he should still be able to target the biggest enemy fleet with his own big fleet.

And that *is* the problem.
You can make him target your heaviest fleet, but move it so that he can't catch it, whilst your lighter fleet remains untargetted and can go where it pleases - usually past the ships that would normally have blown it up.

As Ashlyn says, if you are doing this then you know you are doing it (not withstanding the rare occasions where you might want to move your heavy ships away from the interceptors, like freighters just picking up lots of salvage, or keeping bombers just out of reach whilst you remove bases and/or minefields).

There is a lot of discussion in FreeStars! on how to remedy this, without much success.
