These stout warriors, known for their technological prowess and mining expertise, have carved out their own powerful civilization, isolated from the Imperium for millennia. The Leagues are guided by Votann, ancient and enigmatic supercomputers worshiped as gods, whose knowledge is a cornerstone of their advanced society. Their strong sense of kinship and loyalty to their kin makes them formidable foes, especially with their mastery of advanced weaponry and durable exo-armor.
