Editing Hive Fleet Kraken (section)

== A threat not vanquished ==

It was these two fierce struggles that saw the defeat of the bulk of Kraken's forces, although perhaps it's true threat had not yet been realized. Many splinter fleets of Kraken escaped destruction into the depths of Imperial space and attacked defenseless worlds, becoming huge and bloated and a threat in their own right. These splinter fleets continue to attack the Imperium from within to this day, draining valuable resources and weakening the prey…

A tendril of the Kraken fleet also made its way to Vior'los, the largest planet in the Farsight Enclaves. This was the event that got the [[Farsight|commander]] to come out of retirement and form the 8. They held the line against the beasts while the Earth Castes developed a toxin strong enough to overcome the Tyranid immune system (so they actually overadapted the kings of adaptation...?). Once it was finished they set to a timed release so that it would activate once all the biomass was lumped together, that way they would all die at the same time and nothing would be left to become immune. Once again, the Farsight Enclaves get shit done.

The Eldar aren't done suffering either, if the upcoming ''Warzone Valedor'' is any indication. Indeed, when Kraken's survivors emerged over the planet of Duriel (as the Eldar called it) of the Valedor system, they found [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]] already there eating up the delicious Imperial hives. The Iyanden farseers had already forseen this and knew how dangerous two hive fleets eating each other could be, and rallied all the Eldar they could ahead of time to intercept the events. Only one craftworld could respond in time: Biel-Tan. Since this wasn't nearly enough to fight off two hive fleets, they also had to strike a bargain with the [[Dark Eldar]] to turn the tide. Ultimately, they had to destroy the entire planet in a last ditch attempt to stop the fleets from merging.

Also, in a pattern of being fucked over by everything and everyone, the [[Lamenters]] just happened to bump into another of Kraken's splinter fleets by fucking chance. [[Just as planned]]. As of recent the Lamenters have less than 400 marines to combat the Nids, but they'll fight to the end like the <s> idiotically stubborn fucktards</s> {{BLAM}} ''goddamn badasses they are.''
