I don't like that words playing.
I don't ask to explain me boarding rules, that I know pretty well.
I ask to write down boarding action of ONE sm strike cruiser against ONE 8/2 cruiser.
But what I get? Some speculation about how cool to board crippled enemy ship with 2 fresh cruiser?
One strike against one 8/2 cruser!
My BV is 6 enemy is 10
So he takes+1 for outnumbering
I take +2 for being sm
It's equal of I have +1 and my opponetn have no bonuses.
As I said before.
Is it good and fluffy? No. Because SM ARE very strong at close quater battles. And according to background their chance to defeat human crew of an ordinary vessel is much more than we have in BFG.
And when we fights against more aggressive enemy, such orks or chaos, our chases to win is dropped to ground. Against any fluff again!

I wonder why You don't tell me how cool to board firestorm with fully loaded BB. It must be so AWESOM =\
