Things (BUGS?) that didn't change

Yes repositioning before battle would help but that would still leave the other side open.. Equal spacing 3 of those with long range weapons would force the attackers to take out at least one before spending a lot of energy on the planet. Even then to get in range to hit the planet would probably put them in range of at least one of the other two stations.

4 of them would always put the attackers in range of 3 defending stations unless the attackers choose to stand off a corner and attack one station only with missles. Again even if they take out one station they will have to put up with being in range of two other stations when they try for the planet.

I guess a human controlled very large fleet with very large ships with massive mount weapons could take out two stations at once and still have enough combat turns left to get the planet but the AI isn't that smart.
