Battlecruisers: Difference between revisions

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. Their durability and simplicity lends them to being 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 (outside of mining). Each command ship's strength bonus applies to two, racially determined, burst types.

Attack command ships are specialized towards high damage and strong command bursts. They lose the innate 50% command burst range bonus from T1 Battlecruisers, but in exchange feature a 4%/level strength bonus. They also have two ship bonuses that improve DPS.

Fleet command ships are specialized towards survivability and powerful long range bursts. They feature a 100% command burst range bonus, and 3%/level strength bonus. They all have a resistance bonus that improves survivability, and the Damnnation and Vulture further have a bonus that increases their armor and shield HP, respectively.
