Thaniun XII

summary: Monarchical hive/civilized world previously engaged in well entwined trade and defense compacts with the Mechanicum under the planetary governorship of King Angemon until the world came under the assault of beings of darkness and murder. The assault continued for solar years and only ended with the defeat of the mysterious and frightful invaders at great cost to the Thanium's people and aristocracy.

His great General, Kyredeon, with the support of his War-Barons, grew disquieted in the peace of it all afterwards, and overthrew the Governor once it became clear that the King was seeking to resume tithe collecting for tribute to the Mechanicus of Hephaestia when the Tech Priests had failed to hold their end of the bargain. Unknown to them, the Mechanicus suffered in kind under the Lightless Century and had been unable to hear their calls, nor act upon them even if they had the priority.

With the sending out of recovery fleets to survey the damage of the Imperium Nihilus, the depleted Mechanicus returned to exact their tribute as demanded and brook with the established governor, only to find their compacts cast aside and their established governor overthrown with their tech-adepts murdered in the uprising.

Archmagos Gearhardt and the power of House Dumontine broke the back of the world and conquered it, established a cyber-bonded puppet monarch and re-installed the tech priests into his court.

**Fortress World:** Well-guarded and armed to the teeth, these worlds are the haunts of the best of the Astra Militarum, and may even be graced by a passing Space Marine chapter. Military service is often on these worlds what agriculture is on a primitive world: Everybody does it, has done it for generations, and will do it until everybody dies.

**High Imperial:** The peak of Imperium technological advancement outside of the greatest hive worlds and Adeptus Mechanicus worlds. Anything and everything that can be bought on the open market can be found on these worlds, and the local troops have access to the most advanced weapons, armour and equipment such as hellguns, plasma weapons, power weapons, melta weapons, bolters and Carapace Armour can be found deployed to the PDF (and indirectly the Imperial Guard recruits) and Enforcers more commonly than other planets and the rich strata almost certainly equip their security forces with the open markets top end.
