Default RE: Is combat dead?

Strykers are just high speed jousting until one of them gets totalled with an ill timed "herk, jerk, zig or, zag".

Highly tapered wings don't pick off streamers too well.

What I do like about the idea of electric combat is the speed can be perfectly governed and the motors could be run at a fraction of their max output. No oil to interfere with quick repairs
is an obvious plus.
Slow, tight and light furball activity invites moving the action in closer. I've always wanted enforcable limits to a real tight flight box to keep the action turning and burning.
