  Well, like the bismark they will discover that Multiple fighters are a
problem.  Try the same scenario with any fighter 2 tons/less
with at least 1 weapon that is capable of 1 hullpoint of damage.  under the
same scenario could smoke a hammership and move on to the next. The losses
will be a little heavier but the point is it can still be done.

  However, I was speaking of fighters in general. NOT the eye-fighters
specifically. And it could work in reverse.  While it is harder to hit a
fighter it should be more difficult for a fighter with fixed weapons to hit
its target while dodgeing about.  This should be especially true of fighters
with single crewmembers.

  This was intended as a general discussion not for beholderspace
specifically.
