Has anyone fought a battle involving capital ships on one side and
destroyers (or smaller) on the other?

It would seem to me that if the smaller ships can survive to get into
the
larger ship's blind spot, it's history... but the smaller ships are
definitely going to die before they get there.

A possible strategy for the larger ship would be to stop dead, so as to
be
able to pivot to any direction and blast the destroyers out of space no
matter where they go.
