Escort Classes

Cobra Class Destroyer

The Cobra Class Destroyer is an escort based vessel that is seen in numerous amounts through the Imperium of Man. It is a cheap design that is armed with a few weapon systems such as a light prow torpedo launcher and a light macro-cannon turret. When this vessel is fielded in large amounts it can pack quite the punch and put a dint into the enemy with her torpedoes.

Widowmaker Class Destroyer

The Widowmaker Class Destroyer is a modified Cobra Class Destroyer that was first conceived in the Gothic Sector. Unlike the Cobra Class Destroyer, it has had its macro-weaponry removed and replaced with sensors and other scanning devices. This vessel has few offensive options as it only has its light prow torpedo launcher to engage vessels with.

Sword Class Frigate

The Sword Class Frigate is one of the oldest frigate designs that are still in-service for the Imperium of Man. It is only armed with a set of light-double macro-cannon turrets that can be devastating when a volley is launched from multiple ships of this class. While it isn’t a serious threat to cruiser-class vessels, it can put a dint in an enemy escort.

Falchion Class Frigate

The Falchion is considered a new class, having only been first laid down in 261.M41. Given the Imperial Navy’s deference towards the truly ancient ships in its arsenal, the class (given its mere 550 standard years of service) is regarded as an untried and untested pretender to the throne of more established ships like the venerable Sword-class Frigate.

Light Cruisers

Dauntless Light Cruiser

The Dauntless Light Cruiser Mark One is the most basic vessel the Imperial Navy has to offer. It often works as both a scout vessel and a common line-ship. The vessel itself is armed with a heavy prow lance, twin-double macro-turrets with a 270 degree engagement arc and a set of light macro-batteries on the port and starboard sides. While it isn’t the strongest vessel the Imperium has to offer, it is agile and packs quite the punch in the hands of a capable Captain.

Endeavour Class Light Cruiser

The Endeavour-class Light Cruiser is one of the smallest classes of Light Cruiser in the Imperial Navy, though it is also one of the slowest due to its large array of heavy armament, giving it an offensive punch above what its tonnage would suggest.

Light Cruisers (Continued)

Endurance Class Light Cruiser

The Endurance class is a variant of the Endeavour Class Light Cruiser. The Endeavour’s weapon batteries have been replaced with a lance deck. The two classes are often paired together, for mutual protection, and fire-power. When this is done, the two ships bring the fire-power equivalent of a true cruiser to bear.

Defiant Class Light Cruiser

A rarer carrier variant of the Endeavour, the Defiant is rarely utilised on its own in the Imperial Navy, as its typical weapons loadout leaves it vulnerable to direct attack and totally reliant upon its relatively small number of Fury Interceptors / Starhawks to defend it.

Dictator Class Crusier

The Dictator Class Cruiser is a carrier-based vessel built upon the damaged, or destroyed, husks of a Lunar Class Cruiser.

The Dominator Class Cruiser is known to be the heaviest hitter of all the cruiser classes, with the powerful Nova Cannon on its prow which replaces the prow ram that other cruiser classes have. In addition, the Dominator is augmented with a series of two macro-cannon batteries per side, doubling the damage output from a boardside assault.

Cruisers (Continued)

Tyrant Class Cruiser

The Tyrant Class Cruiser is one of the strongest cruisers that the Imperium of Man has to offer, being able to withstand considerable damage while dealing out massive amounts of its own. Armed a heavy prow torpedo launcher and carrying a series of powerful plasma macro-cannon batteries as well as standard macro-cannon batteries, this ship is very well capable of escorting battleships into battle.

The Lunar Class Cruiser is fielded in-mass by the Imperial Navy as it consists of versatile armaments that meet the needs for a wide-range of deployments. This line of vessel is augmented by the fact that it has a heavy prow torpedo launcher as well as macro-cannon batteries and lance batteries on the port and starboard sides. The Lunar Class can fit into any role quickly.

Armageddon Class Battlecruiser

The Imperial Armageddon-class Battlecruiser was developed in an attempt to rapidly increase the number of Battlecruisers available to the Imperial Navy. Almost without exception, Armageddon-class warships are built from the recovered hulls of crippled Imperial Lunar-class Cruisers, making them one of the easiest Battlecruisers to construct.

Grand Cruisers

Vengeance Class Grand Cruiser

The Vengeance Class Grand Cruiser is a very old design, the first being launched before the Great Crusade. The design idea of the armoured prow is evident on the Vengeance, however it is not yet truly armoured, and provides no more protection then the standard hull armour. The design is now 10,000 or more years old, and is being slowly phased out. The remaining Vengeance class s are currently in reserve fleets, or used to protect ping lanes from pirates. Aikido distance learning. They are very rarely used in full-scale engagements any more, due to their being outclassed by newer designs.

Avenger Class Grand Cruiser

The Avenger-class Grand Cruiser is in many ways the archetypal Grand Cruiser. It is a massively potent and brutally simple war that mounts colossal close-ranged macrobatteries of Macrocannons in broadsides that run for kilometres along its flanks. While regarded as unusually reliable and faithful for Grand Cruisers, the Avengers are now amongst the rarest of their type of war.

Exorcist Class Grand Cruiser

The Exorcist-class Grand Cruiser is a Vengeance-class Grand Cruiser variant that was originally developed as a long-range patrol vessel, capable of self sufficiency for long periods of time away from fleet support. Usually operating with two or three squadrons of Escorts, Exorcists were often posted to the far-flung corners of the Imperium to patrol the edges of the Eastern Fringe and into the galactic Halo Stars.
