I think the of giving missles simulated evasion is easily accomlished by shortening the range of PD. Just say that only in the Last two sectors before hitting a target are the missles on a "direct" path. Before that they spiral, zag and loop around making them impossible to hit.

To me there is no realism if a barage of 20 missles are launch and none get through. If PD reaches one square, two at max, then point of defense is really a local thing. No more PD ships covering your entire fleet.

Which brings up another gripe I have been harboring, which pertains largely to missle attacks, but to all attacks as well using beams.

I would like the options to give my ships a spread or covering fire order...where they would divide up their shots or missles between as many targets as their trackers allow. At present, trackers don't really add much to strategic combat, unless your volley destroys a ship. After being able to track 2 ships, three if you are facing an inferior opponent, they become a bit worthless. With this order you could tell a missle ship or WP to launch its missles at multiple targets.

Don't you hate seeing your WPs launching 30 missles at one ship...or seeing the AI do it. Would be a good thing to have in conjunction with high damage weapons: null-space, PPB (if your opponent doesn't have phased shields), psychic sigularity thing, engine damaging.

Think about it...a lvl 5 tracking device and five null-space cannons. With luck you could reduce five ships to one movement in one turn.
