1)Is commanding a carrier unit to attack a target the same thing as selecting individually the fighter or bomber units to attack the target? Sometimes I feel that having a carrier attack something just makes it move closer to that target, but I could be wrong.

2)Is there any way to group select all fighter units of that carrier and/or all fighter units in the gravity well?

3)I *might* have seen this question somewhere else, but I can't seem to find it now with the search (which seems to fail more often than it actually works, what gives with that!?) - Is there any way to direct fighter/bomber units to 'protect' a specific unit in the gravity well?

Thanks for any help or suggestions or comments that I didn't look at the manual hard enough *cough*   Appreciate it!
