When I am fighting the Drengin, they usually have massed fleets of small ships. 

When my ships attack them, they go through each fleet and I have to watch the battle sequence (not the cinematic version) in the main galactic window. 

As there are hundreds of Drengin ships (or pirates when they are defeated), this takes a huge amount of time. 

I have gone through all the options on the main menu to skip turns, or viewing, but I'm still faced with having to watch tedious conflicts on the main galactic screen, over and over again. 

Is there anyway to bypass this ?

Thanks
