yeah, ripping off your scattering and stealth armor, and your ECM is a good idea. no reason to have it, if he uses the talisman on all his ships.

if you're using seekers, you need to use a large quantity, and maybe support them with fighters. if you're using seekers, you can also ditch your combat sensors and training.

Also, if the enemy is using the Talisman, and you are using Direct-Fire weapons (non-seekers) you might as well use point-blank range. it will increase your chance to hit, and he will be nailing you at long range, anyway.
