Golden Armada

"The invasion fleet stands ready. We await only your command Hierarch."

- Selendis to Artanis

The Golden Armada is a protoss fleet based on Shakuras. It is the greatest fleet of protoss vessels ever constructed.

History
The Armada was created by order of Hierarch Artanis with the explicit intention of using it to retake Aiur. At some point the armada's existence was discovered by Radio Liberty.

Heart of the Swarm
A group of protoss went on an expedition to the ice planet, Kaldir. There they met and engaged a zerg brood led by Nafash. At some point, Nafash was killed and her brood became dormant. Later, Kerrigan went to Kaldir to reclaim the lost brood and engaged the Protoss Expedition. Their Expedition Leader attempted to contact the Golden Armada, but failed.

Legacy of the Void
"Today we will reclaim our homeworld!"

- Hierarch Artanis

Artanis took the Golden Armada under his command in an effort to retake Aiur. An invasion of the planet was launched, in order to deal with the zerg that remained on it. However, the invasion was thrown into disarray by the coming of Amon, who was able to corrupt the Khala. Artanis and his followers were forced to flee in the Spear of Adun.
