==Overview==
Combining manoeuvrability, firepower, and endurance, they are used for anything from long patrols, blockades, to raids deep into enemy territory. In fleet actions, they support [[Escort]]s in screening the advance of the fleet, then form the gun line once the fighting begins. Cruisers are divided into many sub-types. From the mighty Grand Cruisers that can nearly stand up to a [[Battleship]] to the speedy Light Cruisers with the quickness to drive off attacking [[Escort]]s, each one fills its role in a fleet.{{Cite ThisMarker End}}
