Out of curiosity, what effect would allowing "wasted kills" from
successful PDS 
attacks to carry over to other squadrons attacking  the ship?  Has the
advantage 
of eliminating the time spent designating which PDS will fire at which
squadron 
and such.  Just roll you PDS dice, total up the kills, and remove that
many 
fighters, then resolve their attacks.
