Ork Empire - Notable Ork Worlds: Planet NameSegmentumSectorSub-SectorSystemNotesAbsteronUnknownVorsk Sub-sectorUnknownUnknownSometime in M41, WAAAGH! Gragnatz invaded and devastated the Vorsk Sub-Sector. As the vast Ork crusade besieged several worlds, rival Warbosses split off to launch their own WAAAGH!s with varying degress of success. Absteron was an Ork-held hollow world.AlacanthUnknownUnknownUnknownUnknownOrk-held world and gathering point for WAAAGH! Gorbad. Led by the Ork Warlord known as Overfiend Gorbag, he oversaw a two-progned WAAAGH! in the Gothic Sector in 976.M41.BaracSegmentum UltimaUnknownAurus Sub-sectorRyza SystemThe three moons of Barac were captured by WAAAGH! Grax in 925.M41, when it descended upon the Ryza System. The vitally important Forge World Ryza, located at the sector's centre, was comprised of more than a dozen star systems. Soon the entire region was engulfed in the bloody conflict. Though the Orks were unable to establish a foothold on the world of Barac, through treachery and stealth, they were able to capture its three moons. As bitter fighting raged across a hundred fronts, many new warbands and whole WAAAGH! were drawn to Grax's banner and to the ever-growing conflagration.CastellaxUnknownVorsk Sub-sectorUnknownUnknownPreviously, Castellax was an Imperial Mining World, but the planet's rich mineral deposits drew the attention of the Iron Warriors 3rd Grand Company of Warsmith Andraaz, who launched a vicious campaign of planetary conquest. Enslaved by their Chaos Space Marine overlords, the populace was forced to work in their master's infernal factories to produce supplies and arms to be sent back to the Iron Warriors' homeworld of Medrengard in the Eye of Terror. The centuries-long rule of the Iron Warriors was finally broken some time in the 41st Millennium, when it fell to a massive invasion by WAAAGH! Biglug. After a vicious campaign against the encroaching Orks and a slave rebellion, Warsmith Andraaz was slain and Castellax was overrun by the Greenskins.ChosinSegmentum SolarArmageddon SectorArmageddon Sub-sectorArmageddon SystemThe fifth world in the Armageddon System, Chosis is an Ice World of erratic orbit. Due to the difficulty of colonising it and the poor range of resources present, the planet presented little interest to the Imperium. Nevertheless, during the Second War for Armageddon, the Imperium defended the isolated world. During the Third War for Armageddon, the Orks once against landed on Chosin. The Orks quickly spread across the planet, their numbers swelling to epidemic proportions. This has put its reclamation in serious doubt by Imperial forces. Ironically, the former Imperial military base is now the site of the Ork's main capital settlement.CilixSegmentum ObscurusUnknownUnknownUnknownIn 997.M41, the Orks invaded the Imperial world of Cilix. Imperial reinforcements made planetfall on Cilix and began a systematic purge to rid the world of Ork infestation. Resistance remains great.CorvaUnknownUnknownUnknownCorva SystemIn 855.M41, the noted Snakebites Warboss Hruk Teefsplitta and WAAAGH! Hruk enslaved the entire population of his old stomping grounds, the binary system Corva. Forcing his captives to build him spacecraft with holds cavernous enough to accommodate his beloved mega-menagerie, Hruk then set off for the core worlds of the Imperium.ExcovarSegmentum PacificusUnknownUnknownUnknownIn 997.M41, the Cadian 122nd Armoured Regiment lead the counterattack on Excovar against WAAAGH! Bigtoof. Projections indicate that the Greenskins should be expelled by the end of the 42nd Millennium.FlyberiaSegmentum UltimaUnknownAurus Sub-SectorRyza SystemWAAAGH! Grax invades the Ryza System in 925.M41. After a series of battles with Battlewagon battalions, the Orks captured the vital Promethium-rich mines of the Ice World of Flyberia. Solar decades on from the initial onslaught of WAAAGH! Grax, Orks continue to enter the Ryza System.Garaghhak's WorldSegmentum TempestusForsarr SectorUnknownKastorel SystemIn 705.988.M41, the Imperial Hive World of Forsarr was besieged by the