What is "combat bonus"?

#1 Post by jinlanid »

If an asteroid hull is fighting in asteroid, it get combat bonus right? Is that extra damage? If yes, how much?
Is that "good pilot+"?

No damage bonus, only stealth bonus (also a combat bonus).

To elaborate, high enough stealth is handy in combat, because you might not be targeted during first combat bout each turn (assuming that the enemy's detection is low enough).
