Acropolis Vega is an Imperium world.[1]
The world was once attacked by Chaos forces and two Companies from the Swords of Praesium Chapter launched a counter-attack to save it. Not long after they made planetfall, however, a Warpstorm engulfed the system, cutting off Acropolis Vega from the Imperium for nearly 70 years. Isolated and almost certainly overwhelmed by their opposition, several squads from the two Companies swore their loyalty to Chaos in return for their survival. When the Warpstorm finally abated, those squads had formed the Chaos Space Marine Warband known as the Swords of Khargoth and led the attack upon the Imperial reclamation fleet sent to Acropolis Vega.[1]
Though the armies of the Emperor eventually retook Acropolis Vega, the Swords of Khargoth escaped destruction and their Strike Cruisers now menace Imperium shipping and small outposts in the area.[1]
