Ulant was an Imperium Hive World that became a battleground when it was invaded by the forces of Chaos during the 13th Black Crusade.[1b]
Disaster struck during that conflict, when an explosion in the upper sire of Ketryst Hive destroyed all of the Departmento Munitorum's records for the entire Subsector. Without those records, it was easier for any Planetary Governor in the Subsector to hold back and horde their revenues from the Imperium; as it was now impossible to prove exactly what each world owed.[1a] As the Crusade wore on, Ulant was besieged by Warp Storms and invaded by the forces of Chaos. Just as all hope looked lost for the Imperium's forces fighting there, the Missionary Joachim suddenly appeared, leading a crusade of the faithful. The Missionary turned the tide against the forces of Chaos, as his very presence dispelled the Warp Storms near Ulant and the crusade he led brought greatly needed aid to the outnumbered Imperium forces.[1b]
Sometime later, however, in the wake of the Thirteenth Black Crusade, Ulant was invaded by the Green Kroosade and large swathes of the world are now controlled by Orks.[2]
