Honour-class Galleon

undefined

An ancient vessel, the was once the line ship of the Sangheili during their war against the San Shyuum. Even at the time of the war, they were somewhat out of date, but modular technology and armour allowed them to remain up to date. The surviving examples were eventually relegated to tithe fleets, or compliance missions, while others were mothballed, or hidden in secret shipyards. Desperation has caused the Swords of Sanghelios to refit these vessels to modern standards, and deploy them as second line cruisers, for use as patrol and police vessels, keeping inner colonies safe from enemy aggression and piracy. When pushed to battle, these ships carry potent weapons and armour, and while their speed leaves much to be desired, they are nimble on the spot. Their modular design allows them to be repaired and serviced quickly.
