1.7.0.6 - ships won't fire during battle?

[Scout 50]

I have been playing DW, and yesterday installed the two expansions. Now while playing Legends, my military ships won't shoot at enemies when in combat. I can issue orders to attack, and they move as if they are in combat. But won't actually fire any weapons at the enemy. I am using the standard ship designs provided (starting destroyers with Maxos Blasters). I have tried a whole bunch of different games, and rebooted.

Is this a bug, or am I missing some new setting for fleets? If it is a bug, suggestions on resolving it?

Thanks. Great game.

I had what sounds like the exact same problem in RotS. I discovered accidentally that dropping from 4x speed to 2x solved it. I assumed it was because my computer is on the low end of the specs and just couldn't handle the 4x speed with all that stuff on the screen. Combat seemed to work if I didn't watch, but what fun is that?
