Fyron what i mean by "coming in streight and level" is that the fighter would still HAVE to approach in a streight line like any other ship it can't be dancing about while it's just approaching it's target because it would take forever to get anywhere lol and since a capital ship's guns outrange a fighters by a significant margin the fighters would get pounded before they got into a range where the "Dodging" and whirling would become effective.
Actually as stated I do have Light Raiders of the Hunt class and Artemis class SM raiders designed for capital ship steals. However since mainly I've been focusing on the main battle fleets I didn't much focus on the Light Raiders who've been stealing a whole load of colony ships for me
Battlecruisers, I don't have the economy to support both a battle line and a patrol squadron and so I have chosen the primary battle line.
Convoys actually if you think about it would probobly have a dreadnought or superdreadnought escorting it depending on how big the convoy is and where it is headed
And yeah I have 2 battleship sized craft, one is a point defense craft the other is a fleet maintenance ship that has repair bays and the like.
I am not a firm beleiver in throwing in small ships just for pizazz effect since as said by Hunpecked there is no need to follow the modern ship design requirements.
Although yet another thing that never made sense ST wise, why does starfleet build so dang many classes of starship? I mean most modern navies build 1 or 2 class of ship per size grouping not 10 or more lol.
And why build such itty bitty ships when they clearly show that a Galaxy class (battleship) can juke and swing just as quick as a Defiant class (destroyer)
