Promethean Class Cruiser
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Promethean Class Cruisers were powerful ancient Terran warships, that were clad in dense layers of Void-shields and dated back to the age before Old Night.[1]
They, along with the Gloriana Class Battleships and Tiamat Class Destroyers, were relics of forgotten technologies, that far surpassed more modern warship designs in potency. The Emperor had somehow gained possession of a number of these warships and as the Great Crusade began, he gave a small number to most of the Space Marine Legions. The First Legion, however, was given a Fleet of these warships, due the honor they had earned themselves in the Unification Wars.[1]
