General Light Cruiser Tactics

Lesson 1: Which Ship?

Light cruisers in general are all very similar. The concept when handling such vessels is the same for each one. When you observe light cruisers closely, you will not only find that they have higher agility than heavy cruisers, but also a completely different fighting style. Most light cruiser captains will attempt to exploit their smaller shape and avoid getting hit at all, while heavy cruiser captains will most likely exploit the advantage of their greater power-core and the number of guns. So when picking light cruisers, focus on their shape and power supply, we will be mostly referring to those requirements.
