Weapons simulations?

[Suicide Junkie]

The "damage target until all weapons destroyed" and the other targetting options don't come into effect between shots; they trigger between volleys.

Since platforms are one big stack, the volley includes everthing its got.

I'm not sure if you can install wormhole beams on platforms in stock, but if you can, that would make a great way to help divvy up your fire.
Hit 'em with a handful of massive APBs, and then warp 'em away out of range. The remaining guns are forced to fire on a new target.

Especially with missiles, if you have a large amount of overkill, the planet may hold back some of its weapons to shoot at a different target next turn while reloading the first ones.
