Built to represent the last word in electronic warfare, combat recon ships have onboard facilities designed to maximize the effectiveness of electronic countermeasure modules of all kinds. Filling a role next to their class counterpart, the heavy assault cruiser, combat recon ships are the state of the art when it comes to anti-support support. They are also devastating adversaries in smaller skirmishes, possessing strong defensive capabilities in addition to their electronic superiority.

Summary
The Lachesis is a T2 version of the Celestis. It retains the sensor damping bonus, but more importantly, it gains a large bonus to point range. The Lachesis is used in larger fleets as a long range heavy tackler, where its sensor damping bonus is ignored and its high number of mid slots allow it to field a strong shield tank.
Skills
Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Lachesis for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.
Tactics

Notes
In ancient Greek mythology, Lachesis was one of the three fates, with a particular role in measuring out individuals' lifespans. The early poet Hesiod says she is the daughter of Erebus and Nyx.
