Impaler Assault Module
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Impaler Assault Module is essentially an extremely large Assault Boat used by Dark Eldar pirates. Too large to operate out of launch bays, they are mounted on the prow of a larger ship. Their size also limits their range somewhat.[1]
However, the Impaler's size more than makes up for these drawbacks by allowing it to carry many more troops than a normal assault boat - enough to potentially overwhelm an enemy ship, in fact. The potential havoc that an Impaler's soldiers can wreak is far beyond even the best that a mere assault boat's crew could hope for.[1]
