this is a feed about fighters not carriers
after all cariers just carry fighters to the battle
in the gc universe the only way fighters would work is as an offensive weapon just like the other three
the only difference is you get to decide what it does damage wise in other words you get to arm it
thus the only thing fighters are good for is offense but then the only defense against fighters is well fighters
the way i see it is the fighters in effect become another ship in combat you can use your main gums against the fighters but that would be a waste of time
the guns for a fighter would be the same size as the tiny hull which means that the fighter would only be able to sport one or two guns and never the top of the line ie the black holes
remember fighters are ships that have no intersteller flight capabilities so that leaves out the tiny hulls becouse they can be equiped with engines well at least one
fighters would come in squads of three or what ever that means that they can be built on a planet in squadron form only
when fighters are destroyed the whole squad is destroyed
if the carrier goes down so does the fighters at the end of the battle although the pilots would/could be rescued if any friendly ships remained in the battle
ok everyone else can have their say
(sorry about any and all misspelled words)
