Pfft!  I wouldn't consider recall as a viable strategy for evading yamato 
unless you had OverWind micro skills.

Besides - such a test would be easy to setup.

Interceptors will not engage if a carrier is given a flee command.

And BCs are stronger than Carriers - but the carrier itself has to be 
targets.  If the BC fucks around and shoots the interceptors while the other 
player churns out more of them then he is hosed.   . . . Um . . IIRC.

It would be easy to setup a test.

So someone less lazy than me go do it
