Honestly I think the issue lies primarily in fact you have left out CR which unbalances the combat and that you are trying to combine Zik with Xan which was never going to work.

Also the fact Zik has no viable def ship outside its roiding fleets doesn't help it. You would have been better combining Zik with Cat or Etd to take advantage of emp allowing a low int norm ship to be used on defence and make Zik decent.
Xan can't land Terran solo?
Beetle is high eff against Xan FI

Basically that leaves:

Ter DE landing TER/CAT/XAN solo
Ter BS landing CAT/ZIK/ETD solo

Cat CO landing XAN/ETD solo.
Cat FR landing XAN/ETD solo.

Xan FI landing ETD/ZIK/XAN solo.
Xan FR landing ZIK/XAN/TER solo.

Zik FI landing ZIK/CAT solo.
Zik BS landing CAT/XAN/ZIK/ETD solo.

ETD CO landing TER/ZIK/ETD solo.
ETD DE landing TER/ETD solo.

I think the last change has levelled the playing field.

(Run calcs to disprove please, it's not subjective)

Anyone else have input on Zik-gate?
