Cyber Swarm of Arriaknos

The Cyber Swarm of Arriaknos was the twisted remains of the inhabitants of the planet Arriaknos, who in an effort to survive Old Night became bonded to their technology.

History
Arriaknos was founded as a mining colony during the Dark Age of Technology, due to its large deposits of uranium and other nuclear materials. Over time it developed into a minor Forge World dedicated to building exterminatus weapons. When the Age of Strife began, the civil war that broke out on Arriaknos as a result led to the detonation of a cache of exterminatus devices, irradiating the whole world and killing billions of people. The oceans became acidic and toxic, the land was barren and scorched. The survivors were left to scavenge the world, devolving into roving warbands searching for food, water and tech. Several years before the Imperium discovered Arriaknos, a techno-barbarian warlord called Ingvac gained control of the largest warband, and used recently uncovered pseudo-knights to conquer the world.

Military
The army of Arriaknos has been twisted and corrupted by the large amounts of nuclear radiation from the world, leading to the extensive use of cybernetics and bionics or rare radproof suits. The world’s terrain makes normal vehicle weapons or tracks, meaning that the army has developed peculiar tanks and walkers to traverse the surface.
