AHH YESS. I don't worry much about the hands-off approach to the battles... after all, it's just a series of dice rolls. But oh, my kingdom for a 'retreat' button...

Also, I was always pissed that a fleet of small ships always loses to a larger ship of equal stats. As soon as one small ship gets popped, your fleet loses a piece of its attack ability. A large ship can have 1 hp remaining but still retain full attack rolls. Small ships really need some kind of 'manouevre' defensive modifier.
