A basic guide to choosing your ships before a battle.
==The rule of thumb==
Now, you have all kinds of ships and such, and they're all more or less effective against one another, but they do have a general trend. Any ship is always more effective against the ship below it in terms of the order of reasearch (naturally excluding the transport ships), and less effective against one directly above it on the "chain". Anything two "links" or above is usually equally or less effective against the other ship (this excludes fighters, as their mid-long range DPS just isn't high enough to take on dreadnoughts). For example, a corvette is deadly against fighters (making it uniquely highly effective against ships two links below it), and heavy fighters, but it is easily overpowered by the higher hit points of the destroyer. However, corvettes are very effective against battleships and dreadnoughts because of their much greater speed. Let me explain why it works like this: A ship only one link below another ship is not significantly faster than the other ship, making it's speed advantage minimal.
