Re: AI Minesweeping
Personally, I don't think fighters are a problem in SE4. I think their are a lot of other things that MM needs to spend their time on. If you mess with fighters to much you risk damaging one of the things that makes the game great, realism.
Let's think about this for a minute. People are saying that fighters are too powerfull...compared to what??? Capital ships? Well Last time I checked, a couple squadrons of F-18's would make pretty short work of even an Aegis Cruiser if it doesn't have any support. That's why U.S fleets are "carrier" taskforces.
The best way to fight fighters, is WITH fighters.
As far as fighters not needing support, well that can be a problem if it's abused. But the flexablity that it gives you partly balances it out. The ability to attack with my fighters without moving my carriers into range is very nice. I don't know how you would limit that without totally removing that ability.
