We arrived a bit late (had to pick Toni up at Wallasi-Yi after she
did a week on the AT) so unfortunately missed the DS games.  :(

Fortunately for us Aimee wrangled a couple FT games and we played
a game late Saturday and a 4K to the side game Sunday.	That
game featured my admiral running 1500 points of FSE up to 9 MU
from the full NAC fleet, backwards.  A succesful mooning was
performed and it only cost his entire escort.  It was a fun game 
with some great terrain.  Lamp globes make wonderful planets.

For everyone planning on Dragon Con Toni and I will be there
with ESU and NAC fleets.  At least one game will be Cinematic
for those that expressed interest.  Also, if we get enough
people I will just Ref, pre-measurement will be allowed.  All
you range-finder eye types are going to have to win on tactics.  :)

A couple of questions came up.

Is there anything official on where fighters are when screening?
I thought you had to be on the ship screened, but there was 
a large discussion about fighters up to 3 MU away screening.

Can fighters use their secondary move to get to the ships they
want to screen before salvo missiles do damage?

What is the order for fighters and PDSs versus SMs?  I would
expect:

Allocate Fighters and PDSs to salvos.

Roll damage by fighters and PDS to salvo, roll missiles that
hit.

Do damage.

Also, the Phalons have an area affect weapon.  Does every ship
in the area of affect get to fire PDSs at it wether or not they
have ADFC?

Does it go off before SMs, wiping them out, or after?

TIA
