	Over the next 300 years she sailed the void as part of an Imperial Navy scouting mission. Along with a dozen other light cruisers, she wandered the Expanse surveying worlds, fighting pirates and, when her captain and crew could manage, bringing the holy light of the God-Emperor to the godless heathens that lived therein. After centuries of duty, the scouting mission had still only charted a fraction of the regions of the Koronus Expanse. Realizing that they had neither the time nor resources to dedicate to a truly thorough charting of the Expanse, the Navy recalled the scouting mission to the Calixis sector and replaced them with cheaper and more expendable, Rogue Traders and Free Captains. Time and the ravages of interstellar exploration in a hostile sector had not treated ''Scrutiny'' well, and upon her return she was decommissioned, her crew reassigned, and she was sent back to the Drysan yards for a full refit.

	For decades she sat laid-up in drydock at Drysan. Designated for re-purposing, her powerful augur arrays and their component cogitator banks were removed as she was slowly and painstakingly reconfigured as a troop carrier to ferry forces of Imperial Guardsmen from the Calixis Sector to Port Wander and the Koronus Expanse. Her interior compartments were converted to special barracks and munitoria to carry the Guardsmen and all of their necessary equipment. She was fitted with drop-pod bays along either side of her keel for the fast deployment of troops to battlefields, and heavier armour and weapons were installed to protect her in her new, more martial role. Nearly 100 years to the day from her decommissioning, she put in at Port Wander with fresh paint, a belly full of Imperial Guardsmen, and a new name, ''~~Aegis~~''.

	''~~Aegis~~'' served in her troop carrier/combatant role remarkably well for centuries. Even after her reconfiguration and recommissioning, she continued to collect commendations and battle medals under the leadership of her numerous captains. Eventually however, the cost of keeping her and the remainder of her sister ships operational became too much for even the Administratum to countenance, and Aegis, along with all remaining ''Resolution'' -class ships were decommissioned a final time and sold out of the service. ''~~Aegis~~'' was bought at auction by Talfore Machariel, and has served as a heavy support and planetary assault ship for House Machariel for decades. After a lengthy refit at Machariel HQ, she is now on station guarding a recently discovered ancient space station for Marneus Machariel.

			== STV ''Redoubtable'' ==
			Laid down at Drysan Construction Yards roughly 1,100 years ago as ''Scrutiny'', ''Redoubtable'' was originally a ''Resolution'' -class long-range reconnaissance ship. After a lengthy construction while the Imperial Shipwrights scoured the sector for powerful augur arrays and cogitator banks, she did her shakedown with Battlefleet Calixis scouting out the far corners of the sector. Once the Navy was content with her readiness, she was deployed to Port Wander as part of the forces investigating the ship disappearances along the edge of the Drusus Marches. She served with distinction here, her captain, officers, and crew amassing numerous Imperial Navy commendations. Thanks to the distinction of her crew and the accolades afforded them, ''Scrutiny'' was one of the first Imperial ships through the Koronus Passage when it was finally re-opened at the end of the 40th millennium.

			Over the next 300 years she sailed the void as part of an Imperial Navy scouting mission. Along with a dozen other light cruisers, she wandered the Expanse surveying worlds, fighting pirates and, when her captain and crew could manage, bringing the holy light of the God-Emperor to the godless heathens that lived therein. After centuries of duty, the scouting mission had still only charted a fraction of the regions of the Koronus Expanse. Realizing that they had neither the time nor resources to dedicate to a truly thorough charting of the Expanse, the Navy recalled the scouting mission to the Calixis sector and replaced them with cheaper and more expendable, Rogue Traders and Free Captains. Time and the ravages of interstellar exploration in a hostile sector had not treated ''Scrutiny'' well, and upon her return she was decommissioned, her crew reassigned, and she was sent back to the Drysan yards for a full refit.
