I did try to look in the archives before I did my
post, but I couldn't find what I needed in the
archive or the experimental search. I apologise
if I opened old wounds. We do use fighter morale.

My problem is that I don't particularly like the
carrier battle. I'm a WWI battleline man at heart
(which FT is very good at by the way), but I can't
design ships like that because they get chewed by
by fighters. By the time I add enough PDSs to 
defend myself (I don't know how many that is because
I've never managed to defend myself) I don't
have many points left for big guns. I know, sounds
like a personal problem, but I'd like to be able
to defend myself better. I think it's a reasonable
thing to wish for a anti-fighter missile system 
like the Standard in use in the fleet.
