If you are worried about fighters in a FT game (or you know your
opponent is
using soap bubble carriers) try using my caterphract (PDS CLE) or
carbine
with AFSML`s designs. Add a couple of these to your task force, and if
positioned right (and your opponent doesn`t expect them) they eat
fighters.
Highly amusing the first time I used them (we were using rules that
meant
opponents didn`t know what the enemy had until after the ship opened
fire).

This discussion about cat/dog aliens reminds me of a comment I heard a
while
ago, in that we humans are actually pitiful species. we are weaker,
slower,
poorer scences, less natural weapons/defences than any equaly sized
species
around at the moment. If we could give a natural efficient preditor
(dog/cat/gorrila etc) our one advantage (inteligence), we could create a
better soilder than a human.
