Balancing Fighters, Missiles and PDC in the late game

[Fyron]

Probably should have brought a bit of napalm with that carrier armada... nasty Xi'Chung.

Note: I have been talking about MP use mostly here. The AI is hardly salvageable to ever provide much of a challenge to most players, unless you cheat and give them a lot of special stuff only they can use...

Also, high-tech ships can have very high damage resistance from shields and armor, which fighters don't hurt very much.

Unless the fighters are launched in stacks...

With the slow rate of research progress in Proportions, all those high-tech goodies take far too long to get to save the first couple of empires a warmonger attacks...

Also, stockpiling fighters is a snap when you can support 20 BSYs or more over your HW without breaking a sweat.
