			::The values aren't ''precisely'' present in the game and unused. There's no data specific to a Lobbie Hunter, after all, just the data for Hunter rank numbers and the data for Lobbie rank -> unit conversion, which are both used data - just not ever used together.

	These columns were very confusing to me at first, as I thought (due to their position and titles) that they were some measure of the amount of damage you had to inflict to either down or kill the sub. I did not figure it out until I went to [[UFOs]] and saw the different column names. I think the column names should be changed here, or have a clarifying comment below the table. --[[User:Jewcifer\|Jewcifer]] 15:40, 16 March 2012 (EDT)		These columns were very confusing to me at first, as I thought (due to their position and titles) that they were some measure of the amount of damage you had to inflict to either down or kill the sub.

			== Impossible crews ==

			While editing the crew rank breakdowns for the various alien submarines, something occurred to me:

			Lobster Men [[Alien_Appearance_Ratios_(TFTD)\|don't perform]] Alien Resource Raid missions, and Mixed Crew don't perform any missions other than Alien Surface Attacks and Floating Base Attack. This means that a Lobster-Man-crewed Hunter is impossible, and ditto for Mixed-crew Heavy Cruisers, Hunters, and Fleet Supply Cruisers, unless you hack the game.

			Should this be noted on the pages? Should we remove those races' tables from the pages entirely? Not really sure what to do, so I figured I'd ask. [[User:Magic9mushroom\|Magic9mushroom]] ([[User talk:Magic9mushroom\|talk]]) 10:43, 30 August 2019 (CEST)
