Obviously we are talking about simultaneous combat, but is this true?

It is true at least for ships that have only boarding parties and no other weapons. At least is was in my game. They just kind of mill about and not attack. I have seen boarding ships that attacked and got blown up by SDD though. It may have been a boarding ship that had a standard weapon as well as BP that got it into range and the Boarding parties went ahead and tried to board. I will need to test that some more.
