Can any of you insiders or beta testers give us a feel for the expected release of the new patch?

I've read very recently that boarding ships refuse to even attempt an attack when the enemy has SDDs...

They just kind of mill about and not attack. I have seen boarding ships that attacked and got blown up by SDD though. It may have been a boarding ship that had a standard weapon as well as BP that got it into range and the Boarding parties went ahead and tried to board. I will need to test that some more.

Create small, (relatively) cheap boarding ships, and have them try to board the enemy's big, expensive ships with SSDs. The SSD will go off, and the enemy will lose a Battleship or so, and you'll lose a Destroyer. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
