The '''{{PAGENAME}}Shield of Jupiter''' is a [[Gothic Class Cruiser]] in the [[Imperial Navy]], which led a small patrol force that spotted an a [[Necron]] fleet heading for an [[Imperium]] world. The patrol force was heavily outnumbered however and was forced to send out a message for reinforcements, while they shadowed the Necrons. Once an Imperial Navy task force arrived, the two groups attacked the Necrons fleet; leading to the first major encounter between the ships of [[Battlefleet Ultima]] and the Necron. When the battle started though, it was evident that the Imperial Navy forces were still outgunned by the Necron's superior firepower and they were eventually forced to flee or risk being completely destroyed. The {{PAGENAME}} Shield of Jupiter managed to escape, though it was left heavily damaged, while the Necron fleet proceeded to [[Necron Harvester Fleet|harvest]] the Imperium world.{{Fn|1}}
