Talk:Heavy Fighter

Engine
One good trait of HF is that the engine type and base speed are identical to improved SCs. It's possible to use HF/SC raiding parties once GCs are wide-spread. It's too annoying to have CR losses on all raids because of these GCs, but HFs might have lower losses.
 * Heavy Fighters also do not suffer from the Bounce Effect vs Large Shield Domes, and thereby help contribute damage against them. Also, could they be used as anti-fodder fodder in defensive battles, assuming the enemy fleet has LF's as their primary fodder?
