3 Marzas, a bunch of support cruisers from every race, and a cluster of flak.

70 vasari HCs and 30 carriers with fighters only because the fighters protect the HCs from bombers so the fleet can kill almost anything including fully upgraded starbases.

1 radience, 1 mothership, 1 revelation, 30 iliums, 30 crusaders, 20 carriers, 5 adjudicators and a bunch of support ships.

I'm a bit surprised no one here has included a small group of subverters.  Even 5 can turn a rather large fleet into nothing more than paper weights for quite a long durations.

give 16 caps... that's it

.... then bring all other 100 ships dream team..... ill blow them to pieces

 it hurts me read some of these

I vote 2 skiranta carriers, 2 kortuls, 84 carriers, 6 subverters, and 6 overseers.  All ships outfitted with bombers.  

PWNED.

Oh, and if I can mix in ships from other races, I would replace 4 carriers and 2 overseers with 4 hoshikos and 2 gaurdians.

He said of any race so I ran with it

did not specify that I had to stay in the same faction

-> create fleet -> tight formation -> engagement range "local"

progenitor (shield regen3 nothing else) fighters

halcyon (AoE SC knockback-kill)

RAPTURE !! (+% dmg for all SC)

37 Aeria (2:1 fighter bomber ratio)

20 Guardians (with pushback)

7 dominas (repair but mostly dispell)

3 Crusader (only for ruthlesness)

30 Illus (long range upgrade)

maybe cancle the illus and put all Aerias in

I was considering illuminators, too, but the simple question is this:  three beam attacks, or there strike craft squads?  It's tough to get over the 20 command drone host gag reflex, but in this case we have to presume that illums are of equal cost to carriers, in which case I see no real role for them.

i want 2 dunov, 1 marza, 60 flak and 40 hoshi's. because, in the end, there is nothing better to stall, annoy and piss off an enemy than lots and lots of flak with a really hard-to-kill marza climbing to lvl 6 in the middle

With drone hosts, I'd go with 2 fighters - 1 bomber.  It should also be noted that even with only fighters a drone host will defeat any flak frigate in a 1v1 fight.  Command-wise, you get multiple (5 for most factions, IIRC) flaks per drone host, but under the rules described above this doesn't happen.  It's 1 drone host to 1 flak, and drone hosts win that.

For a balanced fleet:1 Akkan, 2 Kols, 27 Hoshikos, 10 Carriers, 30 LRM, 30 Flak

Akkan would have level 3 range boost, both Kols would have level 3 flak, carriers 2 bombers each.

Would be set to hold position with Akkan in the center and Kol on each side a bit ahead.  LRMs would be clustered around the Akkan and behind the Kols, the carriers would be at the back.  The Flak would have 4 on each side of the Akkan with the remaining 22 in a circle around the fleet but still within range for the range boost from the Akkan.  The repair cruisers would be spread evenly through the fleet.

The two Kols firing their flak at the same time should be albe to make a significant dent in any strikecraft attack.  The flak with the range boost should be able to finish off what is left of the strikecraft.  With range research and cluster warhead plus the range boost from the Akkan the LRMs will outrange anything except for a similar combination.  The bomber may lure fighters to attack them instead of the LRMs, if not they should be able to do a bit of damage the enemy.  With the fleet set to hold position, the only choices are to try and overwhelm it with stikecraft or go and attack it resulting in it getting the first shot due the range boost.

Maybe drop 7-10 Hoshikos for more Carriers, some Kodiacs or a command cruiser or two, if permited drop 1 for a constructor to build a starbase behind the fleet and get defense, shipsyard and docking boom upgrades.

The LRMs would be droped for heavy cruisers, but that would cost the fleet a bit of range.

Unbalanced: 3 Kols, 97 carriers with fighters.

Maybe unbalanced: 1 Akkan, 2 Marza, 97 cobalts.  Use armistance to get into the middile of an enemy fleet, when it ends the Cobalts should reek havok with sabotage reactor and the Marzas can missile barrage.  Ideally, the cobalts will use sabotage reactor on all ships that can interupt the missile barages.  Of crouse, that all depends on the cobalts getting off sabotage reactor before they are destroyed.
