As it is now, fighters can hurt ships, and Emissive armor is still useful in many situations.
But it is easy to mod the effectiveness of EA 1, to say just 5 points, and it would beautifully simulate the ineffectiveness of the smaller weapon fire of fighters against full-size system travelling warships. Or, what I am trying to do, set a moderate EA level for Capital Ships to make them truly fearsome and difficult to deal with without Capital Ships of your own.

This works great for everything, except that a hefty stack of fighters can chew into a Capital Ship more effectively than a slew of destroyers.
