=== Command Ships ===

Command ships are battlecruisers with exceptional tank, stronger DPS, and a significant bonus to the effectiveness of [[Command Bursts|Command Burst]] modules. They can ~~fit~~ 2 Command Burst modules simultaneously, ~~more than~~ any ~~sub-capital ship~~. Each ~~race~~'s bonus applies to two ~~of the~~ burst types.

Command ships are battlecruisers with exceptional tank, stronger DPS, and a significant bonus to the effectiveness of [[Command Bursts|Command Burst]] modules. They are very SP-intensive ships, requiring Fleet Support skills, but are functionally very simple ships, mostly acting as direct upgrades to their tech I variants. Originally intended to be flown by the fleet commanders of small fleets. They can operate 2 Command Burst modules simultaneously, can be rigged to operate up to 4 bursts, and provide the most powerful command bursts of any ships. Each command ship's strength bonus applies to two, racially determined, burst types.