millions of Orks of WAAAGH! Garaghak. Despite fierce resistance from several Astra Militarum regiments and a Raven Guard strike force led by Shadow Captain Kayvaan Shrike, the world eventually fell in 411.996.M41. The Ork-held planet was renamed Garaghak's World. The Warlord now styles himself as the "Warlord of Forsarr." With the defeat of Forsarr, the whole sector was made indefensible for the Astra Militarum High Command, and soon Imperial Guard forces began to retreat en masse, abandoning the Forsarr Sector despite formal complains by the Ecclesiarchy. In 995.999.M41, WAAAGH! Garaghak mustered on Garaghak's World to continue their war against the Imperium.GolgothaUltima SegmentumUnknownGolgotha Sub-sectorGolgotha SystemFollowing the Second War for Armageddon in 941.M41, the Imperial world of Golgotha was conquered and infested by forces under the command of the infamous Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka. Leading an Imperial retribution force, Ghazghkull's old nemesis, Commissar Sebastian Yarrick was determined to end the threat of the Ork Warlord once and for all. The Imperial forces were joined by a large Crusade force of Black Templars Space Marines led by High Marshal Helbrecht himself. Unfortunately the Imperial force's efforts failed. Since then, apart from a brief, but significantly smaller Crusade force of Black Templars led by Marshal Actoan in 996.M41, the Ork-held world of Golgotha remains in Greenskin hands.GorkamorkaSegmentum Ultima (Outskirts)Eastern FringeUnknownAngelis SystemThe Imperial Dead World of Angelis is an ancient Necron Tomb World located on the outskirts of the Segmentum Ultima on the Eastern Fringe. The barren world was being surveyed by the Adeptus Mechanicus Explorator vessel in 344–345.M35 when an Ork-inhabited space hulk crashed into it, creating a massive canyon dubbed "Da Skid" by the Orks. The surviving Orks set about building a new starship to leave the planet and rejoin their WAAAGH!. Unfortunately for the Orks, rivalries broke out over which Ork God the ship resembled. After the destruction of the great ship, both sides decided to band together and name the vessel Gorkamorka, meaning that it could look like either of the Ork Gods, Gork and Mork. As Orks have a somewhat limited vocabulary, this also became the new Greenskin name for the planet.Gurgit's MekworldSegmentum UltimaUnknownUnknownUnknownGurgit is an Ork Big Mek who led a WAAAGH! against the Tau Empire in 859.999.M41. Upon the Ork-controlled world of Gurgit's Mekworld (named for the Big Mek himself), this became the launch point of his WAAAGH!.ImbriumSegmentum ObscurusScarus SectorUnknownUnknownDuring the 13th Black Crusade, Abaddon recruited massed warbands of Orks to act as mercenary auxilias to his Chaos Legions. Following up on terror raids and cunning feints by the Night Lords and Alpha Legion, many of the Orks banded together into ever-growing tribes that declared themselves as part of the "Green Krusade" (or Kroosade in other sources) in imitation of the grand assault of Chaos. The Green Krusade inundated the Scarus Sector, battering down Imperial defences with a little help from the Chaos Space Marines, particularly of the Night Lords and Black Legion. Now the Orks rule Lethe Eleven and Mordrax, along with most of Imbrium and Ulant.KolchisSegmentum ObscurusGothic SectorUnknownKolchis SystemThe infamous Ork Warlord known as Overfiend Gorbag lead this two-pronged WAAAGH! in the Gothic Sector in 976.M41. Most of the major battles were fought in space where the sheer size of Gorbag's fleet, combined with his daring and predatory tactics proved more than a match for the Imperial Navy.KrakskullSegmentum ObscurusKoronus ExpanseAccursed DemesneUnknownKrakskull is one of several Ork-held worlds of Undred-Undred Teef, a tract of systems at the heart of the Accursed Demesne that is a nest and breeding ground for Orks within the Koronus Expanse. The warring Orks of the Undred-Undred Teef are split into gangs, warbands, and clans that are lead by ever more powerful individual Ork Bosses. Undred Undred