Re: Fighters and Missiles
About the only fighter strategy usefull long term is one that I have heard called the "Big Wing" strategy, although I do not remember who I heard call it that.
Basically you need the largest fighters you can build with the best shields and strongest weapons. Build them and launch them in massive Groups. 100 is optmimal if you can do pull it off. Since each group acts as one vehicle for combat purposes you will have in effect a vessel that can deliver a respectable amount of firepower with each shot. And the large size of the group and heavy shielding will allow them to withstand more than a few shots form the advanced PDC cannons and other weaponry you are likely to face.
Even with this though they are going to take heavy losses. They will do some damage going down though and allow your capital ships a few extra combat rounds to do their thing.
