mj12games.com/forum → Starmada → Minimum fighter flight size
F.1 says the minimum fighter flight size is 4. Why? Especially for strikers/seekers, being able to launch an individual missile seems useful.
One could imagine a solitaire scenario where a number of very powerful strikers are launched at your ship, and your task is to survive...
Honestly, there's no specific reason. And in the Klingon Armada book, this rule is broken... 
At last, the flight size and shuttlecraft (ok they were for VBAM and FASA T**k conversions) in the shipyard are legit?

Personally id like to see flight size be open ended on the low and high end.
Firing a single missile, launching a single missile or a 2 fighter CAP for example.
Id also like decaying strikers, not sure how to point it though... for example a flight size XX striker flight that looses X strikers in the end phase of each turn after launch. This would let things like plasma torpedos be created... powerful weapons that lose capability the longer they travel.
If you want to model individual strikers/fighters, why not apply a fire-linked fighter ability? Essentially, all the fighters get treated as a single fighter. It would be a stopgap measure until better methods can be found...
