I haven't posted in a while.

I am going to be relocating later this year. I'll only have an iPad2 and old laptop (2004) available to me for 4-6 months. So, I installed some old games on it which I would like to give spin ... Harpoon 3, Harpoon Classic, and RSR.

I am currently reading the RSR manual and the book. In the past, I've played SC/DW. In RSR, your crew performs TMA for you and a solution is built. From playing SC/DW, I know that you need about three legs at relatively slow speed (allowing the array to straighten out) to get a good solution against a constant target at distance. (in close you can triangulate between hull and towed sonar arrays)

My question: Is this relevant to RSR? Will changing course and running three legs speed my TMA? Also, in combat will changing course and speed slow my opponent's TMA?

Thanks (and it is nice to be back!)
