It was alot of fun. I appreciate you organizing everything. After
reading
the rules carefully (and hassling Oerjan) here's my take.
1. Move fighters up to 24"
2. Launch Ordnance
3. Move ships
4. Determine targets for ordnance
5. Fighter secondary moves, if within 3" of a ship at the end of this
phase may declare screening, if within 6" may declare attacks.
6. Dogfights
7. Allocate screening fighters to ordnance.
8. Fighters fire on ordnance, a 5-6 destroys one missile, a 6 reduces
a PBL by one. Records hits on SMs.
9. Allocate PDS fire.
10. Fire PDSs.
11. Do damage from PBLs, 1d6 per factor remaining, this destroys
fighters
and SMs in area.
12. Roll for number of SMs on target, reduce by number destroyed in 8
and 10.
13. do damage from Missiles.
I hope you don't mind, I've CC'd this to gzg-l so they can tear it
apart. :)
