War for Bhorc Prime was a first campaign of [[Waaagh! Bork]], lead by Warlord [[Klawjaw]].{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}

===Rise of Klawjaw===
Planet of [[Bork]] aka Bhorc Prime was a sight of constant struggle between [[Orks]] and [[Imperium]]. It went on until one Ork, known as [[Klawjaw]], managed to unite all Ork fractions on the planet and started a massive invasion. To counter it, [[Imperium]] mustered great armies that included forces from four [[Space Marine]] [[Chapter]]s. The resulting War for Bhorc Prime resolved arounf four mighty battles{{Fn|2}}
===Battle at da Sub Dockyard===
Klawjaw's [[Ork Submersible|Submersibles]] was a key to his success, allowing Orks to travel between the captured proto-forges and the main warzone of Bhorc Prime. To destroy them, a force of [[Dark Angels]] was teleported from orbit. They succeeded in their mission - the dockyard was in the hands of the Imperium and Klawjaw's supply lines were cut.{{Fn|2}}
===Da Great Air Strip Bash===
The [[Imperial Guard]] was tasked with the destruction of the Ork airfields to prevent Klawjaw's escape, while Orks used the captured proto-forges to create a ramshackle convoy of vehicles. Their armoured might crashed Guard forces. The airfield was secure and Klawjaw's forces were airborne.{{Fn|2}}
===Scrap at da Scrap Yard===
Warlord's [[Gargant]] fields were clanking away at the heart of the scrap continent of Rustia, building bigger and better idols to stomp Imperial forces. A contingent of [[Howling Griffons]] was dispatched to prevent this from happening. They managed to seize the high ground, and, with commanding fire positions, they could press their atteck on the Gargant fields and slow the invasion.{{Fn|2}}
===Da Krater Maker===
Klawjaw posessed Da Krater Maker - his pride and joy, the biggest land-based gun the sector has ever seen. Orks planned to use it to destroy Bork's capital, Furnacehive. Combined force of [[Ultramarines]] and [[Blood Angels]] fought in an apocalyptic battle with Orks in approaches to the Hive. They threw everything they had at Krater Maker, but in the end it just rumbled ever onvards. With a mighty kaboom! the hive spire came tumbling down.{{Fn|2}}
===Outcome===
Despite their victories, Imperium's forces faced defeat on Bhorc Prime. The whole planet was soon under Ork control and Warboss [[Klawjaw]] began his [[Waaagh! Bork]] against the [[Imperium]]. It would later lead to creation of one of the biggest Ork domains, [[Ork Empire of Bork]].{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}
