Eclipse

An Eclipse class vessel

The Eclipse is an Eldar Corsair cruiser which can move rapidly and deploy its fighters in close proximity to the enemy while avoiding incoming fire easily, unlike many other carriers. It carries Darkstar Fighters and Eagle Bombers and is the bane of many convoy captains. The Stardeath destroyed over 28 convoy and military vessels before being destroyed afters it holofields were damaged through a lucky torpedo hit in the Graildark Nebula. The Silent Warrior operated around Port Maw and became notorious after Walpurgis Attack in which the Vigilant was boarded and captured. The Eldar forced the captain to send the all-clear message to a group of undefended Imperial Guard transports which the Eldar then fell upon and destroyed with Eagle Bombers as they left the atmosphere.¹

Other known Eclipse class ships include Asuryan's Chosen and Eliarenath's Gift.
