Armageddon Class Battlecruiser
The Armageddon Class Battle Cruiser was designed to rapidly increase the number of battle cruisers available to the Imperial Navy during the Third War for Armageddon. Built exclusively from recovered shells of Lunar Class Cruisers, the Armageddon class upgraded the Lunar to an operational battle cruiser.1
The ship has a similar weapons layout to the Lunar, with medium sized weapons batteries and two lance positions on each flank of the ship, as well as torpedoes. However, due to the increased power availability the Armageddon class possesses, these weapons now have a far greater range than their counterparts on a Lunar Class, and there is still enough power to feed two further lance positions, each with battleship range, on the dorsal section of the ship. A drawback to these increased abilities was apparent when the first crew manifest was drawn up, an extra three and a half thousand crewmen were needed to enable the ship to operate at peak efficiency.1
