Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I *thought* this question came
up shortly after the FleetBook came out, and Jon (T) responded that MT
missiles reacted to (or rather, were acted upon by) PDS in the same
manner
as Salvo Missiles (ie, an MT missile was taken out on a roll of 4-6 -
but
each MT missile was considered *one* salvo [emphasis mine ;) ]).

If I have time (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! "if I have time" - I kill me!
:)
I'll try wading through the archives to find this, or my own backlogged
emails to see if I saved it.
