	''Best used in coordinated support with fighters. Strike craft eliminate a cruiser's fighter escort (if it exists), knock out its anti-ship weapons, and the Custos comes in to kill the target with Warhammer strikes, supplamented with its Point Defense Turrets and the fighters. Its PDT's also serve as a handy 'safe zone' for allied pilots and a supplemental boost to a larger ship's point defenses where needed. Still, compared to the Cretheus, this ship is significantly larger and has fewer turrets, though its anti-ship capabilities are probably superior.''		''Best used in coordinated support with fighters.

			A good little gunboat. When deployed in wings, as in [[Red Mars]], the overlapping fire from the PDCs is enough to deter most Tev fighters from closing, while its Warhammer spam is more than capable of taking down a capital ship. When deployed in wings like this, it needs some fighter cover, but not much.

	''Pretty much equivalent in role to the [[GTC Cretheus]], this ship does have some light anti-capital ship capabilities with its [[Warhammer]] launchers, although to an even more laughable level than the [[UEC Sanctus]] (who sports a few additional [[Mass Driver\|Mass Drivers]] and [[Gauss Cannon\|Gauss Cannons]]), but can make the difference in term of point defense saturation. Its high speed and small size, especially compared to the huge [[Sanctus]], plus the ECM capabilities mentioned in the tech description, means it fares better against Tev beams. It also excels at warhead interception with its [[Point Defense Turret\|Point Defense Turrets]], contrary to the [[GTC Cretheus\|Cretheus]], but isn't as helpful in the capital ship escort role given how formidable UEF point defenses already are. It is not a bad ship, arguably superior to the [[GTC Cretheus\|Cretheus]], but it won't change the course of the war on its own - requisitioning them was more of a desperate action than anything.''
