No harm done here, Blitchga. In a nutshell Zak nailed it. But your answers did, too. What was your list in the tournament? And what your tactics. I'm all for CV-lists, but I don't see how I could make them work with Terrans. -
Or you could de-price them about 30-40% and use them as light carriers or escort carriers. If cheapend only a bit it would be a nice idea to field them in squadrons of two, even reduce their shields to 2. I still don't get it why Terran carriers would be armed with such powerful RB2 weapons. It's completely against any carrier-doctrine. The Ares class is a good ship, but with Artemis DD-type RB3 weapons it would gain much more combat survivability. Now, Terrans pay a shitload of points for 12 wings but the carriers themselves suck as combat vessels. They need to fly into the heat to do a minimum of damage. This means they also endanger their wings when they launch or land. As I said, stupid design for any carrier doctrine.

We had only one mine being deployed successfully so far. My Dindrenzi opponent put one ontop of a FF squadron. Bad for one of them...

Most play 1000 points and up.

I meant bombers can only use PD against interceptors, not torpedoes etc. We play with the FAQ, but my opponent uses escorts for his capital ships. With so many PD dice you might easily loose 2 wings, which pretty much degrades bombers to cruiser killers. In addition, any additional losses will be hard to replace by deck crews. The MAR works only one per ship per game, too, so early losses will pull you down in any subsequent attacks. I think it's necessary to support the first bomber attack with an all out attack by a capital ship (BB/DN) to diminish the targets PD. -
Thanks. I think they look to small.

I did this once and it took ages. Even escorts don't fall with just one volley. At least it's difficult to kill all three escorts one BB or DN might have. You need to pack some long-range firepower for those escorts. -

I think bombers can only use PD in defense, not in attack. -
These look like fighters. What kind of ships are they?
-
I think the diffrence really is that some ships are Carriers concerning MPV, this is a ship type thing and basically irrelevant during game. Then there are carriers that can carry or host wings, refule and rearm them etc. This is an ingame thing.
-
Hmmm... Never thought about that actually. Good point.
-
I'd go with a BB1 and a DN. I don't have a Terran BB2 and I don't see the point. Why exactly does it swap RB1 and 2?
