Title: Fighter Salvos
Post by: Rich.h on November 19, 2014, 05:31:19 PM
How do salvos work when fired from fighters? If I have a squadron of 10 fighters with 2 box launchers each, is it a single salvo of 20 missiles or 10 salvos of 2 missiles for point defence purposes?

If fired in the same increment, then 1 of 20.

What? Why would you even think that in the first place? And it's not exactly hard to sandbox it long enough to prove it untrue.

10 salvos of 2 missiles, of course.

Salvos are based on missile fire controls.  Salvo size is however many launchers are assigned to a single fire control.
