Default That really @#$$%^

During a PBW game, an Partner and I were jointly defending a warp point against a common enemy.

The enemy came through the Warp Point and we were... IN THE CORNERS!!!!! Instead of being on top of him, in the center, and getting first shot, we were picked off seperately!!! Even our SATs were in the corner.

Oh well, It's Miller time.

I just got one a few days ago also.
Had a stack of 100 sats guarding the only warp entrance to my main system. They didn't fire one shot when the enemy came through. Not one!
The entire fleet got through and that's pretty much the game for me.

If a stack of sats is hit by a reload disruptor, are all the weapons in the stack disabled?

That is ok, an ally for a long time turned on me and attacked. He was supported by another one time ally. They have managed to wipe out my entire fleet and most of my worlds in only a couple of turns. Betrayal is so painful... [fake crying] Booo hooo [/fake crying] As you said, its Miller time.

Lupusman, did you remember to include a detection satellite to the stack? A cloaked fleet will sail through like you described. Also if you add cloaking to a stack of sats ( and activate it) combat will not occur.
