One of the features removed from Stars! with V2.5 was battle orders for each ship type within a fleet, instead we have fleet battle plans.

One thing I'd like to see in a clone, is the re-insertion of the sub-fleet battle plan idea. Perhaps having fleet Groups which are controlled exactly like fleets in terms of movement,fuel sharing etc, but with each fleet having its own battle plan. This would allow for a Group plan that could cover things like splitting(eg a drop-drop with (eg)options:
split fleets: here, the group would be split and each fleet would follow the target fleet that best matches its battle orders
follow fleet X orders: the group doesn't split, and follows the target fleet that best matches the battle orders of fleet X
