Subject: Battles in the lore with all playable factions involved.
So the battle of Medusa V features every playable faction getting involved in some way shape or form. Orks, Eldar, Dark Eldar, Necrons, Choas, Tau, The Imperium, and the Tyranids. Are there any other battles like that in the lore.

I think the dark crusade expansion of the old pc game dawn of war is canon. The planet was called Kronus and involve most factions bar dark eldar and tyranids.
Pretty sure that during the second tyrannic war when hive fleet kraken entered the galaxy all factions got involved. No single engagment with all factions fighting togheter springs to mind though. It’s more that the hive fleet attacked on such a massive scale that every faction couldn’t help but get involved to some extent. If I recall correctly two astartes chapters where lost to the hive fleet before it was stopped. The most decisive engagments occurred on the planet of Ichar IV and craftworld Lyandel.

His pattern of returning alive after being declared dead occurred often enough during Cain's career that the Munitorum made a special ruling that Ciaphas Cain is to never be considered dead, despite evidence to the contrary.
