Ark Mechanicus

Arks Mechanicus are the vast ships that the Adeptus Mechanicus use to scour the stars for their holy grail, a working Standard Template Construct as part of their Quest for Knowledge.

As is to be expected, each Ark Mechanicus is filled with some of the best technology in the entire Imperium. Though these rare, nigh-mythical ships are seldom brought to battle, those times that they are sees them bringing to bear nearly impenetrable defenses and weaponry whose range and firepower puts even that of Imperial battleships to shame.

Known Arks Mechanicus

 * Omnissiah's Victory: The Omnissiah's Victory is an Ark Mechanicus with a long and storied history. It is rumored (albeit without proof) to predate the Great Crusade, and is definitely known for participating in the Noloptis Crusade during M33.  The Omnissiah's Victory is armed with vast arrays of weapons batteries, lances, and a Nova Cannon, and is thought to be the basis for the Retribution-class Battleship.
