"Hey, its better than nothing, right? It also means one more chance that the enemy will miss (If either shot (CV or AS) misses, your ship will not be converted)
Plus, you now have two things to target with your null-space cannon; disabling either CV or AS ensures your victory." S-J.
Good point, S-J. The null space is indeed the most formidable opponent, winning about 48% of the time against the AS. Whoever gets in the first shot wins, 98% of the time on the first combat round. The reason it is not exactly 50% each is that occasionally the AS's first shot comes at exactly strike distance 11 (5 moves plus 6 range). He knocks out the null space engines with the virus, cannot fire his AS (range 5), uses his worm, then finished null space off easily later as null is reduced to one move point. Of course, in tactical combat, AS rules null space easily using the "just out of range" tactic. Incidentally, null space does only about 40% against the talisman beamer in strategic (smaller chance of getting in the first shot due to a greater range difference; 8 versus 5 to the AS's 6 versus 5).
By the way, what is a Battlemoon? A base ship? I have only looked at Dreadnought class so far.
