Note that this can be particularly problematic with all units that have directed weapons, such as the [[en:games:star_trek_armada_1:scout]] type ships or most of the [[en:games:star_trek_armada_1:destroyer]] type ships. While circling their target, their weapons face away from the target, making only the Borg's [[en:games:star_trek_armada_1:Interceptor]] an effective destroyer in multi-player. It is therefore recommended to **not** use it.
