Countless Swarm Drones flew through space in swarms. Swift and deadly, they constantly sought out targets before surging forward and firing innumerable plasma beams, attacking without pause until their targets were completely destroyed!
The Galactic Republic's fighters simply could not keep up with these Swarm Drones. Even when they managed to get into a trailing attack position, they were often shaken off after firing only a few shots.
The fighter formations had since abandoned any attempt to confront the drones head-on. They adjusted their strategy, focusing instead on driving them away. They fired missiles and lasers from farther off, forcing the drones to evade repeatedly and lose their targets.

Then I would throw a hundred thousand Zerg at you. Humanity's method, meanwhile, was firepower saturation! Using the Valkyrie missile frigate's immense firepower, they could create a vast, devastating barrage of missiles that left no gaps in the entire airspace!
Unfortunately, the Galactic Republic currently possessed neither option. Sending outnumbered fighter formations to chase Swarm Drones had an obvious outcome.
In StarCraft, try using Wraith fighters to play around with those drones without attacking the carrier itself, and you would know just how miserable it was...

"I need an answer! How can drones that small fire weapons with such terrifying power?!" Gideon Tarkin roared.
