A rather quick reply, since it's well past midnight:
>A couple of questions came up.
I take it that you don't/didn't have copies of the Fleet Books available
to
check? Most of these questions are explicitly answered (and they're even
found in the most logical places for them to be!)...
>Is there anything official on where fighters are when screening?
Yep. FB1 p.5, Fighter "Screens", 2nd sentence.
>Can fighters use their secondary move to get to the ships they
>want to screen before salvo missiles do damage?
The rules don't specify when screening status is declared, but I'd allow
it. It is however irrelevant in this case, since screening status has
nothing to do with intercepting missiles. See FB1 p.6, "Interception of
missiles by fighters".
>What is the order for fighters and PDSs versus SMs?
FB2 p.5, "Turn Sequence" discusses this in detail
>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?
FB2 p.36, "Plasma Bolt Launchers", 4th paragraph explicitly discusses
this
>Does it go off before SMs, wiping them out, or after?
FB2 p.5, "Turn Sequence", "8) Missile, Plasma Bolt and Fighter Attacks"
explicitly specifies this
Not quite a "RTFR!" reply, but close to it :-/
