A Space Hulk is a massive conglomeration of lost ships and wrecks fused together. They drift through space and in and out of the warp and during the millennia the lost ships join together into one enormous body. Frequently, they are so huge that they have their own atmosphere and gravity. Since the hulks often exit and re-enter the warp seemingly at random, searching or traveling in them is dangerous in the extreme。

太空廢船是一種迷失在亞空間的飛船和殘骸融合在一起之后形成的巨大混合團(tuán)塊。他們在太空中漂流，會進(jìn)出亞空間，而且在數(shù)千年的時間中，會有迷失的飛船們被吸收進(jìn)這團(tuán)巨大的混合物。通常，由于體積過于龐大，廢船會形成自己的重力和大氣層（機(jī)仆：那怕不是比谷神星還要大了…）。由于廢船似乎經(jīng)常無規(guī)律進(jìn)出亞空間，尋找和追蹤進(jìn)入它們極其危險。

Overview綜述

?Ork Space Hulk歐克古巨圾

The Imperial Navy, and all Imperial forces and authorities as a whole, have standard orders to survey such objects and to report their location. The hulks consist of ships and items of technology millennia old and the recoverable technology can be of immense value to the Imperium, and especially to the Adeptus Mechanicus, thus elite Imperial forces are sent aboard to clear out infestations. Depending on the strategic situation (availability of troops, proximity to vital Imperial star systems, safety margins, etc), Space Marines are sent to purge the hulk of any alien infestations.

對于古巨圾，帝國海軍，帝國的其他部隊(duì)與機(jī)構(gòu)都負(fù)有一項(xiàng)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的命令：調(diào)查它們并匯報定位。廢船中包含了艦船和有數(shù)千年歷史的科技，從中復(fù)原的技術(shù)對帝國，尤其是機(jī)械修會價值巨大。因此帝國精銳部隊(duì)會被送到廢船上去清理出沒的威脅。出于戰(zhàn)略考量（調(diào)動部隊(duì)的可能性，過于接近帝國的重要星系，安全邊緣，等等），（帝國）會派出星際戰(zhàn)士去凈化有任何異形出沒的廢船。

Space hulks are dangerous, as they are commonly used as a means of transport by certain unsophisticated factions. Orks, Genestealers, and Chaos renegades use them occasionally to invade other worlds. As the warp jump of Space Hulks is essentially made in a random direction this gives them the advantage of surprise.太空廢船是危險的，有些特定的勢力通常會把它們作為運(yùn)輸手段。獸人，基因竊取者，混沌叛軍偶爾會乘坐它們?nèi)肭制渌澜纭Ｒ驗(yàn)樘諒U船基本上會向隨機(jī)方向進(jìn)行亞空間跳躍，這給了他們進(jìn)行突襲的優(yōu)勢。

Therefore the mission of boarding space hulks is extremely dangerous and normally entrusted to Terminators, the Chapters' most experienced elite who are heavily armed and armoured. In some cases this is an impossible task, due to too-powerful enemy resistance, too few available Imperial troops, too close to vital systems, etc. In such cases, the bombardment and total destruction of the hulk is the only viable alternative.

因此登上太空廢船是極其危險的任務(wù)，這類任務(wù)通常會被委托給終結(jié)者——裝備精良的戰(zhàn)團(tuán)最有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的精英們。有些時候這是一項(xiàng)不可能的任務(wù)，原因可能是：敵人過于強(qiáng)大的抵抗，幾乎沒有可用的帝國軍隊(duì)，過于靠近重要星系，等等。這些情況下，轟炸或徹底毀滅廢船將是唯一可行的選擇。

Space Hulks are huge and durable, as even Nova Cannon blasts are not enough to cause significant damage.

太空廢船極其巨大且極其堅(jiān)韌，即使是新星炮也不足以造成明顯傷害。
