You can always deselect all missiles but few and fire on the first target, then select few more and fire on the second ship, etc.

Iron Giant goes to speak, then thinks, then runs home to try clicking on the missles individually.........

However, before, 100 missile satelites pick 2-3 ships and send 30+ missiles to each target. Usually it is an overkill and a massive waste. With latest patch, I saw 10 ships been targeted and killed in the first salvo http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif [/quote]

So, to sum up (call me slow.....), If I go into tactical battle with my satellites, I have to fire all the satellites at one target, but If I let the combat play itself out, the satellites are allowed to pick their own targets? If thats the case, 100 medium Satellites with 2 fast missles just started looking killer again.... as long as I don't hit tactical..
