I think you halve every volley your ship fires as it fires them.

So if your Tau cruiser has two single lances and it fires each at a separate target, each volley is 1/2=0.5 rounds 1 shot. But if it combines them into a single target it gets 2/2 = 1 shot total.

Halve before splitting fire.

There is no splitting happening in this example, but rather combining of seperate hardpoints. I'm honestly not sure if I was clear or not, very confused.

And I second the question, in which order do things happen in the end phase? Is there a set order? I've always just been doing it top to bottom, left to right on the cheat sheet that came with the box (which makes it damage control then blast marker removal then teleport attacks then boarding actions). Is that right?

No, boarding actions and teleport attacks are conducted before damage control and blast marker removal.

Thanks :) Where does it say that? (So I can look it up if I forget the order again).
