You forgot the other option which is zero magazines (all racks).  I buy
all
SMRs because the plan is to have a lot of missiles arrive all at once
and
overwhelm his PDS.  The cost savings of a magazine isn't worth spreading
out
my salvo over time, IMHO.

Now, you might want to have successive waves so your first strike can
kill
the banzai jammers without committing massive overkill.  It is
frustrating
to land 14 missiles on a frigate with 10 hull, particularly when there's
a
heavy cruiser going neglected.	However, rather than use magazines and
launchers to generate successive waves, I chose to have one ship launch
the
first wave, then another ship come within range next turn and launch the
second.  hat way, if you lose ship #1, you haven't lost the firepower
because it has launched already.
