A diabolical ship that could only be dreamed up by the Prince of Chaos himself, the Intruder light cruiser has proven to be the bane of may Imperial commanders. Able to take over the command crew of a ship for a few moments, Intruder cruisers turn friends into foes. Commanders are best warned to keep their distance from these crafts and attack them from afar.

Nominate 1 enemy ship within range, fire arc, and with its shields down. The ship must pass a leadership check. Failure allows the Chaos player to take control of that ship for 1 turn. All weapons, including ordinance, is at ½ strength. At the end of the turn he ship reverts back to the control of its owner. Attack craft launched from that ship can only attack friendly ships if they reach them in that 1st turn. After that they are under the control of the ships owner, even if the ship is lured once more on a later turn. This may be used on only 1 ship at a time. If the Intruder suffers a bridge smashed result on the critical hits table it is no longer able to make this attack. |

Believed by Imperial Scholars to be Magnus the Red’s original flag ship from before the Horus Heresy the Magnus has long plagued Imperial shipping near the Eye of Terror. The heavy armament of the Magnus is devastating by itself, however it is the terrible Eye of Magnus mounted in the prow that strikes fear into Imperial captains. Capable of cutting most ships in half with a single shot, it is a weapon of horrifying magnitude, yet desperately sought by the Tech Priests of Mars.

A design of unknown origin the Pestilence class cruisers are seen only in the warfleets dedicated to the Chaos God Nurgle. While the standard armament is not of great concern, it is the "plague" torpedoes carried onboard that cause concern to Imperial commanders. These torpedoes carry a viscious disease onboard that is easily spread threw the air systems on ship. The infectious agents are quickly absorbed threw the skin of the victim, rotting their bodies from the inside out. Within 30 minutes of contracting the disease, all that if left is pile of foul smelling greenish brown ooze and charred bones.

If more then 1 torpedo causes an outbreak, treat a single hit, multiple hits do not further or increase the effects of the plague. Roll a d6 at the end of every end phase, on another 6 a point of damage is cause to the ship. If the infected ship can go 3 turns without rolling a 6, the plague has been contained and has no further effect, barring being hit by another plague torpedo. |
