Interceptors: Difference between revisions

Line 174:

<nowiki>*</nowiki> Providing mini-warp points ("tactical miniwarps"): An inty may be sent 150km+ from the rest of the fleet so that other ships can warp out to it if necessary -- to reduce incoming damage or break target locks without having to bounce all the way to a planet or station.

===Combat Interceptors===

A combat interceptor's job is to establish dominance of the frigates on the battlefield, including the enemy's tackle/interceptors, by counter-tackling and killing them. Combat interceptors are also better at tackling MWD-fit cruisers and battlecruisers than fleet interceptors - they have a scram to shut off the MWD so the fleet can catch up; and a bit more tank so that they can survive while the fleet finishes it off. Combat interceptors fly like assault frigates in many ways. They will often have their own important targets independent of the fleet's primary.
