Savlar was once a [[Mining World]] notable only for the rich chemical deposits found on its moons.{{Fn|2}}
Unfortunately the planet failed in meeting its Imperial [[tithes]], and so in [[M39]]{{Fn|2}} Savlar was converted into a penal colony populated by traitors, criminals and [[Adeptus Arbites]] troops guarding them.{{Fn|1}} Since the mining workforce was bolstered by prisoners, the planet has come to supply raw material for three [[Civilised World]]s and two [[Forge World]]s in the nearby [[Sector|subsectors]]. The initial supply of prisoners consisted of those captured during the [[Bokur rebellion]], but over the years regular shipments have come to Savlar from across the [[Armageddon SubsectorSector]].{{Fn|2}}
Some time later, an armed uprising took place. This would force [[Judge]] [[Callistar]] to form the Chem-Dogs as a response force to put the rebellion down.{{Fn|1}} During the [[Third War for Armageddon]], the Chem-Dogs would be deployed to [[Armageddon]] to meet the Imperium's desperate need for more troops.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}
