The trick is you gotta "choke" the enemies targeting with fodder. They always try to hit the seekers before your ships. I at the early tech level I use the Meson BLaster because of it's range, and load my ships with capital ship missiles or plasma torpedoes, and have other ships with nothing but my longest range weapons, and fire a wave of seekers, hide behind them, and have them snipe off bases. In the early tech the ripper beams are the best point defense.
