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.
== Overview ==
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.{{Fn|1}}
