The capital ship missile is a good idea IMHO. The ship closes to CSM range, fires, then runs away. THEN, as fighters close, it comes back. The fighters won't be in range, and the point defense cannons fire as they close further.
The WMG may do the same, or not, but I think null space is a bad idea because it's short range will cause the ship to close in on enemy ships too much, then try to run away during the reload. But it's too far in the thick of things.
Now the anti proton beam, which is available every combat turn, will just cause the ship to close on enemy vessels. That's no good. It will soon be surrounded by massed fighters and the PDC will be overwhemed.
