In orbit, Death Guard forces experienced fierce resistance capturing the orbital defence station 570 "Star Breaker". Imperial forces under [[General]] [[Barphemius Dyroch]] conducted a fierce defense, but were ultimately overcome by [[6th Plague Company]] [[Terminator]]s.{{Fn|2}}
The [[Industrial World]] of [[Okharium]] suffered many [[Dark Eldar]] raids before the Death Guard assault and as a result it had been reinforced with [[regiment]]s of [[Savlar Chem-Dogs]] and [[Death Korps of Krieg]]. When the Death Guard landed they found most of the Imperial Guard defences to have been degraded by Dark Eldar assaults, and to further compound the Imperials subversive [[Cult]]s rose up with the appearance of the Arch-Enemy. At the 15th Chem Canal Magna-Junction, the [[Okharium Canalguard]] and Salvar [[Savlar Chem-Dogs ]] went toe to toe with the Death Guard [[4th Plague Company]] and waves of [[Plague Zombie]]s and [[Poxwalker]]s. In a vicious battle the Imperials were able to secure over fifty rigs in the Canal, aided by [[Tempestus Scions]] of the [[31st Omeghon Gorgons]], [[503rd Nuvin Lions]], and [[79th Psion Banshees]].{{Fn|2}}
