Reference notes[]
- ↑ The enemy ship: 80% chance for escape attempt at 20-40% hull and/or 80% chance for surrender offer at 30-40% hull. (the enemy won't try to run away if the surrender was offered first; sometimes it is required to decrease the hull below the threshold or even down to 1 in order to trigger the surrender offer)
