If a stack of weapon platforms act like a stack of SATs then the targeting is not by individual platform, but by platform design type.

ex..

1. All 5 SAT1s target 1. 2 SAT1s kill it, so 3 SAT1s don't fire until next round.
2. SAT2s fire on next target 2, depleting shields.
3. SAT3s are shield depleters, so a new target 3 is picked.
4. SAT4s are missles, all SAT4s fire at target 2.
5. SAT5s damage target 2.
6. SAT6s are missles, al fire on target 2.

note: (first laid, first to fire, all SATs use first startegy)

Stack Mulitplexing is helped by changing the (only X) weapon type, the design name, or killing the target.
I don't know how this affects a WP with multiple weapon types.

So a swarm of small ships with planetary weapons could easily overwhelm a planets defenses, esp a missle defense. Throw in a few RAD and Plague bombs and just blockage for a while.
