Dantioch (Ship)
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
|
This article is about the tyranid ship; for the Warsmith, see Barabas Dantioch. |
Dantioch was the Imperial designation for a tyranid ship of Miral Rex, a splinter of Hive Fleet Kraken.[1]
Dantioch was part of Miral Rex when it attacked the Miral System. As with all of the vessels of the splinter fleet, it is named after a monster or dark figure of Sotharan myth.[1]
Notes
As all of the bioships of Miral Rex are named for characters of Sotharan mythology, it is possible that Dantioch is named after Barabas Dantioch, the first Warden of the Pharos.[2]
