Good call Richard G! I am having the same problem w/ turn in succession--think I've ordered it correctly only to see the ships not turn. Will try the right click next time.
Know what you mean by the seemingly limited things to do. This is the classic era of Mahan, so the equation of force on force will generally decide the battle's outcome..
However, there ARE tactics that you can either employ or ignore...and if you ignore them you will probably get hammered to death, even if you have a slight force advantage
