Default Re: Question about general strategy: missles vs. fighters vs. drones vs. direct fire, etc

Teal... With Seekers, units timing is very important.

This is very important when the player counters with the PD Ships.

Always design your fighters to move with your fleets... Not to speed out and be destroyed before your fleet shows up. This way they will be involved in the fight at the same time your seekers hit and your Main DF Ships come into play.

Practice this tatic with a good trained fleet can work wonders. And they extend the life of the carrier well beyond the Cruiser class counter ships.

Also this will allow you to keep with the carrier / repair ships carrier / minesweeper ships carrier / pd ships carrier / supply ships. Carrier / seeker ships

As All ships should fight.

Now think about combining this with ram ships....

Also.... You should make sure that you understand the difference between fighting on Warp Points vs open space vs planets.
