I beg to disagree. Proportions is different from normal SE. First, large mounts have to-hit penalties. This and combat penalties on large ships make small ships valuable throught the game. EA ability of armour platings may become a real factor. Second, most fighter weapons have a top damage of 4 ! Even stack of 20 will be affected (I consider moving 100+ fighter stack around system too cheesy since AI can not do it). High damage fighter weapons have hideius to-hit penalties so it is another interesting trade-off.
