Rules question: torpedoes

[bede19025]

My light cruiser plots a torpedo fire at the beginning of the cruiser fire phase. In that same fire phase it is destroyed by gunnery.

When the torpedo resolution segment comes around, do the light cruiser's torpedoes get resolved or does it's destruction in the cruiser gunnery phase mean they don't go off?

Thanks.

We have always played that you fired them and they are running to the target, therefore we resolve them even if the ship is destroyed. Likewise, if the target goes down by gun fire, the torp is wasted.

Yep. Once a torpedo is plotted, its in the water and will be resolved, regardless of what happens to the ship that fired it.
