Hoshi no shiro

The Hoshi no shiro, known in High Gothic as the Castle in the Stars, is the Imperial Gloriana-class Battleship that served as the flagship of Daito Ueyama, the Primarch of the World Shakers, during the Great Crusade and Five Ruins. An incredibly vast ship made specifically to serve the needs of an incredibly vast Primarch, Hoshi no shiro is a massive Gloriana Class Battleship sporting hardened and reinforced armour. On top of this, it contains twice the normal number of weapons batteries than the average ship of the same class.

Adorned in the colours of the Legion, and sporting superstructures on its dorsal line reminiscent of the classical architecture of Kyojino-rakuen, Hoshi no shiro is particularly unique in its exclusion of a reinforced prow ram in favour of a design more in keeping with the Astartes Battle Barge. In fact, due mainly in part to the size of the craft, Hoshi no shiro sports no less than four separate hangar bays on its prow, enabling it to launch twice the number of void-capable craft as most ships its size.
