Torpedo question

for the beam batteries. So far so good, @:) but the Fed player wondered, (and

use 1 FC for @:) both tubes?

Yes. One fire control is required to fire any number of torpedoes at one
target in a turn. It's not one FC per torpedo tube. The rules don't go out of
their way to make this explicit, but it is there if your read carefully.

Where's that durned FAQ?

If targeting the same ship with one firecon, yes.
