Pike

How to use it

At Dart’s price it attacks harder and has less hull, with class advantage against Skirmishers.

Pike is an entry Lance that hunts Skirmishers such as Dart and Thorn. At Dart’s price it buys more attack and less hull, and flies slower. Bulwark hulls and Bastions counter it, so an all-Pike fleet has a clear and effective answer.
