I don't get it. Siege Launchers take more PG, but they fire slower... Both can fit torps and cruise...
I see that Siege Launchers have a higher capacity - is that the only advantage?
Let me know if I'm missing something here!

You are missing something!!
Cruise launchers only fire cruise missiles. Siege launchers only fire Torpedoes.
Torpedoes move slower, have less range, do more damage. Cruise missiles are the opposite.

Are you sure?
The info database on the website here indicates otherwise...

Yeah.
That got me too.
But that being said, which is better?
Cruise - Lower damage at longer range
or
Siege - Higher damage at shorter range
Also by chance, does the torpedo do splash damage to say any vessels close to your target?

Torpedoes do not get any bonuses to their explosion radius from the Guided Missile Precision skill, so if you are facing anything smaller than a Battleship, they will do significantly less damage then Cruise Missiles.
Torpedoes also do not do splash damage to surrounding vessels, and have not done for a very long time, due to exploit potential in Empire wars.
