Star cruiser

The starcruiser marks the start of the mid class. It combines 250 attack with 100 shield and can take almost three times as much damage as a warship. In return, it is fairly slow.

Strengths and weaknesses

• + Lots of firepower per ship and a sturdy shield.
• + Bonus damage against the Small shield dome and the Large shield dome.
• – Much slower than the Phoenix, which uses the same engine.
• – The Ion cannon deals bonus damage to it.

Starcruisers are a good backbone for attacks on medium-sized defenses – especially when shield domes are involved: as long as a dome is standing, you cannot win the battle and take no loot. Later on, the Phoenix and the battleship complement or replace them.
