Carriers/(Don't Get Hurt) in Strategic Combat

[dogscoff]

This is just the "don't get hurt" strategy all over. I avoid it all costs. Basically, your only options are "fight" or "die", so try one of the following:

-give your carrier long range wepaons and set tactic to "maximum weapons range". Tell it to target the nearest ship and it should keep a good distance from enemy ships. It won't take any notice of fighters though. Also no good if the enemy has longer range weapons than you.

-Set tactic to "Ram". If it has plenty of fighter support and some armour (organic is best=-) then it might well survive in a fighter battle. Note that strategic will only obey the ram tactic
if your ship has no weapons (except PDCs).
