==Overview==
The Gloriana Class Battleship was an ancient [[Terran]] design which alongside similar vessels like the [[Promethean Class Cruiser]] and [[Tiamat Class Destroyer]] were forgotten technological relics, even by the time of the [[Great Crusade]]. They far surpassed the contemporary Imperial designs in capability.{{Fn|10}}
Officially classified as a type of command [[Battle Barge]], the vessels were around 20 kilometers in length, though their size and appearance varied greatly.{{Fn|1}} These massive ships were frequently used as flagships for Imperial fleets and even [[Primarch]]s. The Gloriana Class vessels are the largest known Imperial warships after the [[Phalanx]] and [[Furious Abyss]]-class vessels.{{Fn|1}} Some of the largest known Gloriana-class vessels were the ''[[Vengeful Spirit]]'', ''[[Conqueror (Ship)|Conqueror]]'', ''[[Hrafnkel]]'', and ''[[Iron Blood]]''.{{Fn|4}}
