Light Fighter Combat Tactics

[Thexare]

I have a very counterintuitive suggestion for large battles, involving all sorts of fighters, bombers, and caps:

If your own capitals aren't in trouble, or you don't have any, charge right at theirs. Chances are they're not gonna be able to keep track of who is what ship, and they'll assume in the chaos of a battle that whatever is charging at them and shooting them actually can kill them. This will draw fire away from the bombers.

I've done this against smuggling Luxury Liners (in a Karasu HF) and the old Corsair Lunchbox (in a Scimitar) to great effect.

You'll have to be good at dodging to pull it off, though.
