'''''Spectre''-class Warp Runner (25 points)'''

One of the swiftest vessels ever built by the Imperium, the Spectre served the Expeditionary Fleets in a variety of support roles.  Most frequently, they would be sent ahead of the main body to gather up-to-date tactical intelligence before a main strike was launched.

'''''Thunderbolt''-class Heavy Frigate (60 points)'''

The Thunderbolt was an uncommon sight in the fleets of the Imperium, but its peculiar qualities made it much sought-after.  It was quick and agile, but armed with a battery of lances the envy of many cruiser captains.  If the heavy frigate was capable, it was not without its disadvantages.  Due to the immense energy requirements of its armament, power couplings tended to burn out quickly and it was impossible to manoeuvre and keep the lances firing.

'''''Vigil''-class Siege Frigate (40 points)'''

Although slow for an escort, the Vigil's powerful bombardment cannons often played a critical role in breaking down tough planetary defences.
