Editing Ork Empire of Charadon (section)

==Charadon==
Charadon itself is the capital world of the great Ork empire, situated in the Imperium's Segmentum Ultima. Charadon is one of many small, independent and mutually hostile Ork domains scattered across the galaxy. It is ruled by the tyrannical Ork Warlord Snagrod the Arch-Arsonist, a particularly vicious and sadistic leader of a race noted for its generally vicious and sadistic tendencies.

Snagrod's bloody wars of conquest have transformed Charadon into the most powerful state within the anarchic confines of Ork space. Charadon is located near the Imperial world of Badlanding and through Warp-travel is only a few weeks away from Rynn's World, homeworld of the [[Crimson Fists]] Space Marine Chapter, which Snagrod's WAAAGH! assaulted in 989.M41. The ensuing battle saw the near total destruction of the Crimson Fists and the destruction of their fortress-monastery, however, Snagrod was unable to secure victory and, additionally, lost in a personal battle to Chapter Master [[Pedro Kantor]] as well, forced to flee off-world with his beaten forces after the arrival of Imperial reinforcements. It should be noted that the assault by the Orks of Charadon on Rynn's World was aided by the fact that most of the Crimson Fists Space Marines had already died due to an accidental misfire of their own weapons, with the Orks only fighting, and losing, to a very small minority of remaining Space Marines.
