Korvon II is an Imperium world located to the galactic north of Ultramar.[1]

Founded nearly the M31,[3a] Korvon II is a planet polluted with heavy industry and waste products and produce refining ore and construction materials for the world of the Imperium. The planet is ringed with a network of chained space stations working for delivery and dispatch of ore in its raw and refined forms. Korvon II has a long history of friendly relation and trade with the Empire of Ultramar.[3b]

Invasion of the Death Guard

Korvon II was invaded by the Death Guard[2], sometime after the Great Rift's creation. The Planet Governor - Ludmilla Tarch was able to send a distress signal for aid,[3b] which has been answered by an Ultramarines strike force led by Lieutenant Calsius.[1]

Korvon PDF although inadequately equipped against the Traitoris Astartes, offer desperate resistance to the enemy, pockets of which still continue to fight the invading troops through the planet.[3b]
