An illustration of the Emperor Battleship
The Emperor Class Battleship is a command ship and a carrier combined together. It is one of the oldest designs still in use, due to the discovery of Divine Right fused into a Space Hulk for some ten thousand years.1

The main armament of the Emperor class is made up of its 8 squadrons of attack craft. These are able to roam far from the ship, to engage enemy capital ships that would be out of range, or otherwise non-viable targets for the ships weapons batteries1.
