An enemy battleship fires at Hood at long range even as seven British battleships close on it. This is treated as a target-priority mistake because the immediate battle-line threat is being ignored. Hood is directed toward her intended cruiser-hunting role while destroyers cover the advancing battleships. Within the game scenario, target selection works best when it matches a capital ship's design role and formation support.
