Advanced Cogitator Linkage: Shrikes include kilometers of sophisticated linkage

cabling, which at one time allowed a highly advanced core cogitator to exercise extreme

control over the systems. Although the heretical cogitator is long removed, the linkage

remains. This vessel gains a +5 bonus to all Ballistic Skill Tests to fire the ship’s weaponry.

Martial Hubris: The ship has a glorious legacy of warfare and triumphant combats. It is always eager
to fight, and unwilling to back down. The ship gains +5 to all Ballistic Skill Tests to fire its weapons,
but suffers –15 on any Pilot (Space Craft) Tests made to escape combat.
Reliquary of Mars: Somehow, this vessel has been outfitted with ancient archaeo-tech systems from
mankind’s forgotten past. When constructing this vessel, players must select 1 Archeotech Component
of their choice. However, any Tech-Use Tests to repair the ship suffer a –20, due to the highly complex
nature of the machinery. Additionally, the tech priests of Mars regard the vessel as holy, or at least
having holy components. Some may petition to visit the vessel, others may want it for themselves.
