This should work. I did the same when I played AF, and actually that's where I learned about dragging the IPs to get the AI to take advantage of their weapon's stand off capability.

The only thing I can think of is you mentioned AGM 84E, which is a Slammer for ground attack. The AI will not fire these at ships. You need the AGM 84A Harpoon.


No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!
