About the Core-Shooter Formation
The Core-Shooter Formation takes advantage of the fact that most players will place their most critical formation assets aligned along the center file, including Flagships and Glass Cannons. This formation concentrates firepower along that center file with the intent of coring the opposing formation like an apple. This is why it's called the Core-Shooter.
This is a slight variation of the Head and Shoulders Formation as it only adds the Tail Gunner position. It is a fundamental rule with most players to place their flagships in the Glasshouse and try to make them behave as Glass Cannons. These players generally rely on Tanks to protect the center file.
