What does he prefer? Missiles, projectiles, or beams?

Exactly what i do. I always turn the Tactical Combat and press AUTO. I like to watch the battles myself. I do not do it when, for example, i attack a planet, a single primitive ship against my fleet etc.

For his entertainment and practice with "Strategy" settings for you.The simulator would be ideal.

Actually, he prefers the WMG's of SEIII - remember that sound they made - he loves the sound, but from SEIV he likes the beam weapons - more color...

Never thought of the auto for him - I usually will do that if I slip and click Tac (instead of Strat( by mistake...

PS. Its kinda funny, but as long as Ive been playing SEIV, I've never used the simulator. I used to use it in SEIII all the time. I guess maybe I'll give it a whirl...
