It depends on how low your CSCR AS/AF values are in the source materials you are using. I usually don't experience much of a problem unless the ships only have...
... Thanks for your help Tyrel. No, I just plan on using the CSCR. I really like how it works. I thought about using the similar ground combat rules but I...
