Yeah, you and me both. SOL on that one.

The two blockade strategies in USM both have all ships set to break formation - yet, presumably, they have been tested and work properly.
Some of the stratagies in USM were written before the Last patch (or maybe a few patches ago) when ships that broke formation still followed the fleet stratagy. I think that I prefered it that way, because ships are often most effective when they are not locked in a formation, and you probably want to determine stratagies for a FLEET rather than an entire class of ships.

The DefaultStrategies.txt in USM looks very good. I think I will start using it regularly.
and then you'll wish that you had your OWN parade of victory formation...
