Their high
cost aggravates the problem of their loss rate to both enemy fire and 'fratricide'. I wonder if they shouldn't be reduced considerably in price.
I think their biggest
advantage though is that you can attack at long range withour risking your main ship. If only Starfury could be tweaked to make this a useful/essential feature. Maybe if starbases really had huge weapons that could take out capital ships with a single hit you could be forced to use massed fighters.
