Hypothetical scenario:

Ship 1 flies into a star cluster (suicide, basically) while ship 2 is set to intercept ship 1. Does the intercepting ship follow? Or is ship 1 immediately destroyed and there is no target for ship 2 to intercept and it doesn't move?

According to host order ship 1 is destroyed immediately.

I STRONGLY DISAGREE.
Ship 1 flies into the star cluster.
Ship 2 (note it ONLY occurs with Robot ships) is set to intercept.
Ship 1 hyperjumps to complete safety
Ship 2 follows into the starcluster and is killed horribly awarding 27 PBP to the player in the game who is under attack by the most other players in the game.

I'm sure its written up somewhere on Donovans.
