==How to use it?==

==Tips==
  +
* This ship is the best in close-range 1v1s so don't go solo into groups with it.
* The U-Siege has a HUGE energy capacity. However, the energy regen is quite slow. First upgrade regen then capacity and use the central cannons to mine quickly! Then upgrade Ship Speed, Damage, Shield Capacity and Shield Regen.
 
  +
*It is best to attack from behind and catch an enemy unaware. Try and attack equal mass or small ships as the U-Siege does better against smaller ships or ships with low shields.
*Find a lone opponent and finish him/her by the raw power of your bullets! Don't fight a team as the low energy regen is not good against them. However, the U-Siege can one-shot almost every T-4, excluding the [[U-Center]], which can be killed in two shots!
 
  +
*If your energy depletes, let it recover completely before firing again. The only exception is if you are about to die.
*Constantly look at the map. The only way you can win a match is to make sure you fire first. Enemies looking for revenge may defeat you as the U-Siege has low mass and low shields.
 
  +
* Groups of U-Sieges are very dangerous because each U-Siege can simply cover all of the others by depleting its entire energy bar while other U-Siege ships are regaining their energy.
  +
*The U-Siege is a very effective miner, with it's rapid fire secondary laser, asteroids will melt before your very eyes. Use that to your advantage.
  +
*This ship can leave most tier 6's with a pretty big chunk of their health gone, or kill them entirely. In fact, to this day people still complain about it being OP, which in a way, it is, however, it has a lot of weaknesses.
  +
*One of its weaknesses is the [[U-Bruiser|U bruiser]]. The U-Bruiser completely crushes it in terms of damage, however not DPS. The low mass of the siege makes it so you have to time your bursts very well, otherwise you'll find yourself dead. In fact, high-mass ships in general are an Achilles heel for the Siege, so tread carefully next time you play it.

== How to defend against it? ==
 
   
* The U-Siege has very low shields. However, the U-Siege makes up for it with its powerful burst damage. But you can dodge the bullets and attack the defending U-Siege with [[U-Speeder]]. The shots will stun the enemy U-Siege and prevent it from firing.
 
* The U-Siege has low shields. The [[U-Interceptor]] can easily deal loads of damage while also escaping. And the [[H-Destroyer]] has the higher damage and similiar firing pattern from the front, just fires two bullets more from the back, and also has higher mass and shields. Use these ships to defend against an enemy U-Siege. The [[U-Bruiser]] is also good as the bullets will crush the U-Siege and also has high shields.
