Hevy Casol
One of the first ork fortresses created on the planet, Hevy Casol was built around the falling Rok that brought the first orks to the planet. It's construction went unnoticed for years, allowing it to grow into the massive construct of metal that it is now.
Hevy Casol remained as a lynchpin for the ork forces to attack the surrounding areas of Miniin for years, assisting in the construction of many ork vehicles. In its prime, Hevy Casol was aiding in the production of such heavy vehicles as battle fortresses and gargants.
The First Step Forward
The destruction of Hevy Casol was seen as the first major step towards defeating the ork threat. Having withstood assaults from the orks heavy weapons, local forces began to retaliate with their own. Through the assistance of the Torlan Hammers, the Olicanan Guard were able to deploy a full attack force of armoured regiments, who proceeded to launch a full assault against Hevy Casol while its main population were still in transit. This attack ruined the shoddy ork stronghold, heavy bombardment tearing down the massive fortress. By the time this assault was complete, not a single guardsman had been slain.A Site to Remember
After the end of the war, the ruins of Hevy Casol have become a popular, if dangerous, tourist destination. The site being seen as the tipping point of the war. Citizens are not recommended to stray so far from the city, but the site still sees hundreds of visitors each day to view what remains of the ork stronghold.
