Actually, the multirole attacker-interceptors seem to be costed about
right - they can only choose role once per turn, after all. Do you
really expect them to beat more than twice their number in standard
fighters?

I agree that carrying a lot of fighters and missiles is overpowered
under the current rules, but I don't think there's a lot of contention
about that, and it seems only fair to warn people!
