Default Re: Order of weapons fire / damage?

Bah! It was to another player that I suffered this. The AI would *never* get me in the position I'm in in this game...(ie: really really screwed)

And, well, I did see that answer in the FAQ, but, gosh, I would swear that although I *was* the defender, my guys still didn't fire first. Maybe it's something with my strategies...

Dam, why that never happens to me?
I always win, mostly because the AI can't put together a fleet as big as mine, so I take on their fleets at piece meal.
I would be sooo cool to lose to the AI.

Aside from attacking Homeworlds, all other fights are way too easy. When it comes to a war of attrition the AI can't compete.

The only thing the AI managed to do quite well its sabotages, and that only until I found out the tactic of colonizing a system with at least 2 breathable planets with low resource output and devoting it to Intelligence, no matter how bad my research situation.
