- The total Fight skill amounts listed are the combined boarding crew Fight skill requirements to have a high chance of a casualty free boarding along with the minimal average if target ship marine capacity+1 Marines/Mercenaries are used for a boarding operation. It is possible to board ships with fewer personnel if their combined Fight skill is greater than or equal to the minimal total. Having a much higher total Fight skill than the minimum total can guarantee no casualties.
- Maximum Fight and Mechanical skill requirements for boarding with a 98% success chance are approximately 1.5x of the minimum
- With the Mechanical and Hacking skills only half the number of personnel are required if they have double the minimal skill points since it is the total of best and second best in each boarding team group that is used.
- It is always good to have more than 2 personnel with sufficient Hacking skill in case one is unlucky and dies during the fighting on the decks. There is a 1.96% chance no hacking skill is required.
