What fleet compositions do you dread facing...

J

Jim?

Mongoose
Not including Gaim. 5 point raid lists

Some of my least favourite...

Whitestar
Avenger with Auroras
12 Bluestars (if a game allows hyperspace, I think that's 10 jump point bombs (half fleet FAPs) needing 5s? Nasty... Even without that, they can pretty much fight only when they want to.)

5 Ashintas

4 Teshlans
1 Leshath

2 Tinashis
1 Ashinta

In fact, any Minbari fleet at all (damn you boneheads!), except 2 Troligans and a Leshath. That's just fun and pretty much fights like a real fleet should!

2 Liatis
8 Havens

Any fleets you really don't like the thought of playing?
 
Strangely enough there aren't many fleets I don't like facing - even if they have loaded up on the cheese, I'll try and beat them despite it.

That said, Greg's suggestion of mainly Demoses comes close to being top of the list (if I don't have a lot of fighters anyway)

The other fleet would have to be a mainly White Star fleet with Blue Stars backing up as initiative sinks (either a 4-4 split of ships or a 3-8 split).

However, given that I change the fleet I use so often, there aren't really any nemesis fleets!
 
I don't really dread whitestars/bluestar fleets, it just feels like hard work trying to kill the dratted things.
 
dilgar pentacon backed up by stupid numbers of scouts. I think its was 5pt raid and 3 Targrath an ochlavita khi and one jashakar vi in the pentacon. With 5 jashakar vis sat back lighting everything up multiple times and acting as sinks it was horrible.
 
4 Maximus Frigates spamming CBD and using Guardian Array on a random big ship.

Psi Corps Motherships when the player is one of our locals who averages 200-300% on his beam hits. We are passing a house rule where he can only roll dice that are missing 4s, 5s, and 6s.

Anything with Stealth.

He's but alittle Psi Corp! I have had a few 17 beam hits of my mother ship thats over 400%+

The Corp Is Mother
The Corp Is Father!
 
those were some fun MtG decks...
Like Thallids but less moldy body-parts and more cute and cuddly furballs of DOOM!
 
@Jim? - Just a minor aside, but when hyperspace is allowed, half your fleet refers to half in number of ships NOT fleet composition, this has been clarified on quite a few occasions so basically in that fleet listed above, that would be 12 ships so you could only keep 6 of the bluestars in hyperspace (thats still nasty of course!).

To be honest though the Avenger is a wonderful little choice as an ISA ally choice anyway as it nicely covers the weakness whitestars have to fighter attack :P

Overall though, fleets I dread facing:

Early EA beam spam (Olympus gunships and Laser Tethys en masse)
Early EA missile spam (missile Hyps, Saggs and Missile Tethys en masse)
Dilgar pentacans of your head asplode
Psi Corps motherships, lots of them. Theyre NASTY.

Thats all that spring to mind, I'll gladly take on any other fleet (and ill still gladly take on any of the above, I just expect a really hard fight ;))
