→Overview
Following the events of the [[Second War for Armageddon]], Warboss [[Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka|Ghazghkull]] was planning his spectacular return to the [[Armageddon]] system. Meanwhile his old nemesis [[Commissar]] [[Yarrick]] was hot on his heels, determined to end the threat of the Ork Warboss once and for all.{{Fn|1}}
Ghazghkull left the world of [[PiscinaIV]] for the Golgotha System in order to exploit the planets natural resources, unaware that Yarrick had finally located him and was closing in. The Ork warlord intended to seizre the planet, enslave the populous, and convert it into a giant ammunition factory to fuel his next great [[Waaagh!]]. Using [[Tellyporta]] technology supplied by the [[Mekboy]] [[Orkimedes]], Ghazghkull quickly overcame the [[abhuman]] [[Planetary Defense Forces]]. Within weeks the sheer numbers of Orks and the [[Gargant]]s of Ghazghkull's armies had pounded the planet into submission. But Yarrick soon arrived and at the climax of the battle led a squadron of [[Baneblade]] super-heavy tanks into the fray, intending to hunt down Ghazghkull and leave the Ork armies leaderless. However even these behemoths were not enough to stop the Beast of Armageddon and Yarricks squadron was overrun by Ghazghkull's [[Evil Sunz]] allies. Yarrick himself was crushed under an Ork [[Battlefortress]] and his unconcious body was brought before Ghazghkull himself.{{Fn|1}}
Surprisingly, after weeks of torture, Ghazghkull decided that his old nemesis was too much fun to waste. He released Yarrick from the stinking dungeons of his [[Space Hulk]]. Ghazghkull soon intended to invade [[Armageddon]] once more and wanted to make sure Yarrick was there to give him another good fight. Seven years later, Ghazghkull made good on his promise and began the [[Third War for Armageddon]].{{Fn|1}}
