2 questions for our keen minds.

If a ship is towing a second ship. And if I cloak intercept the ship being towed. If I take damage, will I fight Ship A, or will if its are set to move away, combat not start?

Second

If I send a single swift heart to a planet that has more then 2 poppers set to trg. Will it trigger both or only 1 that is needed to destory it?

No keen mind here and no direct experience on question 1 however:

I think you are referring to 'Cloak Intercept' the campaign feature. As the documentation reads you would attack your target (presumably the ship being towed)
and if you take 0 damage you would stay where the battle happened and be cloaked. Ship A probably makes it to its original destination missing its passenger. (Dude, where's my ship?)

For question 2, only one ship set to TRG will go off.

I'm thinking normal cloak & intercept. As you would see in a standard game.

According to the documentation, you would then fight Ship A afterwards based on combat order.

@Warhound: If you don't mean Campaign "Cloak AND Intercept" as EJ mentioned... do you mean a cloak-device-equipped ship doing an Intercept mission... it has been renamed "Priority Intercept Attack": http://help.planets.nu/cloak-intercept

And all it changes is the order ships fight, damage isn't a factor.

Damage is a factor for Campaign "Recloak Intercept" however; http://help.planets.nu/recloak-intercept
