I have been playing FT/MT for a short time and have used the
More
Thrust rules on fighter order of movement. I have not found fighters to
be
unbalanced or overly powerful at all. If anything they appeared to be
too
weak in comparison to the A battery.
What have I missed? With the limited speed of fighters and their
vulnerability, (especially to scatterguns) how are you using them so
effectively?
