For a Rogue Trader, a cruiser is a vessel filled with both promise and peril. All the problems that come with a light cruiser are multiplied ten-fold here. Even if a Rogue Trader manages to get his hands on a cruiser, he will find a universe of enemies scheming to take it from him. A cruiser is an invaluable treasure, after all. However, a Rogue Trader with the resources, cunning, and ruthlessness to get a cruiser and keep it, it is an unrivaled power beholden to no-one but himself.

A cruiser is a warship through and through. These are the ships of the line of Battlefleet Calixis, the heavy-hitters that fight major naval engagements. Cruisers carry large banks of weapons and are heavily armored. They have huge engines, but due to their size, their speed and maneuvering is typically not spectacular. This is good for a cruiser’s smaller opponents, since their only chance against these behemoths is to flee. Indeed, cruiser designers expect their craft will most often fight other cruisers, and will mount powerful weapons designed specifically to slay these ships.
