Re: Re[2]: S'V Seekers

Interesting point.  Leaving aside the AI versus human aspect for a
moment
- what kind of forces are the fighters causing on the pilots/Weapons
Operators (in Torp craft)  as they close at high speed and evasive
maneuvers?  The relative speed of the ships proper would be pretty
dramatic themselves, especially high speed models (Factor 8 plus) not to
mention the inherent forces affecting forces moving by doctrine at
speeds
of 30+ Mu!
