Acheron Heavy Cruiser[1]
The Acheron Class Heavy Cruiser is a Chaos starship.
Overview
The Acheron was designed by the Imperial Navy to test new lances and weapons batteries based on technology from an ancient ship found in Sector 51. As such, records show that only one of its kind - a then-unnamed ship designated BF/67-A[2], now known as the Chaos Eternus — was ever built. The Acheron carries a devastating long-range payload of three Lance turrets and a prow Weapons battery.[1]
