abstract	There are two basic strategies in your typical fleet battle when it comes to assigning targeting priorities and which one you use depends on your overall objectives for the battle. There is also a third strategy that will be used only in particular cases. 1.Head shots – Conventional video game wisdom tells us to go right for the head which is, in this case, represented by the enemy flagship and other manned ships. Once the enemy flagship has taken enough damage the opposing fleet will retreat to recharge, repair, and resupply. After all, Admirals are very protective of their own skins and a fleet is useless without a commander. This is useful if you are looking to force the enemy to retreat. It is a strategy that will win the day and is useful as a delaying tactic but it will not win wars. 2.Asset targeting – Headshots usually produce little more than a draw where some ammo is wasted and the flagships need only be repaired. Asset targeting is based on the fact that it is easier to repair existing ships than to purchase new ones. Therefore, this tactic is designed to actually destroy opposing ships. Instead of forcing a retreat by targeting the PC-crewed ships you are targeting empty and often less valuable ships. Because there is less danger to the opposing admirals the chances of them retreating is much less and the opposing fleet will take much more damage. They may still force your fleet to retreat by aiming for the head but if you killed three fighter squadrons and two escort ships and suffered a moderately damaged flagship then you are the one winning the war. 3.Strategic Targeting – This is more of a sub-category of asset targeting. In this case you target a particular ship or type of ship for a strategic purpose. If the enemy does not control a fighter-producing shipyard then you may want to target their fighters specifically. It may not win you the battle but it advances your position in the war.