Teef is unusual amongst Ork-held systems -- it is home to many more numbers of rich, arrogant Orks known as Flash Gitz than normal.KroskSegmentum ObscurusUnknownUnknownUnknownAn Ork-held world located in the Galactic North.Lethe ElevenSegmentum ObscurusScarus SectorUnknownUnknownDuring the 13th Black Crusade, Abaddon recruited massed warbands of Orks to act as mercenary auxilias to his Chaos Legions. Following up on terror raids and cunning feints by the Night Lords and Alpha Legion many of the Orks banded together into ever-growing tribes that declared themselves as part of the "Green Krusade" (or Kroosade in other sources) in imitation of the grand assault of Chaos. The Green Krusade inundated the Scarus Sector, battering down Imperial defences with a little help from Chaos Space Marines, particularly of the Night Lords and Black Legion. Now the Orks rule Lethe Eleven and Mordrax, along with most of Imbrium and Ulant.Magdelene IXSegmentum TempestusForsarr SectorUnknownKastorel SystemIn 705.988.M41, the Forsarr Sector was besieged by millions of Orks of WAAAGH! Garaghak. In 023.996.M41 the Imperial Shrine World of Magdelene IX fell under the threat of an encroaching Greenskin horde. The world was besieged by a combined Ork force of Skalk Bluetoof's Deathskulls and various Goff warbands, spearheaded by Buzzgob's Dreadheadz. Defended by Frateris Militia, thousands of cultists of the Red Redemption and the Sisters of Battle of the Order of the Black Selpulchre, it eventually fell in 866.996.M41, due to the lack of Imperial reinforcements after the fall of Forsarr and was immediately claimed by Garaghak himself. In 476.998.M41, under pressure from the Ecclesiarchy, the 73rd Harakoni Warhawks were deployed to Magdelene IX in a desperate planetfall which predictably failed with heavy losses. Magdelene IX still remains in Ork hands to this day. In 995.999.M41 Orks of WAAAGH! Garaghak mustered on the planet to continue their war against the Imperium.MarlisanctUnknownUnknownUnknownUnknownFollowing his invasion and successful enslavement of the entire population of the binary system of Corva, Snakebites Warboss Hruk Teefsplitta forces its people to build him spacecraft. He then sets off for the core worlds of the Imperium. Teefsplitta successfully leads WAAAGH! Hruk in conquering the nine Shrine Worlds of Marlisanct and uses the Basilica Imperator Majoris as a breeding pen for his famously incontinent Squiggoths.Mekslag-IkksSegmentum TempestusForsarr SectorKastorel-Novem SectorKastorel SystemIn 064.952.M41, the Imperial world of Kastorel-Novem was besieged by millions of Orks of WAAAGH! Garaghak. Despite fierce resistance from the planet's garrison, including the 49th Terrax Guard, it was evacuated and fell in 723.952.M41. Ork Mek-Boss Buzzgob turned the captured planet (now renamed Mekslag-Ikks by the Orks) into his personal manufacturing base. In an attempt to slow down the WAAAGH!, Imperial forces planned to cripple the Ork facilities on the planet and kill Mek-Boss Buzzgob. To accomplish this, in 541.992.M41, the Imperium launched a surgical Raid on Kastorel-Novem led by Raven Guard Space Marines and the Elysian Drop Troops of the Astra Militarum. The mission resulted in failure, with the Imperial forces all but eliminated. In 023.996.M41 Buzzgob used Mekslag-Ikks as a foothold to capture the Imperial Shrine World of Magdelene IX.Minos VSegmentum TempestusForsarr SectorUnknownUnknownGaraghak, also known as the Arch-Killa and Overfiend of Tallarax, is a powerful Ork Warboss, who lead WAAAGH! Garaghak across the Forsarr Sector of the Segmentum Tempestus. After becoming dominant in his own clan, Garaghak managed to gain enough notoriety amongst other Orks to draw more and more warbands under his banner. Soon he became the dominant Ork Warlord of the Forsarr Sector and ruled several former Imperial worlds, including the captured Forge World of Minos V.MoredakkaSegmentum ObscurusScarus SectorUnknownUnknownDuring the 13th Black Crusade, Abaddon recruited massed warbands of Orks to act as mercenary auxilias to his Chaos