Special:
- Rogue Trader armed cargo vessels have more in common with true warships than typical freighters, giving up a significant portion of their cargo capacity to mount warship-grade weapons and engineering plants. They move +4D6 when under All Ahead Full special orders as warships do.
- They are worth one assault point in planetary assault scenarios when within 30 cm of the planet edge and count as a half-transport (rounding DOWN) in scenarios that require transports. This means that if it is the only one remaining in a convoy scenario, it counts as zero.
- When included in a Rogue Trader escort squadron and not being used as a transport in scenarios that require them, it offers +1 Ld to Reload Ordnance by ensuring escorts have a ready supply of torpedoes before the battle. This effect is not cumulative if there is more than one Rogue Trader cargo vessel in the escort squadron.
Options:
- Fast Clipper: Instead of taking a refit normally, for no extra cost this vessel type can be converted to a fast clipper by entirely removing its primary battery armament for the Advanced Drive Technology refit on p. 175
