1.) Does STF use enemy human Captains in crew combat. If so how do I recognize one? 2.) Do Xenos have Captains? If so what type, and can they participate in crew combat? For example if a Xeno or Human enemy Captain is an Assassin then starting traits would be... | Stalker | Seeks high-value targets, when crew combat includes an enemy officer or captain then immediately |
| gains a Buff for +15% Critical, +10% Dodge, +10% Parry and Stealth Mode for 3 Turns
| | On Edge | Coiled spring ready to strike, +1 Strength, +1 Fortitude, +3 Initiative |
This is far more deadly than facing a regular Assassin in crew combat. If I never have to face an Enemy Assassin Captain. Completing the, Vat Born Monster Unlock, is less of an advantage. (I would do it for the story line anyway). Thanks |

Yes, it goes around armor soak. It is resisted by Resilience and any Energy (Rad/Plasma) Resist. How do you like your Xeno? Regular or extra crispy. |

Notes on Boarding Talents
1) In each boarding round, you can only use 2 abilities maximum.
That can be your Talents or the default options of Sabotage and Panic Crew.
2) For example. If you decided to use Parting Gift twice, you'd kill 2 targets.
This would be your 2 abilities for the boarding round.
3) You could drop two Bio-Agent Bombs and they would stack (as all ship combat buffs and debuffs stack).
This would be your 2 abilities for the boarding round.
4) Defenders get no saving throw. Boarding talents work 100% of the time. (If cool down time ready)
5) Xenos are immune to Morale damage.

Boarding Attacks? 1.) If all 4 of my crew combat team have different boarding talents. Will each one automatically trigger in the first round of combat? 2.) If my combat team has 2 snipers, each one, with the Parting Gift talent. Will the Parting Gift talent kill 2 enemy targets? 3.) Another example 2 Combat medics with Bio-Agent Bombs. Will first round combat net 2 bomb attacks? Will the effects of 2 Bio-Agent bomb attacks stack 4.) Saving throws? Do defenders have any defense against boarding attacks. Or like a curse it hits 100% of the time? | Talent | Fighter | lvl | cool | | Bio-Agent Bomb | C-Medic | 5 | 9wk | Unauthorized Access

steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1494401443It's been a few months since looking at new STF steam community content. I'm going through the videos looking for ground crew combat. Found a real gem authored by nerdcommando I've played STF, hmm.. just a little maybe. I learned allot about techniques in the first 30 minutes of this video. This guy does the math in his head at the same time he explains it too you. Highly recommended.

Bladesman Rally HOT! slot 1 & 2, AoE. Front 2 ranks take a pounding during combat. Removing debuff, and especially the (25 + Evasion) stops the paralyzing effects of Morale break. Keeps those front 2 fighting. A hearty well done. Note to us Pistoleers: 8 ranks of swordsman will get you this talent. Don't forget any pistol user can use an off hand blade if they have the skill. Time to break out the antiacids, the enemy get this talent too. Some smarty developers love stacking swordsman in slots 1 & 2. fallen Gulp! Do Xenos have access to Bladesman Rally. Doomed the end is neigh, say it ain't so. I know they don't morale break, just sleep better knowing their first 2 slots can't keep doing AoE remove debuff Love the new filters: Favorite: Getting to see what ship components you can't buy. For me this is a great learning tool. As the number and type of components continue to increase, this filter will be even more helpful. Now I can tell if a starport doesn't sell a component because of the economics etc. I don't have to stumble onto what components are really out there for sale in the quadrants. Telling me why I don't qualify to purchase a piece of equipment. Very big help to somebody like me who likes to plan out every little detail before launching a team. I keep a high level "Reference" team around just to follow changes like that. You've really saved me some time, and increased my ability to learn STF. Thanks guys |
