Deimos or Agamemnon...which is better against fighters ?

Which is the better anti fighter ship ? I got hands on both of them...

Deimos have 2 additional turrets but Aggy got 2 extra weapons.
Other than that everything is same except the Aggy looks better.

The Agamemnon has more FAA you can fit but the Deimos has all round coverage with its FAA.

Personally I would choose the Deimos for its hangar bay and Aggy for fleet setups.

well they both use psg's so its actually pretty even. though the Deimos does have better coverage when ur using those giant blue mushrooms of death coverage don't really matter. i would watch out tho psg's do tend to get lots of people pissed off at you cuzz well they are HUGE mushrooms that expand quite far and are the most common cause of friendly fire. so anyway the two ships are quite even if ur using psg's. but if ur using conventional flak then id go with the Deimos, cuz of the better coverage and the hanger bay, plus its much easier to get your hands on (unless ur scripting of course)

Agamemnon if you're using PSGs, Deimos if you aren't.

Reason is, the Deimos also has fighters, and the PSG is very bad about friendly fire.

i normally use the aggy against cap ships. reason being is its ability to mount 12 IBLs... the deimos i use for fighters FAAs where they can fit. a couple PSGs for main guns mixed with ISRs and CIGs and PSGs on the back.

as its been said, just be careful with the PSGs they can cause major friendly fire incidents if your not careful
