Fighters move much faster than ships so it might be a good situation to deploy them.
Could use drones too. They get a speed bonus.

Agreed. And if there are enemy combat vessels there, they should be lying in wait. But, practically speaking, this has been suggested (and debated) for a LONG time (at least 6 years), and it's pretty clear that Aaron isn't going to put this in. It's not like he didn't know about the issue or the suggestion. Rightly or wrongly, he decided to implement an endless attack map. I think that his solution would work if ship movement during combat used supplies. Does it? I hadn't noticed. If it doesn't, can it be modded in? If it can, then retreating won't be such a big deal.
