Here's a quick question - do Pulse Torps require a separate FireCon *per
tube*, or do they simply require a dedicated FireCon *per target*? The rules
imply the latter but don't state so in unambiguous terms. IOW, if I toss three
tubes worth of PTs at a single target, do I need to allocate three FireCons or
only one? TIA!

1 firecon per target, unlimited number of tubes.

IMO they are pretty clear: "...engaging A target with Torpedoes [note: plural
form] requires the use of ONE [my emphasis] Fire Control system, which may NOT
also be used to direct Beam Batteries that turn..."

So multiple torpedoes against one target require one dedicated FC.
