Ship Design Questions

[Elowan]

A few questions for you veterans of the space wars:

1) do CM's fire only every other turn? If you have 4 on a ship - do they all fire at once or alternate?

2) if they fire every other turn - then it seems wise to have some direct fire weps mixed in with the CM's. Yes?

3) if given the choice - do you max out your DF weps or armor? If armor - what's the minimum DF wep(s) you install? Ditto for CM's.

4) how about PDF's. How many or minimum do you install?

5) at basic tech lvl for each - do you install all available sensors (3)?

6) once at contra-terrene+ with the extra movement point(s) - do you ever sacrifice an engine for extra armor or ...?

7) do all DF/CM ships make sense?

8) how about an all sensor/contra-sensor ship?

9) how about a picket ship with LR sensor and PDF's?

Thanks for the input.
