Default Re: A Solution For The Boarding Problem!!!

True, SJ, though it might be a neat way to "fix" (or at least, change) the way that all boarding parties are destroyed during an attack. It's debatable whether that's really broken, or just really simplistic. It makes sense to lose some for casualties and to make a skeleton crew for the captured ship, but it is a bit weird that if you do "boarding overkill" with a ship with several boarding party components, even against a small undefended ship they'll all be destroyed. It's an option, anyway.

I thought about posting something, and even typed it in, but I never pressed "Add Reply"...
