I think setting up a dummy game is probably the best idea. I think that what I am seeing is a bug. I have considered your comments and there are two things from my observations that come to mind.

1. The most important point I can make here is that I have tried the same simulation in both Strategic and Tactical modes. In tactical mode I can get all the weapons to fire on all targets that are in range. No exceptions. Then I switch to Strategic and everything goes out the window?

2. I use direct fire weapons that fire every turn. You can't use warp weapons on a weapons platform.

I'm hoping that the problem is the simulator, and thanks for the idea aiken, you have given me an idea which will test my theory. I'll let you know once I've had time to try your idea out.

I can think of two things I hope can be changed for SE5. A simulator that works properly and warp weapons for weapons platforms. Oh yeah, ECM's don't work on weapons platforms either, well,... in strategic simulation that is ???.... and I just realized something else........ I spend way tooooo much time playing this retched game!
