Description:
The Ghalalk Armoured Cruiser was the workhorse of the 3rd Imperium  ( Ship first appeared in Supplement 9:
 Fighting Ships of the Imperium).   Later, this popular design was expanded when the Imperium
came out with a similar 30kt SEH Light Cruiser and the 75kt Planet Heavy Cruiser.
 It carried a reinforced regiment of 200 marines for planetary assaults.  It generally carries Combat Landers
 or 50t Cutters and 200t of subcraft fuel.
