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 with similar style designs when the Imperium came out with the 30kt SEH Light Cruiser and the 75kt Planet Hvy Cruiser. The Commonwealth continued by upgrading it during refit to the Vicious class Armoured Cruiser. |
||||||||||
The Commonwealth refitted the
ships with improved armour, and 2 TL16
power stations. This resulted in 50% jump fuel usage. Space for 60 passengers has been added. It carried a reinforced regiment of 400 marines for planetary assaults. It carries Combat Landers or 50t Cutters and 1 landing bay can carry vessel tonnage up to 2000t. It also has additional cargo. It holds 500t of fuel for subcraft. |
