'''+++DISTRESS CALL FROM ADEPTUS MECHANICUS FACTORY VESSEL [#731/B9]+++'''

''"This is techpriest Reduktus Bata, calling out to any Imperial or Mechanicus ships in this sector, by the machine god, even Xenos would do! We are under attack, I repeat, we are under attack. We have a 90% chance of the attackers being heretics and traitors. They ambushed us when our ship entered the Gorvium system to collect ores from the asteroid belt. Clever bastards, they hid in the outer layer of a gas giant."''

''"Before we knew it, our frigates were blown to smithereens and our ship was boarded. As far as I know I am the only surviving Magos in this section. Please send assistance!"''

''"By the Omnissiah, they are melting the bulkhead! Please, send hel-"''

'''+++END OF DISTRESS CALL+++'''

The stolen factory ship known as ''Ark Defilement'' is barren. Kind of. Its halls are wandered by the crew, Heretechs who bent the knee to Nurgle, and "The Magos". The rest of the population of the factory ship consists of a horrible amalgamation of Nurgle hive mind and unwilling techpriests ''fused to the goddamn walls''. The poor bastards were taken and fused into the horrid ship, and now all they can do is rot and make arms and ammo.

"The Magos" and his personal little retinue were linked to a separate hive mind, and now maintain the gear of the Warband. This includes first mate Ironsides.

==== The Think Tank ====

Deep inside the Ark Defilement is an area called "the think tank". Do not confuse this area with a place for research. Its purpose is much darker than that.

In that room are rows upon rows of vat tanks that have one single use: to grow experimental cultists and dark servitors for the fleet. The think tank's overseer is a former Magos Biologis called Erodas Vea. He managed to escape the forge world he was conducting his experiments on when the Techpriests found out about his "studies".

So far none of the clones have been able to be a fully capable and thinking human. The things that have come out have always been lifeless and soulless humans. However, following an accident involving a mug of Ol' Ironsides' brew and a exposed vat tank, some sort of cognitive motion has developed in the clones.

At the present date, the once sterile and clean vat tanks are now filthy, and the water that the clones now grow in has turned into a green and black sludge.

Both Erodas and Boil Beard are interested in what will come of the new batch of clones.

=== ''Bonnie Whore's Kisses'' ===

=== ''The Tumor'' ===

=== ''Oozing Wound'' ===
The ''Oozing Wound'' is a ship in orbit around a green sun. No one knows what happened to the crew, and those that try to explore it don't return. For many Imperials in the nearby region, it is considered bad luck to use the star when traveling in the Warp

===''The Rabhas''===
If one was to examine the Spores of Maddness when the fleet is at rest the the Rabhas would be slightly to one side, not far enough away to be separate, but enough for it to be clearly apart from the others. This is because while the vast majority of the Spores praise Nurgle alone the crew of the Rabhas worship Khorne just as much as Nurgle. Though this technically makes them undivided it's clear where the vast majority of there praise goes and as such there deviance is tolerated by Boil Beard since Khorne and Nurgle don't hate each other to the degree Nurgle does Tzeentch. Due to there joint Loyalties the crew of the Rabhas are infected a disease Nurgle created  as 'joint project' with Khorne during a rare time when the gods where working in joint purpose, a sickness that among the infected cause great rage, fury, pain resistant and, oddly a fear of water which the crew of the Rabhas get around by drinking enough grog to drown a Hive World. Another reason Boil Beard allows the split loyalties of the Rabhas is that enemy's who expect the slow and methodical advance of Nurgle forces can frequently be thrown off guard by a charge of berzerkers firing plasma pistols and swinging power cutlass's.
