Vakon Alpha is planet with vast, dead thornwood forests and winters that would freeze a guardsman down to their marrow.[1a][1b][1c]
History
The world of Vakon has had multiple campaigns occur, being referred to as the Vakonian Winter Wars.[1d]
The planet was the location of a triple-fronted battle group comprised of Moebian, Noctan and Valhallan regiments. An instrumental part of victory was the use of the "Vakonin Winter" pattern camouflage.[1a]
Prior to using this camo, another similar pattern used, Departmento Munitorum Designation: 82616/c, "Redwood Blizzard". However, due that prior campaign being a disaster, "Redwood Blizzard" camo pattern is now believed to be unlucky.[1b]
