The Captain is your Most Important Crew Member for Space Crew

The Captain is your Most Important Crew Member

In Space Crew the single most important member of your crew is your captain. The captain is responsible for the spaceship piloting and evasion from enemy fire, setting waypoints and choosing the navigating approach between offensive and defensive that impacts on battles. Without your captain piloting your ship it will not move or dodge making it an easy target for the enemy. If your captain has to go to the medical for any reason it is essential that someone, even if it is a rookie is in the captains chair guiding the ship until they return.

Your captains skills are based around piloting and whenever you engage in combat with the enemy their defensive stance will boost your ships evasion by 10%, which is why it should by your default stance. You can prevent a lot of damage to your ship if you select your objective, speed up time and then then jump into defensive stance the moment time slows.
