Yeah, and they're more sacred than shrine worlds and more heavily defended than fortress worlds.


Orks invade a world that exclusively grows tea leaves, next thing you know, the largest army since the great crusade shows up and utterly smacks the orks into the middle of next week, the few that survive wake up thinking 'what did we do.' The Tyranid Hive Mind sees this and diverts an entire tendril away from another such planet, unfortunately its towards one that exclusively grows cucumbers.


Hmmm, thinking in the way of a radical inquisitor, an idea strikes me.

1. Devote an entire sector to growing nothing but pot.
2. Plant a Genestealer cult in each world, and watch as the hive fleet homes in
3. Send in the sector fleet to mop up the bugs that are all too baked to retaliate

Of course, it could all go horribly wrong and just make the Tyranids extra hungry...

I can see the Inquisitors all standing around after the 'nids get extra hungry all looking at one shame faced inquisitor until one of them speaks up and says 'well, this is another fine mess you have gotten us into'

I told you we should have stuck with the bug spray, but noooo, you had to try something different.
