This is savage! Given that atillery is a multi unit thing, as well as
multi shot (art damaga values also represent *speed* of firing), it
makes that 1 chit the most feared in the whole pile!

It happened to me twice!!!! On the first target!!!!

The way I see missiles is that they travel *extramly fast* and have
extramly sofisticated guidence, that is they see a target, they fire and
let the guidence do the work (a bit like fire and forget missiles on
fighters)

So a target is spotted moving, missiles fire, and then can be resolved
last as you say.

Maybe if Jon can give an augery to us about this :-)
