+ +## Summary + +
+Following requests for a more headshot-resistant ship (headshotting being the act of trying to kill the enemy FC(s) first), the Monitor is the first Flag Cruiser to come to New Eden. It has no offensive abilities whatsoever aside from being able to fit a minimal-strength target painter. In exchange, it is exceptionally durable, having 183k base EHP combined with the signature radius of a Frigate. Unlike other CONCORD ships, Monitors are not special edition ships, and BPCs can be acquired through the CONCORD LP store. +
+ +## Skills + +
+The costs of the CONCORD ships mean that any pilot will want high skills before they fly it. +
+ +## Tactics + +
+The Monitor is designed to create an extremely durable platform from which FCs can tag targets, call primaries, and direct fleet movements. Its ridiculous ehp is designed to make it an extremely unfavorable target to engage first, as it will take far too long to kill. The purpose of the essentially zero-strength target painter with ridiculous range is so that the FC can get on kill mails. +
+ +## Notes + +
+Since the Monitor has no Turret Hardpoints or Launcher Hardpoints and very limited Power Grid and CPU it cannot fit modules capable of attacking or damaging other ships. + +The Monitor is only capable of fitting Target Painters, Automated Targeting Systems, Propulsion modules, Scan Probe Launchers, and festival launchers. This leaves the Monitor in a special role. + +While it is very evasive, it is not impossible to catch and warp interdict or scramble it, plus (as of 2019 information) it carries the price of an expensive battleship. Thus, for smaller fights the FC may wish to consider an alternative platform from which to command. +## Patch History \ No newline at end of file
