Re: Why don\'t ships obey their $@#$@# fleet orders
I think formations work tolerably well if you are using small Groups and they have weapons that fire every turn. But missles or other weapons that have to reload will try to retreat whil they do so. This results in the ships on the right wing crossing over and vise versa and getting bLasted in the process. This is even worse for large Groups as they have farther to go.
It would be nice if you could have small formations within the fleet. Wingmen in effect. 30 ships in Groups of 2 or 3 that are independant of the other Groups would be devastating I would think. Unfortunatly there is no way to do that currently that I know of.
