Can't Kamikaze!

[dogscoff]

I am having some trouble with my latest ship design:
A destroyer with
max engines
bridge etc
2x PDC
Fill up the rest with organic armour

I'm using strategic combat so I set the combat strategy to "Kamikaze" and tried it in the combat simulator.
This design beats just about anything else on the map. (it's early in the game) However, some ships with the propulsion racial trait (like me) manage to keep out of range, so I added a tractor beam to bring them in.

My ship now refuses to ram anything. It just lies up to it and fires the tractor beam at them.
I've tried everything I can think of in the strategy screens but nothing works. Why won't my ship ram anything any more?
