NPC Crew Actions
Source High Seas pg. 36
If the ships have larger crews, you can easily end up with allied NPC crew members attacking unimportant enemy crew members. To keep the game moving quickly, avoid playing out every single attack roll for these characters. Instead, play these NPC clashes narratively. Thin the numbers as the fight goes on, with the minor characters being defeated or knocked overboard.
If you’re using siege weapons, you can also put NPCs to work Aiming and Loading them. You can place all of the crew who are helping with siege weapons together in initiative so all the maintenance of the siege engines happens at once.
