Whats wrong with fleet battles?

[HoakinBlackforge]

I was reading the conversation on the shoutbox about "ganking" and superiority numbers, and i dont understand, why it seems nobody takes fleet composition into mind?

Or, pre-battle planning and strategy? Get your squads into better positions, in you know, FUCKING SPACE.

The first cap battle i joined as an outcast was awesome, i worked more as a flanking support and helped to take down one of the corsair dreadnoughts, i mostly fired my emp pulse to take down quickly its shields.

But i feel that people when it comes to fleet battles just limit themselves to bring as many caps as possible. Which i find dumb, because then the other fleet could bring a bomber squadron to torpedo the shit out of the enemy caps while theirs keep taking most of the attention.

ok, lets set an example:

its a 10 player vs 10 players battle. its a battle for control over a base. the fleet that destroys the base first wins.

the area sorrounding the base is clean and open, but in a 15click radius, its covered by a strange nebula ring that reduces scanner range detection.

each fleet would come from the opposite directions of eachother from different jumpholes, having to cross the nebula to reach the base.

What is your plan?
