An interesting tactic.	I figure the needle beamers get only one pass at
the 
target fleet.  Are they effective enough to take out a sufficient number
of 
the opponent's ADFCs?  If the ADFCs have been concentrated on a few
escort 
cruiser class ships, perhaps.  One counter to that tactic is to place
ADFCs
on all ships and two or more ADFCs on the larger mass ships.