Legions. Following up on terror raids and cunning feints by the Night Lords and Alpha Legion many of the Orks banded together into ever-growing tribes that declared themselves as part of the "Green Krusade" (or Kroosade in other sources) in imitation of the grand assault of Chaos. The Green Krusade inundated the Scarus Sector, battering down Imperial defences with a little help from Chaos Space Marines, particularly of the Night Lords and Black Legion. Now the Orks rule multiple worlds, including the weapon forges of Mordrax, (rechristened Moredakka by the Orks), whose weapon forges are infested with lootas of the Deathskulls clan, a truly terrifying prospect to the devotees of the Machine God, who know full well the depths of blasphemy against the Omnissiah to which these barbaric xenos will sink. Hundreds of Gargants are being built from the debris of war by enslaved Servitors and their brutal Greenskin overseers.MorloqUnknownUnknownUnknownUnknownIn 978.M41, the Ork Warlord Grizgutz, a noted kleptomaniac, launched his WAAAGH! into the Morloq System. Whilst using Warp-travel to reach their quarry, Grizgutz and his warband unwittingly traveled through time and emerged from the shifting chaos of the Empyrean shortly before they set off. Grizgutz hunts down and kills his doppelganger, reasoning that this way he could have a spare of his favourite gun. The resultant confusion stops the WAAAGH! in its tracks.ObetrusUnknownVorsk Sub-sectorUnknownUnknownSometime in M41, WAAAGH! Gragnatz invaded and devastated the Vorsk Sub-sector. As the vast Ork crusade besieged several worlds, rival Warbosses split off to launch their own WAAAGH!s with varying degress of success. Obetrus was an Imperial Night World that was invaded by the vast Greenskin hordes. All indigenous lifeforms were eradicated by the marauding Orks.OgrollaSegmentum TempestusForsarr SectorUnknownUnknownGaraghak, also known as the Arch-Killa and Overfiend of Tallarax, is a powerful Ork Warboss, who lead WAAAGH! Garaghak across the Forsarr Sector of the Segmentum Tempestus. After becoming dominant in his own clan, Garaghak managed to gain enough notoriety amongst other Orks to draw more and more warbands under his banner. Soon he became the dominant Ork Warlord of the Forsarr Sector and ruled several former Imperial worlds, including the captured Feral World of Ogrolla.Periliac PrimeUnknownUnknownUnknownPeriliac SystemIn 832.M41, the beleaguered planet of Periliac Prime and its entire system buckles and falls under the crushing might of WAAAGH! Drillakilla, thanks in no small part to the delay of the entire 1st Company of the Dark Angels Chapter, en route to the Ork-infested warzones of Periliac Prime, who made an unscheduled detour to the unremarkable mining planet of Minoria.Proctus PrimeSegmentum UltimaUnknownAurus Sub-sectorRyza SystemWAAAGH! Grax invades the Ryza System in 925.M41 and proceeds to capture multiple Imperial worlds. One of these worlds is Proctus Prime, which was overtaken by the Greenskins, who proceeded to enslave the billions of Humans who were forced to produce weapons for the Orks. Only a newly arrived Catachan Jungle Fighters Imperial Guard regiment ensured that the Imperium maintained a tenuous hold upon the single continent of Ulani IV, although two of Proctus Prime's sister worlds were now under Ork domination. Solar decades on from the initial onslaught of WAAAGH! Grax, Orks continue to enter the Ryza System.PseudopolUnknownVorsk Sub-sectorUnknownUnknownPseudopol was a former comms world located in the Vorsk Sub-sector that has been Ork-held since M37, long before the invasion of WAAAGH! Gragnatz in M41.RedwoldSegmentum ObscurusGothic SectorUnknownKolchis SystemLed by the Ork Warlord Gorbad of the Redskulls tribe, WAAAGH! Gorbad assembles in the systems of Alcanath, Redwold and Tyr, before beginning their invasion and capture of the Kolchis System in 994.M41, which was sacrificed in order to buy time for the Ryza System and its vitally important Forge World of Ryza. This WAAAGH! is believed to have proceeded to attack Ryza itself, and