Re: Fleets pass each other by??
When both fleets are in adjacent squares, then it works like this:
Player A, which is moving to a planet and is on top of the player list, moves first and he moves into the fleet of Player B who is intercepting fleet A. Player A has now spent his movement point.
Player B, who is below Player A on the player list, can now move. As his fleet is already in the same square as the target he wishes to intercept, he spends his movement point to attack the enemy.
I'm not totally sure if you really need a movement point to initiate combat but definitely the fleets will not swap their places hunting each other. The player who is topmost of the playerlist will move first, players below after him in order of the list. The only way you can be screwed is when you are the topmost player IMHO because then and only then your ships will move before the other players down the list will move.
