== Summary ==

The '''Rook''' is the Caldari [[Recon Ships#Combat Recon Ships|combat recon]]. While other factions' recons support two types of [[~~Electronic warfare|~~EWAR]] and often suffer from split weapons systems, the Rook is totally dedicated to ECM and missiles. It has a very respectable 7 mid slots, so is almost always shield tanked, but it must share these between ECM and tank. The Rook's low slots can either be used for Ballistic Control Systems to boost damage or Signal Distortion Amps to improve ECM.

The Rook suffers rather from being a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. When focused for ECM its damage is poor and it becomes an expensive [[Blackbird]] with much more tank but also a much shorter range. When fit for missile damage it loses a lot of ECM effectiveness and still falls far short of a HAC for dps.
