Point Defense Cannons
If I have several PDC's on a ship, do I need Multi-Plex Tracking to target more than one fighter or seeker, or do the PDC's target multiple targets regardless?

Re: Point Defense Cannons
No multiplex needed. They don't count against the limit, at least when firing automatically.

Re: Point Defense Cannons
They will fire at the first target that enters their range and shoot until its dead. If there are any mounts left, then they will shoot at the next target that come into range. If you have unfired PD cannons the check for targets in range will occur after you move that ship or after an enemy move, so you can trigger your PD mounts to fire on a pack of missiles by purposefully moving into range of the missiles.

Re: Point Defense Cannons
And on the topic of PDC's, does anyone know why the hit damage value went from 95 to 65? ...were they that unbalanced? I'm not really sure when they did, but I can distinctly remember PDC V's having 95 damage...
