Subject: FT: interceptors
Since inteceptor fighter groups cannot attack ships then we rarely play with them and prefer the standard fighter as it has that multi-role capability. The few times I've used inteceptors I've noticed that, yes, they kill the group they attack, but they themselves are so decimated that they aren't much of a threat to other groups any more. IMO, interceptors should be faster (that's why they're called inteceptors) so should move at 36 instead of 24. They also should be tougher to kill by other fighters, treat as if level-1 screened vs other fighter types (i.e., "heavy", how does that work with the Kra'vak fighters?).
