Yup, BOOOOOM

if I attack his fleet and he has got cloaked ships and none cloaked ships, will his cloaked ships also take part in the battle?
Yup again, its a classic sucker move. Never managed to pull it off on PBW myself, but not from lack of trying.

Also, if your ship is cloaked and you make it to attack an enemyship which does not see you, there is no combat.

You also want to add scattering armor into your ships. Their 15% defence bonus is cumulative with stealth armor (together they add 30% to your defence).
