Impossible, can't think of one that worked that didn't have an inbuilt
set
of implicit or explicit campaign, doctrine, 'technological limits' rules
to
go with it.
And FT neatly has those in the published designs.
Personally, I like the idea of the Anti-Fighter EMP Buglight - I'm not
sure
how I'd work the idea since ADFC/PDS DD's have always worked pretty well
for
me.
If fighters are that much of a problem - don't play with them.
