Artos-Rho IV was one of a trio of Forge Worlds known as the Deuterium Stars.[1]
During the Great Crusade, these Forge Worlds were the only ones capable of producing the Las-Impulsor for Imperial Knights. The world was overrun and destroyed during the Horus Heresy - this, combined with the loss of the other Deuterium Stars, meant that the Imperium lacked the capability to manufacture or maintain existing las-impulsors, until the weapon's STC template was recovered from the Flensed Worlds in M34.[1]
