OK I just had to put this to attention.

I've been loosely following this channel for a while and seen some first footage a few weeks back. While it's pretty short, just a few minutes, the visual quality is just plain awesome!

Eclipse II-class dreadnought vs Viscount-class Star Defender: the Ultimate Battle of the Titans. No other words to describe such an epic confrontation.
There are too few fighters though. I understand the author was focusing on the Dreadnoughts, but I would have expected to see many more fighters.
A Viscount-class Star Defender carries up to 216 fighters and the Eclipse II carries more than 600 fighters from the TIE series.
I don't judge tactics. The Battle is the best and only Judge.

Am I blind or there are actually 0 fighters till the arrival of New Republic reinforcements?

I'm afraid you are right.
