If your targets have 100% to miss bonus - ECM bonus, stealth armour bonus, scattering armour bonus and fire incinerator bonus stacked up, you will be back to the zero ground.

Ok, but if my opponent has 0% miss bonus and I have a 100% hit bonus is it a guaranteed hit or is it a 100% bonus (ie I normally have a 30% chance to hit, a 100% bonus would give me another 30% for a 60% to hit).

The bonuses are additive.

So, 30% and 100% = 30% + 100% = 130% (bounded to 99%)

Also, all to-hit chances are bounded by 1% and 99%.

No matter how easy it is to hit something, there is always a 1% chance that you'll miss.
My brother's very first shot in combat (after 150 turns of buildup) was his Crystalline tech battleship missing a planet!

The only way to get 100% to hit is with a religious talisman, and that ignores all bonues, guaranteeing 100% in every case.