presumably joined forces with WAAAGH! Grax.Scalex VIUnknownUnknownUnknownUnknownWazdakka Gutsmek is an Ork Mekboy, and more specifically an Ork Warbiker, who is perhaps the greatest that ever lived. He led a massive WAAAGH! comprised entirely of Speed Freeks. He dreamed of creating portals from planet to planet so he could drive his warbike from one end of the galaxy to another, slaughtering everything in his path. Wazdakka's newborn WAAAGH! was nearly stopped in its tracks at the Imperial Forge World of Scalex VI, where the Speed Freek Warlord's horde of bikers were engaged by a Titan Legion of the Adeptus Mechanicus led by a Warlord-class Battle Titan. Through his daring and insane bravado, Wazdakka managed to take out the Warlord Titan in an insane and near-suicidal act of recklessness. Scalex VI became the newest addition to Wazdakka's growing Ork interstellar empire, its modified manufactorums and Human slave labour now churning out vehicles of all shapes and sizes to join Wazdakka's WAAAGH! Since that day, Wazdakka's prize possession has been the still-flaming skulls of the Titan's Princeps and his command crew, which remind the Speed Freek Warlord of his greatest feat of arms.ScythiaUnknownVorsk Sub-sectorUnknownUnknownSometime in M41, WAAAGH! Gragnatz invaded and devastated the Vorsk Sub-sector. As the vast Ork crusade besieged several worlds, rival Warbosses split off to launch their own WAAAGH!s with varying degress of success.

The warring Orks of the Undred-Undred Teef are split into gangs, warbands, and clans that are lead by ever more powerful individual Ork Bosses. Undred Undred Teef is unusual amongst Ork-held systems -- it is home to many more numbers of rich, arrogant Orks known as Flash Gitz than normal.StompgitSegmentum ObscurusKoronus ExpanseAccursed DemesneUnknownStompgit is one of several Ork-held worlds of Undred-Undred Teef, a tract of systems at the heart of the Accursed Demesne that is a nest and breeding ground for Orks within the Koronus Expanse.

The warring Orks of the Undred-Undred Teef are split into gangs, warbands, and clans that are lead by ever more powerful individual Ork Bosses. Undred Undred Teef is unusual amongst Ork-held systems -- it is home to many more numbers of rich, arrogant Orks known as Flash Gitz than normal. At the centre of Undred-Undred Teef is a world where Orks have bred in greatest numbers and where the battle between them is fiercer than on any other. In the brutal tongue of the Ork this place is called Tusk and it is the true heart of Undred-Undred Teef.TyrSegmentum ObscurusGothic SectorUnknownKolchis SystemLed by Ork Warlord Gorbad of the Redskulls tribe, WAAAGH! Gorbad assembled in the systems of Alcanath, Redwold and Tyr, before beginning their invasion and capture of the Kolchis System in 994.M41, which was sacrificed in order to buy time for the Ryza System and its vitally important Forge World of Ryza.

Their blades bloodied, Yriel and the warriors of Craftworld Iyanden disappear back into the void without losing a single Eldar life.Zogg-DisUnknownUnknownUnknownUnknownZogg-Dis is the Ork domain of the Ork Warlord Zoggit, who is famous for killing anyone foolish enough to imply he might be a bit of a Weirdboy. In 227.M38, he declared a WAAAGH! and launched it straight into the vermillion Dark Eldar spacecraft encroaching upon his world. He and his Boyz emerge in the Commorrite port-spar of Blackblood, much to the surprise of its resident Kabal. The resultant storm of violence carries hundreds of thousands of Orks into the twisting byways of Commorragh. War is joined in earnest when the Dark City turns its attention to the Orkoid invasion, systematically isolating each arm of the Ork invasion in order to destroy it piece by piece. Several districts of the Dark City are toppled or burnt to cinders by wave upon wave of howling Orks. Eventually the Orks are coralled and over 10,000 Greenskins are captured by the Wych districts. Their arenas are packed to capacity for almost an entire Terran fortnight, as the Dark Eldar revel in the resultant orgy of violence.
