==Overview==
Far to the galactic east
of [[Terra]] lies the forge
world of Triplex Phall.
Located in the furthest
reaches of [[Ultima Segmentum]], in the
[[Eastern Fringes]], this forge world has grown
autonomous through long periods of
isolation. The [[Tech-Priest]]s of Triplex Phall
have discovered many pockets of worlds on
the outskirts of the [[galaxy]] settled during
the [[Dark Age of Technology]]. Many of these lost
colonies were [[Knight world]]s and some of them
yielded technological secrets such as caches
of [[STC]] designs, or unique archeotech.{{Fn|3}}
Triplex Phall designs appear
throughout the weapons and equipment of
the [[Imperial Guard]], and their fabrication
secrets have never been shared. Even
delegations from [[Mars]] have been forced
to return empty-handed,
or with blueprints that they soon discover
are missing vital details. Although Triplex
Phall pays tribute to Mars like all other
loyal forge worlds, this disobedience has
prompted Mars to permanently deploy
several [[Skitarii]] Legions to accompany
Triplex Phall’s [[Explorator]] fleets and alert
them should further caches
of technology be discovered. The tactic
has proved fortuitous, as Triplex Phall
has suffered a series of invasions, and the
extra troops greatly assisted in the forge
world’s defence. First, a splinter of [[Hive Fleet Kraken]] was eradicated, followed by
an attack by the [[Plague Fleet]] led by
[[Typhus]], and finally a [[Daemon]] incursion.
All three attacks made planetfall, but
were driven back before the foes could
establish firm beachheads. This success
was in part thanks to Triplex Phall being
home to the [[Titan Legion]] [[Legio Victorum]]
and having the support of over a dozen
[[Knight House]]s.{{Fn|3}}
