Ok. You destroy 1 ship per turn, as the other GHBs can't fire at other ships. So, you still gain nothing when using GHBs over APBs.

Surely you can find spare 10 for Multiplex Tracking in Baseship !
Has Multiplex been fixed in a recent patch? Last I checked, it did not work in strategic combat. Ships only fire at one target per round (discounting PDC fire).

Ok, that is just as bad as not firing at multiple targets at all.

I think they're just talking about the damage threshold in strategy firing tactics. Multiplex tracking works under AI control in the current patch, so it will shoot until it reaches the indicated percentage, and then switch to a target that is not damaged to that point yet.
