It seems obvious, unless you _want_ to get multiple shots out of it... <

I initially took it to mean one icon = one shot, but wondered about 
that when this discussion began. From an operational POV, I have to 
wonder why the UNSC would put weapons like that on ships like the Sol 
class, types which are intended for extended cruises. I can see them 
using such weapons in ships which, say, cruise around Core World space, 
but on their long-range stuff? Hope they have really, really good 
supply lines...

All of which makes me think that maybe an AMT _isn't_ a one-shot 
weapon, in which case it is seriously mean, and probably underpriced.
