*Due to most of its health being [[Shields|Shield-based]], this ship struggles to tank Starbases from below, where a Starbase's turrets have the least lines of sight but also where the Starbase's heavy laser armament is focused. This makes the '''Judgement''' worse for using as a tank in sieges than almost any other Dreadnought, most of which have high Hull health or a good balance between Hull and Shield health. | *Due to most of its health being [[Shields|Shield-based]], this ship struggles to tank Starbases from below, where a Starbase's turrets have the least lines of sight but also where the Starbase's heavy laser armament is focused.

*If your other teammates happen to have a '''Judgement''', always try to use it in a group of at least two or more of the same ship. This allows you to ambush enemies with a combined alpha damage that will instantaneously cripple most normal [[:Category:Battleship|battleships]], if not destroy them; as well as having enough health to get away without being destroyed. | *If your other teammates happen to have a '''Judgement''', always try to use it in a group of at least two or more of the same ship.
