Tactical combat in MP?

I'm just curious, if you did a simultaneous hotseat game, could you at least view the battle in tactical mode?

I do not believe so. Then again I have never tried.

Only strategic combat is available in simultaneous movement mode. You can certainly always watch the replays, which are like tactical mode except that you get to see fewer details...

IIRC, you get to see hits/misses, movements, exploded ships, and probably shields/hull.
You don't see damage progress, only before and after. However you can extrapolate some of the damage progress by the actions of the ship (speed of movement, which guns it fires, etc)
