Fighters

-Fighters
Fighters are used in excess to destroy multiple smaller units in the game. Anything up to/including the cruiser can be fighter dropped with relative ease. Bigger units like death stars will take a tad more fighters, though overall fighters are usually the most balanced ship in the game despite being the smallest.

Good Against: Bombers, Heavy Bombers, Ion Bombers, Destroyers, Fighters

Bad Against: Heavy Cruisers, Battleships, Dreadnoughts, Titans, Leviathans, Death Stars.
Why use them? Fighters are good meat shields, they keep other ships/defensive structures alive a little longer. They are vital when using big ships (Titans, Leviathans and Death Stars). When gathered into massive numbers (over 500k), they are a force to be reckoned with, unless the opponent has a lot of Heavy Cruisers.

how to fighter drop

people can be unsure what this means so heres a quick run through..

say your useing carriers to move your fighters(FT) you move them to your target send your carriers away just leaving your fighters(FT) at the location of your target then attack with them..

fighter(FT) drops are used to clear unshielded units before you finish with your bigger guns but you can fighter swarm a target..
