Re: Fighter Groups
I have another question about fighters. I have experimented with using them in formations by themselves to protect warp points. Has anyone ever found this effective against humans? If so, which formations and how many fighters per group are most effective?
I have created formations of nearly 200 fighters, but PDF cannons always seem to pick them off. There must be a way to organize them to overwhelm a fleet's defenses.

This isn't true though. You can launch as many fighter as you like, in as many locations and in as many Groups as you like, provided you have sufficient lauch bays.
In other words, if you have launch bays for 25 fighters per game turn, you can launch 5, move, launch 5 more launch another 5, move and launch the Last 10. Or any combination you like.
I'm sure this is true. I'll have to check it now... |

Dogscoff if you move you will launch the other fighters not at the same location, will you? |
