1. When you test a ship in a simulation, what is the crew level of your ship? Regular? Whatever the actual crew level of your ship is in the real game?

2. This might have already been explained, but what exactly triggers the objective engagements? Is there a certain total FP threshold? Ship count? Because at the moment the battles I'm getting in to seem too large for a simple engagement.

I'm not sure on the first one, but for the second objective engagements occur when the number of ships in both fleets is at least 7, I think.

The actual crew level. You can check this on the tactical map - there's an icon for each ship on the top left.

I get strategic choices with my fleet consisting of five units (1x Onslaught, 1x Venture, 3x fighter wing). Might be FP or ship size based as well.

Nope, it counts ships in total. So it counts both your ships and the enemy.

I never thought of that. Thanks.

I just played an engagement where the enemy had:
3x Buffalo MKII
2x Hound
3x Talon Wing

I had:
1x Vigilance
1x Lasher
2x Hound
1x Condor
4x Talon Wing
1x Broadsword Wing

Seemed too big for a "small" engagement.

It may also take into account total OP.  I suspect this is a factor in autocalc battles.  In the Uomoz Corvus mod, Scourge fleets wipe out even the largest of human fleets, and I think it's because the Scourge ships have 999+ OP to "lock" alien weapons.
