Ship strategies
If a ship is filled with missiles what is the strategy after "Optimimum Range"? Will the ship automagically move out of range and then back again on the 3rd turn? Can that be set?

Re: Ship strategies
It is best to set them to "Maximum Weapons Range". Optimal won't work very well. Ships in strategic combat tend to move then fire, or fire then move. They don't move, fire, move.

Re: Ship strategies
Set your max range to primary strat=max range, then secondary strat=dont' get hurt, works much better IMHO,

Wouldn't that cause the ship to move closer rather than move out of range?
