcasing the new Squat Super Heavy Vehicles and chose the most crap army he could while his ork opponent Andy Chambers chose a very well thought out Ork Horde with a Great Gargant, a Mekboy Gargant and a bunch of speed freaks.

It also isn't the squat Homeworld. They didn't have just one homeworld, they had a bunch of them.
