Default Tactics Question for You guys

Hi all it's your favorite little starhawk here (heh) with yet another question for all you tactical wizzes.

I've heard many people saying they still use Cruisers and Battlecruisers even once they get dreadnoughts and superdreadnoughts. Well my question for you guys is What do you use these smaller ships for?

I mean on average a superdreadnought could take out at least 4 cruisers by herself unless some remarkably unlucky crap happened to her. And battlecruisers don't stand much better a chance.

So how do you use BCs and Cruisers in your late game?

(p.s. the reason I'm asking is because as it stands I'm playing devnull and my largest ship is a heavy cruiser and I was wondering if making my light and cruiser designs obsolete was a good idea or not and when I get Dreads and bigger I was wondering of those cruisers would still be of any use.)
I never build battleships personally (unless it's as a cheaper carrier) so I never mention them in my naval equation.
