The most commonly seen cruiser in use by the ICC Navy, the Heavy cruiser is not to be underestimated. Its railgun array allows the Heavy Cruiser to pour cannon fire on ships very effectively from both a distance and close range. The 5 fusion torpedo lauchers are also very effective when engaging foes at close range.

The border cruiser completely forgoes armour, instead its fitted with 8 shield generators. Its cannons are arranged in a similar manner to the Heavy cruiser, but it loses the torpedoes in exchange for 2 extra sensors. The lack of armour means its very agile for something its size, it can turn almost as well as some frigates. The agility also means it can dodge a lot of fire, giving it a surprising endurance in battles. In the hands of an experienced captain, The Border Cruiser is a force to be reckoned with.

Available to senior ICC cruiser captains, the ICC assault cruiser packs a powerful punch for its size. It's at home destroying the rears of enemy dreadnoughts, or obliterating smaller ships. Unlike the torpedo cruiser, you can shut the shields off for more energy.

The Strike Cruiser is the only playable cruiser which can carry 3 core weapons. It's is typically used as a long range sniper. It loses an armour plate in the rear, in exchange for an extra one in the nose. While its nose is devastating the other arcs are very weak, because most of its guns point forwards.

The M-240M is the ICC missile cruiser. Its 8 missiles pack a powerful sting  and its less vulnerable to missiles than the UGTO missile Cruiser if you fit pulse lasers. The Missle Cruiser should never get in a close range fight, as it will quickly be destroyed.

The "Guppy" as its sometimes known, is a combat carrier. The Escort Cruiser has a cannon array, at the expense of armour plate on the aft portion of the ship. Typically you should engage the same target you launched the fighters at.

Cruisers are standard fare throughout the Darkspace universe. They are the perfect blend of armor, weapons, and speed that allow them to excel virtually every role they are assigned. However, in terms of sheer durability or weapon armaments, they are still outclassed by dreadnoughts or stations

Role: Gunboat

  • Weapons: 4 chemical beam lasers, 3 railguns, 4 heavy railguns, and 5 fusion torpedo launchers.
  • Rank Requirement: 1st Rear Admiral
  • Badge's required: None

The most commonly seen cruiser in use by the ICC Navy, the Heavy cruiser is not to be underestimated. Its railgun array allows the Heavy Cruiser to pour cannon fire on ships very effectively from both a distance and close range. The 5 fusion torpedo lauchers are also very effective when engaging foes at close range.

M-231P Border Cruiser

Role: Electronic Warfare

  • Weapons: 4 chemical lasers, 3 gauss guns, and 4 heavy gauss guns
  • Rank Requirement: 1st Rear Admiral
  • Badge's required: Silver Navigator
  • Shielding/Armor: 8 reactive shields.
  • Recommended setup (Note: If you have anything to add to this, please add it below this, don't edit it;thanks)
    • Change all guns to railguns for energy (1.671)
    • Keep ECCM, ECM will only lower your sig to 1.5 in the middle of space.
    • Change the two full-arc beams to pulse for PD.
    • Reading from the left, change every second shield to actives. This will change the outer shields to active shields. Always remember to redirect those shields!

The border cruiser completely forgoes armour, instead its fitted with 8 shield generators. Its cannons are arranged in a similar manner to the Heavy cruiser, but it loses the torpedoes in exchange for 2 extra sensors. The lack of armour means its very agile for something its size, it can turn almost as well as some frigates. The agility also means it can dodge a lot of fire, giving it a surprising endurance in battles. In the hands of an experienced captain, The Border Cruiser is a force to be reckoned with.

  • Rank Requirement: Vice Admiral
  • Badge's required: Bronze Navigator, Bronze Engineer, Silver Combat, Bronze Transport, Bronze Bomber, and Bronze Support

The Strike Cruiser is the only playable cruiser which can carry 3 core weapons. It's is typically used as a long range sniper.

  • Weapons: 4 chemical lasers, 8 ion tracker missile launchers.
