I've been out of town for the weekend, came back to massive number of
e-mails, and have only skimmed this.
Has the idea of dividing massed fighter v ship battles into a fixed
number
of fighters per attack, and PDS shooting once per 'attack', as opposed
to
once per turn been mentioned again? I had suggested the PBS of there's
no
problem with room enough for an unlimited number of fighters attacking,
but
that there was a limiting factor in coordinating the fighters to attack
at
the same time to overwhelm PDS. Unlimited squadrons attack per turn,
finite
overwhelming of PDS.
I never thought this was THE solution, but a bit of a balance against
droves of fighters. Of course, it does conflict the part of the rules
that
state once per turn, fighters or SML's...
