@:) Howdy folks; got a question concerning Pulse torpedoes. I put
@:) together a Klingon BC based on the version in STMP, with the fwd
@:) and aft firing PT. It was decided that this version requires an FC
@:) for each tube, plus one for the beam batteries. So far so good,
@:) but the Fed player wondered, (and asked me to ask) since the
@:) Enterprises' PT are both facing forward and are (or would seem to
@:) usually bbe) fired at the same target. Could you only use 1 FC for
@:) both tubes?

  Yes.	One fire control is required to fire any number of torpedoes
at one target in a turn.  It's not one FC per torpedo tube.  The rules
don't go out of their way to make this explicit, but it is there if
your read carefully.

  Where's that durned FAQ?
