Kurkaris is an Imperial[1] Ice World,[2] that also serves as an Agri World.[1]
History
It is known for having dense[1] equatorial[2] forests, which often forces Kurkaris' PDF to use Rough Riders in place of armoured vehicles, as the latter have difficulties engaging in such environments.[1]
Kurkaris was once overrun by Orks until it was liberated by an Astra Militarum Crusade. The Vostroyan 22nd were instrumental in the Xenos' eventual defeat.[1]
