'''Baran''' is an [[Eldar]] [[Exodite World]] which was later populated by [[Orks]], then the [[Imperium]].

The first assaults quickly established the [[Imperial]] forces as masters of the steppe-lands. The [[Feral Ork]] tribes fled to the hinterlands. [[General]] Von Paulus, commanding General of the [[Death Korps of Krieg|Krieg]] 127th Infantry Regiment, lacked the troops to threaten one area without exposing another, so he had a system of fortifications set up to contain the Orks instead. As the only regiment assigned to the crusade, the 127th Infantry Regiment were given the [[Right of Settlement]] of Baran. As settlers began to arrive, these fortified positions became the basis for Imperial cities, with a curious blend of civilian structures and military fortifications. As generations passed the original conquering regiment died away and was replaced by home grown [[PDF]] forces. and eventually these regiments were inducted into the [[Imperial Guard]] as the [[Baran Siege Masters]].{{Fn|1}}
