Thrawns revenge - TIE Defenders

[Darth_AK]

Hello guys,
I am playing Thrawns revenge right now, and I have a little problem..maybe big. I will be straight - For one year, I played on easy difficulty (LOL, lame..I know), but before one month, I decided to jump on medium! I am playing Hunt for Zsinj right now - everything is pretty good, except one thing - Zsinjs TIE Defenders! How can I stop them? AI sent on me 49 squadrons of this little ♥♥♥♥♥ and it wiped out my whole fleet - 4 Mon Calamari cruisers, 2 ISD-II and about 10 Hapans battledragons. My fighters cannot defeat them, my capital ships cannot defeat them. Any suggest?

Thank you, and sorry for my really bad English.

I tried only Caraccs cruiser. Thank you, I will try lancers.

TIE Defenders are one of the best fighters in the game. They can hold their own in most fighter versus fighter combat and their concussion missiles and ion cannons let them double as light bombers.

Any sort of fighter screening vessel and some of the more advanced fighters and interceptors are really your only options. I don't remember what ships the Republic has available to them in that era but you can try using Quasar Fire or Endurance carriers to tie them up with fighters or purchase E-Wings seperately. Corellian Corvettes are good choices as they're both inexpensive and only take up a single population point. Many frigates and light cruisers such as the Corona-class and Nebulon B also either sport anti-fighter weaponry or carry fighter squadrons that might help.
