Description

The Lizard Class Cruiser is the workhorse of the Lizard fleet. It has a very large cargo hold and can cloak, making it ideal for dropping clans on enemy planets (remember the 30:1 Lizards ground combat ratio!). However, the downside to this ship is its fuel consumption; it really is a gas guzzler, and it can be hard to refuel deep in enemy territory. As such, always make it part of a convoy if you're invading someone, and a better choice for freighter robbing would be the Saurian, which is lighter and consumes less fuel at the cost of 1 torpdeo tube. You could use the Reptile too, but it's small fuel tank and tendency to get captured makes the Saurian ideal.

As far as all-around warships go, this ship is OK, and at tech 4 it's a strong ship to build early in the game. However, later on it won't stand up to most enemy ships, and it would be better to build T-Rexes as war ships.
