Regarding the use of chaff vs. jamming on ships, I pretty much just use chaff and don't bother taking up slots with jammers.

I usually use some jamming, unless I am trying to counter a specific design. If you don't, you run a risk of having your chaff negated in a battle.

Take a recent battle in a game. Using sappers, I was able to drop the shields on an opponents stack of BB's in the first combat round. At that point, his BB's became more attractive to missiles than his chaff.
