Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???
Seekers should never miss. The 1% to-hit number doesn't really mean anything. If the number is from 1 to 100, you can launch, if it's 0, you're out of range.
Seekers can, however, "drop off". For example, a missle with range 10 (CSM II, I believe has that range) is launched at a target eight squares away. The target moves three squares away (might work at two as well, never really sat and tested it), and stays there. The missile will appear to go right over the ship, and just disappear, without the explosion, no damage done. Move one more out of range and the missile disappears just before the target.
