Cimmeriac

The Cimmeriac were a little-known xenos race from the Eastern Fringe.

Facing the Tyranid invasion of Hive Fleet Jormungandr, they accepted the uneasy truce proposed by High Admiral Vortigern Hanroth to join his loose alliance of various fleets with their Shadowcruisers.

In 995.M41, during the subsequent Battle of Black Nebula, Hanroth and his unlikely allies shattered Hive Fleet Jormungandr. Nevertheless, less than five years later Hanroth himself would lead the obliteration of the Cimmeriac civilisation.
