'''Malvolion''' was an [[Agri World]] destroyed by [[Tyranids]].{{cite this}}

==History==
Malvolion's inhabitants discovered a [[Tyranid]] beacon on their planet and sent for aid from the [[Imperial Guard]], who arrived in the form of the 15th [[Mordian Iron Guard]], several '''Phyrus''' regiments including the 4th and a '''Paladian''' tank regiment. They could not however, save the planet. Even as the evacuation was underway, a sudden outbreak of [[Genestealer]]s and [[Lictor]]s sent the planet into a panic before, only minutes later, a full scale invasion was taking place. Even the belated intervention of the [[Lamenters]] [[Space Marines]] was not nearly enough to stop the plague, and the [[Dead World|barren world]] now stands as yet another symbol of the Great Devourer and its mighty fleets.{{Fn|2}}
