It cannot acquire targets while moving - You first attack-move to get the interceptors out, then use move commands on the carrier, and the interceptors will still stay out (unless you target something specifically and that target dies, or hit stop) and attack. Of course, you can't do concentrated fire, but you can run & shoot. > and it has an insanely >high interceptor deploy time - so you wouldn't be able to do anything like >the vulture run and shoot. If you are just trying to run away then it >would be fine - but it seems useless for micromanaging a battle It seems useless because you suck at Carriers. But BC Vs.
