it's funny, since i started playing i've lost a total of 1 battle. every other time i've lost about 1-2 ships in an ymajor engagement against the a.i, even against technological equals, the a.i's ships tend to suck, gaus cannons vs lasrs is a bad thing for the gauss ton for ton. though my tac doc works well against spoilers, 8 9kton destroyers: 1DL with fbridge, 3 DE's , & 4 DDG's respectively. 3 sqaudrons of those screening for 2 cruiser sqaudrons of similar organisation is quite the handful, in short my ad vice is that quantity has its own quality.
