I read somewhere that you should waypoint to the traders next spot, then to the trader. Even if i do this, if the trader is faster than me, he will get away.

When in the turn order does the trader moved compared to me? And how do i catch a trader when my ships are slower?

The MT is just another fleet when it comes to intercepting it. It's better to have it rushing towards your ships than away, so you should always try to catch him from a point ahead of its route.

The MT, unlike other fleets, cannot be "shadowed", though, so if you have one fleet at its same coordinates and set your ships to "follow" him, they'll remain stationary.



So many Stars, so few Missiles!

In space no one can hear you scheme! Deal
