I start with rank 5 chain on their masts. Edit: I also always draw them back - always attacking from behind their formation so that they have to slow down, turn, come to me, slow down again, if I have to port, turn off, reposition at medium speed. By the time they are back in formation, I've repaired and relaunched from Port Royal (lag permitting.) I'm moderately good at "tagging" them from 3 compass widths, which sometimes draws them back as I reposition. (Obviously, it should all the time, but just doesn't, for no reason at all.)
