I agree with Firemane entirely. Late game, I usually load dreads with 6PD, BCs with 4PD, and have at least two deadicated PD cruisers in each fleet. fighters and missiles dont touch me, even from the mighty EA. of course, I give up alot of weapon space that way. want to balance fighters? design better capital ships.
