The [[Squat]]s of the [[Leagues of Votann]] have discovered that the organic material of certain parts of Bio-Ships can be rendered into rare and exotic chemical compounds. This has led to many [[Hernkyn]] cells into hunting the ships in order to harvest them.{{Fn|4}}
Bio-ships are corruptible by the [[Obliterator Virus]], infesting their neural pathway and severing them from the [[Hive Mind]]. A corrupted bio-ship is then further modified by specially created machinery produced in the [[Eye of Terror]] that mixes organic components with ancient, physics-defying technology. These modifications allow for control of the bio-ship, so that it can be pressed into [[Chaos]] service as an enslaved [[Titan]] transporter.{{Fn|5}}
