May increase the prow armour to 6+ for no additional cost. However, if this option is taken, the turning radius of these vessels is reduced to 45 degrees.
If the prow armour is increased, the ship may also take a power ram for +5 points, if it is part of an Imperial Navy, Adeptus Mechanicus, Inquisition, or Rogue Trader fleet list.
