@Zyx Lol well speaking as someone that's already trodden the line straight over into Science-Fantasy, I figure their limitations are more set by the plot and the tone and momentum of the story than anything else, so we'll see how the opening plays out. Warhammer is a very pulpy setting and I think would jive more or less tonally compared to the TV drama of Stargate for instance. So Doctor Who is probably a good fit here as well.

@Zyx What cursory research I've done on the Replicators so far makes me believe we'll have to avoid any kind of technology that totally outclasses them, to avoid trivializing the threat.
If I were to put in a second app it would probably be for the spiritual antithesis of a Warhammer ship... Good ole NCC-1701-D.

A 40k ship is what you would get if the gravity drive worked, so I don't know if that's better. Yes it still opens a portal to Hell but that's what the Gellar Field is for.
Also I wanted to float the idea of multiple ships/characters per player if we're still low and want to pad our numbers.
I guess I'll be curious to see what Replicators do with Imperial technology. It's a bit chaotic, due to them barely understanding how it works, themselves. They don't use computers, and instead have a horrible biotech situation going on. On top of that, their technology is basically haunted by fragmented AI/literal ghosts. You literally need a priest to get it to work.
Maybe it will make the Replicators religious.

Cool, I hope we can get another person or two on board, that would be a nice number.
This is going to be quite a muster; one ginormous ship and three more that look like little toys next to it.

Welp, here goes... Likewise for me there are not a lot of hard-and-fast stats out there about this particular ship so I'll do my best.
I mean the thing you need to remember is these characters have been chosen as a benevolent being thinks they'd do the job well.
Now can characters have alternative agendas? Yes.
Yeah I am not planning to run a kill-all-xenos-exterminatus-everything sort of Warhammer character. Horus (or Sanguinius) plucked from the apex of the Great Crusade would probably be among the most reasonable and open-minded characters from that era-- when the Imperium was at the height of its power and influence-- who could still bring down a holy reckoning on some evil robots.
That said I'm curious how the "rules" of different universes will interact.
This is a fun concept. I have a few ideas.
Horus Lupercal, commanding the Vengeful Spirit, or if a more benevolent character is desired I would sub in Sanguinius, commanding the Red Tear.
