Would you not fire your first missile to either take the queen or blow up one of their missiles? They would just retaliate with their other missile in the same fashion ...

How exactly does it move? Does it just "shoot a target" randomly?
Finally, does it still capture pieces in a 3x3 area when landing on an empty square, or must a capture directly on that square be involved?
