How to trivially defeat anti-shield weapon equipped fleets

[Zanthis]

Version 1.35 . Yes, I used real tactical combat. I find using strategic combat physically painful. Watching the AI control my ships causes me to suffer intense migraines. I only use it if I am extremely bored and I can be certain even the computer can win the battle for me without any damage to my fleet.

As far as shield depleting weapons, what kind are you using to hit fighters with? In 1.35, the only thing with better than 1% to hit is PDC. I think I'll mod them real quick to be shield depleting to test it for sure, but otherwise, ship-to-ship weapons never hit (although, guess I could use a talismon).
