Hmm... throwing all those small fighters in to distract enemy fire sounds like building chaff ships in Stars!
The chaffers will not be so effective in the new Stars!. I believe they are adding maintenance costs to ships. Fighters in SEIV should have a maintainace cost as many have argued before. Otherwise, they may well become the dominant decoy in SEIV that cheap Frigates are in Stars!
