The [[Augoror]] fit used to generate the chart above has mostly active modules that consume capacitor, including active armor resist modules. Nevertheless, when cap-chained, the Augoror has more than enough capacitor to run all active modules simultaneously, and can even periodically break the chain in order to transfer capacitor to damage-dealing fleetmates pressured by capacitor warfare. Even low-skill pilots receive this benefit, because the role bonuses to remote capacitor transfer do not depend on skill level. The [[Osprey]] has the same advantages as the [[Augoror]]; it can fit more active resist modules and still retain a considerable capacitor advantage over the [[Scythe]].

But in order for cap-chain logistics cruisers to be cap-stable, they '''must''' be partnered, and this represents a vulnerability for these ships. Enemy fleets can break the cap chain, either by isolating chain members using [[EWAR Guide|electronic warfare]], or by splitting them up using command destroyers and micro jump field generators. Cap-chain logistics ships are often specially fit to counter some of these strategies. For example, the [[Augoror]] above has sensor boosters to counter EWAR, but one of these can be replaced with a warp scrambler to counter micro jump fields. In any case, cap-chain logistics pilots are dependent on their fleetmates, and ~~this makes~~ them challenging to fly.

Unistas interested in flying cap-chain logistics ships are advised to attend [[Logistics 102]] before flying an [[Osprey]] or [[Augoror]] in an E-UNI fleet. This class covers how to fly these cruisers in fleets, and how to respond to changes in circumstances.
