Default Anti-Treason Satellites!

OK, so I was in a PBW game and I had some missile satellites set up to defend one of my planets... Well Dinesku's fleet (more like an escort and a troop transport ) comes along to conquer the planet. Finding no WP's, the transport immediately rushes for the planet. My satellites then launch their missiles (about 60 of them!) launch missiles at the transport, but the transport makes it to the surface in time and drops troops, and then is promptly destroyed by the missiles.

Well, then came the part I DIDN'T expect... On the next turn, the satellites launched missiles again - I thought they were launching at the escort, which was still closing, but instead the missiles zoomed toward the planet and wiped out the colony that Dinesku's transport had just captured!!!

Who ever knew that watching combat replays could be so much fun!

(Incidentally, the colony had no population on it, as Spoo's intel attacks had depleted it of population )
