Kimoa Prime or Kimoa was a formerly important civilized world and home to the Kimoan Clone Legions, that declared itself renegade from the Imperium. It was subjected Exterminatus during the so called "War for the Stars"

History
Kimoa was first discovered during the early days of the great crusade, being brought under compliance by the IIIrd Legion Astartes. An Ocean world whose people had studied and mastered the science of cloning humans or creating "replicae" during the long years of the Age of Strife. It was these secrets and the STC for the Sentinel walker that was discovered by the IIIrd Legion and gifted to the Magos Biologus of Stygies VII which would be the beginnings of a lasting and tragic relationship for the two worlds.

The secrets that Kimoa had long harbored of the process of cloning was shared with the Mechanicus and it was those secrets that would help develop the techniques used by the worlds of Krieg and Xi'an. Indeed the Kimoan's made good use of their secrets in their creation of their own military forces. The military and menial forces of Kimoa are composed entirely out of human clones or "replicae". The PDF composed of this replicae are called the Kimoan Guard. The Kimoans also tithed a substantial portion of these replicae in the form of Astra Militarum regiments known as the Kimoan Clone Legions.

Kimoa experiences a more frequent than usual occurrence of the psyker mutation, and psykers along with the Kimoan Clone Legions formed most of Kimoa's tithes to the Imperium of Man. Psykers are taken by the Black Ships of the Imperium and trained by the Adeptus Astra telepathica, some are then sent back to Kimoa to serve as Primaris Psykers in the Kimoan Clone Legions, and as members of an Imperial Cult known as the Psijics. The Psijics were a mysterious and influential organization in Kimoan society, working closely with the local Imperial Cult, and whose leader sat on the Kimoan High Council. The Psijics taught restraint in their use of psychic powers, using only forms of telekinesis in defense and in battle. They focused their powers through communion witht eh god-emperor, who they viewed as gifting them with their powers, and through ritualized mastery of force weapons which they wielded with deadly effect on the Battlefield. Unfortunately it was one of this Psijics whose machinations and ambition would lead Kimoa to the embrace of Chaos, and eventually lead to Kimoa's damnation and destruction.
