I would a fleet to have a wait period before ships breaking formation. Best I can currently do is use a formation that puts the leader in front and make the weakest ship the leader so the fleet disperse once combat begins. Of course if they target strongest, they will ignore the lead ship. Perhaps a checkbox to break formation as soon as first fire occurs or a range to enemies at which the formation breaks up. This change would allow mixed speed fleets to close together for a while and then when close enough, the faster ships can do their thing (board, ram, etc).

Missles ought to be smart enough to retarget with remaing movement capability. It really stinks when 20+ missles disappear because the target was destroyed.
