The organic armour is just there to fill up space really. I had 30kt of space to fill up, so it went to the armour plate.

May I suggest a PDC and armorIII instead. (Just my 2 cents).

Assume you have a 1kg squirrel
E=mc^2
E=1kg(3x10^8m/s)^2=9x10^16J
which, if I'm not mistaken, is equivilent to roughly a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
Fear the squirrel.

Question if your ship only has a MC can a boarding party take over your ship???

Yes.

Does that make sense???

Why not? The MC is only supposed to stop your ship from being captured by allegiance subverters not boarding parties.

Must be my imagination that has blinded me to that fact. I always assumed that the MC controlled ship would just be computers and components fully automated. I still do not see how a boarding party of space marines can just take over a ship. But thank you for letting me know. I have a few adjustments / upgrades to make to my ship classes.
