digs through Halopedia for info, because know your enemy.

Now, let me just say that unless your gauntlet of transport crafts are heading from the side, there is no plausible way it can cut through a shield capable of blocking Death Star shots. Regardless, turbolaser rain onto them.

It appears you dropped your dreadnoughts behind mine. Now that would be bad for me, but as all military leaders know it is a good idea to keep reserves. And I did. (I don't think I need to specify that.) Dozens of smaller Republic vessels (stolen by the Empire), in formation around a Mandator 2 dreadnought, jumps into the area so that it along with the cruisers in the rear turning around can attack the supercarriers from 2 sides. Cue nuclear missiles and Orbital Cannons, as well as rains of turbolasers and railgun projectiles.

Those EMP things are viewed by the Point Defense on the various ships as enemy starfighters, and they are cut down by small missiles and laser flak cannons.

The carriers (Venators, Lucrehulk, etc) quick-deploy waves of various fighters (TIE-M series, Vulture droid fighters, ARC-170 heavies) and bombers (more TIE-Ms, Hyena droid bomber, trifighter) in a looping-around formation. The fighters engage the incoming Banshees, while the bombers with their escorts prepare to blitz the supercarriers. Meanwhile the carriers themselves move closer to the center.

And also, tractor beams to push those suicide bombers away. But some ships get downed.

Some of the dreadnoughts (mine) turn sideways so as to give more firepower to the rear. Rest remain in forward position.
