Dagon is currently scouting various system, with [[Vanguard Drone Ship]]s that have been found in over twenty systems. When the Tyranid [[Hive Ship]]s enter a system they immediately assault any habitable planets, while ignoring any Imperial space stations and outposts on otherwise barren planets and moons. Imperial vessels have only been attacked after they directly engaged the Tyranid void travelers. These are a few of the reasons why the commanders of the Achilus Crusade believe that the [[Hive Mind]] is operating in a conservative fashion, or else unable to recognize these as worthwhile targets. On [[Castobel]], [[Atonement]], and [[Hethgard]], Imperial defenders managed to repel enough of the [[Mycetic Spore]] s that the battles for control of these planets have become protracted engagements. On [[Avalos]] and [[Treyen]], Imperial defenders even managed to repulse the initial Tyranid attack, causing the void-faring Tyranid creatures to leave those systems.{{Fn|2a}}
