Your quintessential Necron ordnance-boat. The Shroud-class Light Cruiser is equipped with a heavy complement of [[Lightning Arc]] Turrets. They were first recorded in 992.M41 during a battle with Battlefleet Pacificus. In the following six years three more incidents ended with the Shroud-class Light Cruisers retreating from battle. It is believed that the ship class or crew were under evaluation.

In 998.M41, five Shroud-class Light Cruisers assaulted the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] facility on [[Mars]]. How the proverbial fuck that these guys managed to evade the defences of [[Solar System|Sol]], we have no idea. Several managed to land on the soil of Mars itself and although they were all destroyed in the end, their hulks were never found. Since the Mars incident, six additional encounters have seen the Shroud acting as the forward eyes and ears of the Necron fleet. They excel in this role because no ship that is capable of catching them has the firepower to engage it. The fact that five of these light ships easily infiltrated the Mechanicus's homeworld, reinforces the danger the Necrons pose to the Imperium.

The Shroud takes the highest raw dps spot and ties with crit output with the Khopesh, but does so without the significant increase to hit points the Khopesh gets. On the plus side, by having all the weapons as turrets, the Shroud benefits from having a full 270-degree firing arc across all its weaponry.

Another additional benefit is the Sensors upgrade unique to the Shroud, which increases its identification range and allows it to work as a spotter for the other 2 light cruisers longer-range Gauss Whips, along with any other larger ships in your fleet with longer-ranged weaponry.
