seeking weapons and HETs

Post by Kor »

Quick question regarding seeking weapons and HETS (in case you didn't read the subject), I understand that a seeking weapon must HET if doing so would allow it to impact with it's target, but does this mean that it must HET for it's first move if it's target has gotten behind it. Meaning, in SFB, a drone or plas torp must move directly forward after launch, but in FC, must they simply HET to hit their targets after launch?
...Of course you should come. The splendor of fighting and killing. A bloodbath in the cause of vengeance. Who wouldn't want to come?

If using an HET will allow a seeking weapon to hit its target, the weapon must use the HET, even on the first move.

Note that, unlike SFB, the HET does not take the place the move, but is done with the move, and is not optional.
