| An attempt to board will receive 4 full rounds of fire. The boarders can however use point defence.

Does the Ship being boarded get a 100% chance of hitting? In other words, if these were photon guns, would they automatically hit?

Every weapon hits at 100% accuracy and delivers 2x normal damage (boarding ship cannot move out the way etc so aiming at critical structures is easy).

i cannot see the logic of not allowing ships doing the boarding to not fire any weapons it has on board???

| what gets me, is why cant the boarding ship fire as well, if its a +20 chance for the ship being boarded to hit, then surely that would work in reverse. i cannot see the logic of not allowing ships doing the boarding to not fire any weapons it has on board??? |
it'd be too open to abuse - both sides hitting each other with double damage, 100% hit rate...you'd never bother with normal combat and attack this way instead.

Yes.
