The problem is, it's not:
"fire until all weapons are destroyed and then sit around and wait for the end of combat"
it's actually:
"Fire on each target until its weapons are destroyed and then go on to the next target. When ALL targets have their weapons destoyed, go back and DESTROY THEM ALL COMPLETELY."

That's the problem. I don't want to destoy all population and facilities on the planet, because I'm using this to force surrender.
