If your ships don't already have it you might try giving them some simple weapon like a DUC I so that the computer sends them into shoot and then when the enemy is ready to be boarded your ships are right there to do it while the DUC's won't be strong enough to destroy the ship even if they do hit.
Not sure if the computer considers Shield Depleters a weapon to be used on ships if its the only one and the enemy has no weapons or something.
*BREAK* That is what I was going to say... but I just tried all that on the simulator and none of it worked.
I don't know what is going on. I have never used boarding myself in strategic... maybe it doesn't work?
Anyone know?
ok... my suggestion which was made after you fixed it yourself works for you but not for me... weird.
