Unless you're assuming a fringe case where the newbies are all playing Freelancer for the first time, this outcome is genuinely impossible. Any players putting in a genuine effort will just grind the ace down with missiles alone, not even accounting for what gun damage they'd be able to put in as well. If you're so helpless that you cannot kill a single dude with ten missile launchers supported by twenty guns, then there's nothing balance can do for you.
You're arguing things on the basis of a scenario that is simply not a thing anymore.
