AAR:
My second live, non-solo game took place last night.  I took two Sabers
CL and two Qaws missile cruisers. My opponent brought on two Maria von Burgund
BB's, an Ehrenhold FF and a Waldburg DD. We started on opposing courses at
120MU (this was on the big table at Campaign Headquarters).

Ron's ships chugged forward, headed down the center of the table. I sent my
two Qaws ships to the left, my two Sabers to the right, using pushed while
maintaining my original facing. After about four turns, he turned to starboard
to intercept my missile ships. His initial shots at extreme beam range did
considerable damage to one Qaws, but her fire controls and missiles remained
on line.
  Next turn, I launched all 6 SMRs from the damaged missile cruiser--my
other one wasn't close enough--and all six salvos landed on one von
Burgund. Excellent point defense shooting combined with inferior seeker heads
meant that the wave of missiles did less damage than I expected, but it still
took the battleship through three thresholds and knocked out almost all
weapons, only one Beam 3 and a fire control remaining active. He realized that
that Qaws had shot its bolt and concentrated what fire he could muster on the
other one, again doing considerable damage. My Sabers, meanwhile, traded shots
with the NSL escorts, savaging the Ehrenhold at the cost of losing about half
their armor. My second Qaws was now in range, and launched all its SMR's at
the second, undamaged NSL battleship. The enemy point defenses were helpless
and the ship was obliterated, taking 81 points of damage on 10 armor and 36
hull. The surviving von Burgund attempted to avenge the loss, but her single
Beam-3 was unable to get a clean hit on her target.  The Sabers,
meanwhile, had passed the enemy formation and were thrusting back to get into
position for a stern rake, but were not quite in range. The NSL formation
swung around to face the Sabers. The IF missile cruisers, now effectively
harmless with their missile racks empty, broke contact. Beam fire stripped off
the rest of the armor from one Islamic CL, and return fire further weakened
the NSL battleship. The NSL commodore, recognizing the gravity of the
situation, ordered the Waldburg to break off and FTL out. As the Islamic
cruisers closed to board the stricken battleship, the NSL crews took to their
lifeboats and the Ehrenhold and Maria von Burgund scuttled.
