===Carrier=== ====Eclipse==== [[File:14414770_f1024.jpg|300px|right|thumb|One of the best carriers in the game.]] The Eclipse-class Cruiser is a class of Eldar Cruiser that is one of the most effective Attack Craft carriers in the entire Gothic Sector thanks in large part to the quickness and agility that is common to all Eldar craft. Unlike other races' carriers which must stay well away from the front lines - thereby increasing travel time before their Attack Craft reach their target - the Eclipse can dart in, launch a wave of [[Darkstar Fighter]]s and [[Eagle Bomber]]s, and then race to safety before the enemy can retaliate. When this speed is combined with the incredible effectiveness of Eldar Attack Craft and the power of the Eclipse's forward [[Pulsar Lance]], it is small wonder that the Eclipse was the bane of Imperial commanders throughout the Gothic Sector. It is equipped with one heavy launch bay carrying [[Darkstar Fighter]]s and [[Eagle Bomber]]s , six [[Heavy Starcannon|Starcannon Artillery]] and three [[Pulsar Lance]] Beams. *'''Length:''' 4.7km; approx *'''Mass:''' 18 megatonnes; approx *'''Crew:''' 13,000 crew, including 5,000 pilots and support staff; approx *'''Acceleration:''' 8 gravities maximum sustainable acceleration ====Kurnous==== [[File:14414760_f1024.jpg|300px|right|thumb|Fly like a bird, hit like a train.]] A more 'brawler'-esque Carrier compared to the Eclipse. It is armed with eight [[Heavy Starcannon]] Artilleries and a heavy launch bay. The Kurnous, is basically the same ship as the Shadow with its torpedoes swapped for launch bays at the cost of an extra 22 points, down from the old 60 point difference. While previously a much more expensive ship, the reduction in points cost brings the Kurnous more in line with the other ships in terms of value/usefulness. Like the Shadow, Runic Targeting gives this ship the ability to use broadside attack profiles in auto engage mode to keep the assisting AI circling your cruiser around the target, keeping the ship moving and the holofields up, while you micro your other vessels that need to make strafing run attacks. The Kurnous is a bit more independent than the Shadow since you don't need to worry about setting up torpedo runs either. It is armed with 1 Heavy Launch Bay carrying [[Darkstar Fighter]]s and [[Eagle Bomber]]s and 8 [[Heavy Starcannon|Starcannon Artillery.]] *'''Length:''' 4.7km; approx *'''Mass:''' 18 megatonnes; approx *'''Crew:''' 11,500 crew, including 5,800 pilots and support staff; approx *'''Acceleration:''' 8 gravities maximum sustainable acceleration
