The arcs seem to be very versatile just like the xwing (I know there made by the same company) and the victory compares to a small ISD1. The providence I like just cause it seems to be able to handle the VSD1 quite well and the nebulon Bs frigates.

I guess it also depends if they're attacking or defending. If you're defending you can just arrange your ships in a tight cluster and let them run into you because they don't have too much firepower.
If you have to attack, it can get a bit messy if your ships end up facing the wrong way

They also had a habit of sort of retreating damaged gladiators, so at the end of the fight it was just half hp gladiators everywhere.

The AI were pretty challenging for me

In Era 2 I think you get access to the Patrol Craft (the small pirate one) and the things in groups of four absolutely shred incoming fighters.
Personally I use the Crusader Corvette buildable with the Asteroid Base (Thanks Leonia Tavira !). That's a powerful anti-fighter ship I think. And if I can't assemble them, Secutors are definitively the best fighter-carriers ever.

I've heard of this as well
