Being mostly a freighter, a Fleet Supply Cruiser has a weak crew compared to the value of the ship and it's cargo. It's a common tactic not to eliminate a base but instead to redirect the regular deliveries into one's own stores. However, Alien Supply missions usually happen in the dead of night. | Being mostly a freighter, a Fleet Supply Cruiser has a weak crew compared to the value of the ship and it's cargo.

General Information
The supply vessel is used during the construction of Alien colonies or for supplying existing colonies. It carries Alien nutrients, DNA, foetuses and other biological components.
Additional Information
Fleet Supply Cruisers serve very few purposes: they may show up in auxiliary roles during the final stage of Alien Base and Alien Infiltration missions, but their main role is, unsurprisingly, to supply existing alien bases.
