Interdictor Cruiser (TradeWars 2002)

The Interdictor Cruiser is the only ship in the fictional TradeWars 2002 universe to have an interdictor generator. This device prevents any ship from leaving the sector once it is in battle with the Cruiser. Since enemy ships tends to flee as their defenses are worn down, this capability is useful for capturing ships, especially the Ferrengi Scorpion. The Cruisers combat odds are above average, and it carries a massive number of fighters and shields; this makes it useful for invasions. The Cruiser's main weaknesses are its slowness and the fact that it can't land on planets.
