I boarded enemy marchant ship and was placed 4 against 11 - 4 of my companions and 11 of the enemy crew. The problem here is:

 

1. My crewmen didn't join, which raises a question, is all my crew supposed to come help, which by the enemy AI count it seems so, or only the ones in a passive slots?

 

2. By the time I boarded, enemy had 5/11 crew. If I am understanding this number correctly, this ship only had 5 crew, or possibly, 5 crewmen were actively engaged and the total number of the available for boarding crew is represented by the second number - 11?

 

But yes, the biggest question was, why MY crew didn't join the fight... Slackers. No ale for a week, dogs. They will drink sea water, until they start helping. Drunkards...

well, it worked last night, and I had 3 crewmen helping me... why only 3 though? What does it depend on how many crew helping me with boarding? Is it difficulty level?

 

Hello Shepard,

 

Thanks for posting, and it does appear to be an issue. We'll investigate the matter at hand.

 

Best,
