I also use only shields that come with the capships. All my cruisers/Destroyers have ONLY cruiser shields. Even if the entire server used BS shields on cruisers, I wouls still only use a cruiser shield. there is no fun in a game that is so incredibly unbalanced that you have to be more cheap to beat others. Thats why I always go for the more balanced option instead of what would benefit only me. In 4.75 I'm sure a fighter with capship weaps would have been funny and fun, but invincible... Which is why I never made one...
