Cloaked attack
From Peace Station Encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to searchThe acting vessel comes in and disengages its cloak, making an immediate strafing attack to maximize damage before an enemy vessel can defend itself.
This maneuver allows the acting vessel to swiftly decloak and strike its target, achieving a free Multiweapon maneuver and reducing the target's range to either point blank or close. If this maneuver fails, the ship drops its cloak but is unable to bring its weapons to bear, and its shields remain down.
