One of my favorite Imperium Battlecruisers. The officers that decided to minimize their production must have been servants of Chaos trying to hinder the Navy. (It might be my favorite but its been so many years since I played the tabletop game I can't be certain)
The Mars is as close to the "perfect" all round ever made by Imperium It has an Admiral / Commodore deck built in for command and control For Convoy / Troop transport ( Titans , the God engines ) duty it is awesome against pirates / screening units True , Those "Lord Nelson" or " Yamamoto" types will hate it . But the Imperium does not survive on "Battle of Midway" type of battles , a "Jutland" style is closer to reality . "Trafalgar" or "Tsushima" were a rare occurrences . As Admiral Nimitz & General Eisenhower proved , it's logistics and tactics win wars . Not the equipment or even leaders, those just makes it easier or harder to do . Without logistics and tactics you end up with WW1 stalemate
Only used it once, as support vessel for an Oberon. A perfect match for the occasion.

I liked it in game. I loved fighters.

And thats why I am eager to start a campaign.
