Karanos V is a former [[Imperial]] world, overrun by [[Orks]].
==History==
Karanos V, in the [[Karanos System]], was settled by [[human]]s millennia ago during the [[Golden Age of Expansion]]. These humans struggled and succeeded against ancient [[Xenos]] civilisations, remaining long after the extinction of their foes. During the time of the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]], great orbital defence platforms were set up to protect its then-verdant soil and did so, until the arrival of [[Waaagh!]] [[Big Zag]], whose voidcraft bypassed these defences, dropping out of the [[Warp]] mere miles from the planet's surface and turning the defences on the [[Imperium]]'s own fleet.{{Fn|1a}}
An [[Astra Militarum]] force passing through the system attempted to hold Karanos V, marshalling survivors in Hive Septimus with the invaluable assistance of a member of the [[Mentors]] [[Astartes]] [[Chapter]]. Unfortunately, their sacrifice was in vain as the hive was squashed by an [[Ork]] [[Kill Kroozer]] called ''[[Da Original Biggun]]'' crash landing on top of them. In all, several billion humans were killed in the fighting; none were left alive.{{Fn|1a}}
After the conquest, Big Zag, in the ensuing nuclear winter, made his base of operations from a huge Imperial transporter, a [[Capitol Imperialis]].{{Fn|1b}} Mektown is a major feature of the Ork camp, the "guts" of the Waaagh!, secured by a long wall of scrap to keep the good bits inside.{{Fn|1c}}
The planet was the site of Revolushun sparked by an incarnation of [[Da Red Gobbo]] formerly known as [[Goggulz]].{{Fn|1d}}
