The Endeavor class Light cruiser lacks the speed of the [[Dauntless Class Light Cruiser|Dauntless]], and is therefore unsuitable to the anti-piracy role. It is therefore used as a convoy flagship, or heavy escort for a large captial ship. To counter the vunerability of being as slow as a larger capital ship, the Endeavor has a much better turret array than a Dauntless Class, however, the power to upgrade the shields to the same level could not be found.Two varients of the Endeavor class exist, the [[Endurance Class Light Cruiser|Endurance Class]] and the [[Defiant Class Light Cruiser|Defiant Class]]
The large [[weapons battery]]s of the Endeavor class mean it can hold its own in a fleet engagement, usually equalling the firepower of a full size cruiser. These batterys have only a short range, equalling that of the shortest cruiser battery ranges, this is sufficent however for the Endeavor's role as a heavy escort. It also has a small [[torpedo]] compliment, but these are more of a distraction, rather than a serious threat to a capital ship, escorts however do well to avoid them.
