Morphologis discusses some of the issues with big ships vs small fighters.

It’s too easy for fighters to take out larger ships.

Personally I think that if turret gunners were given some sort of flak weapon, it would be a good way to handle this situation.

    I thought PDC were able to fire at small ships? And armour will mitigate that complain as small ships won’t be able to penetrate defenses anymore.

    I feel like capital ships are longing for a gameplay situation where large flight groups are made because they’re going too far out for reinforcements or station services to make any impact. Groups that would include combat, supply, and maybe industrial and/or medical vehicles.

    That wouldn’t be the only use case for them, of course, but that seems like one where they’re properly needed.
