Does the fighter unit strategy tell them to fire on planets, or not?

Yes the fighter Groups were in the fleet.

The fighter unit strat does let them fire on planets. The fleet strat does not however and I set all types to not break formation. The fighters should have stayed in formation with the rest of the fleet and not gone off to glass the planet.

At least that is what I suspected. I dunno.. Doesnt that sound right? Or am I missing something... Running a blockade has proven to be quite difficult for me. My captains must have very itchy trigger fingers. Or perhaps they all want to be Captn Kirk pounding the command chair boldly ordering his crew to, "FIRE!"
