The '''Missile Cruiser''' is a Tech 2 variant of the [[Cruiser]], with powerful close-range capabilities. This ship, being the second of two [[Missile Ships]], is a glass cannon, capable of outputting large damage, but with weak shields for a [[:Category:Supercapital|Supercapital]] ship, and a low cruise speed. Is a good option for fighting other large [[Starship|Ships]], including the [[Lancer]], as well as fighting smaller ships, given proper [[Logistics Ships|Logistics]] support. It is unwise to field this ship without any Logistics support, as it can be picked off by a few dedicated [[Assault Corvette|Assault Corvettes]], who have the shield strength to shrug off [[Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher|RHMs]] and the speed to outrun [[Thermonuclear Missile Launcher|Thermonuclear Missiles]], as well as weapons made for tackling large opponents..
