ECM on Picket Ships Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

O.k. we all know that ECM jams the enemy Targeting.

But I have one important Question, maybe one of you could answer it:

Is it necessary for the targetted Ship to have ECM or is it enough if my Picket Ships possess ECM capabilities.

Lets assume for example I have a Carrier Group with one Carrier (without ECM) surrounded by several Picket Ships with ECM-Capabilities
The enemy targets my Carrier, will his targetting be jammed by my Picket Ships or not?

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Actually ECM improves your targeting and increases your visual range. Its ECCM that reduces the enemy's. Right?

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

ECM: Electronic Countermeasures
ECCM:Electronoic Counter-Countermeasures

ECM jams the targeting, ECCM counters and bypasses the ECM.

Full PM-box? Change here!

It would be nice to know, but like many (way to many if you ask me) other things in this game you will just have to guess =(

If autobuilding can be used as a measure, then no. I believe that having ECM on your picket ships works for the whole fleet.

IMO: me thinks, that the tech tree will tell us ...I mean if they have a device like in moo2 that has wide area effect ecm..then the pickets ships would just be for themselves..?

I think the art of task force design is a bery cool NEW part of the moo trilogy.
