The Goliath Class Battleship was a class of Battleship used by the Imperial Army's Imperialis Armada and Legiones Astartes during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy.[2]
They were referenced as being built for the same role as Gloriana and Victory class Battleships, but were earlier and more logistically complex examples that were eventually relegated to mostly back-line duties in reserve and garrison fleets.[3]
