Okay, I know This has been discussed over and over, but how do you perform a crew quality check again? It's been a year and I forget.....

oh okay, i thought you had to roll X amount of dice based on your crew quality and beat whatever is required
Basically when you are called to make a crew quality check (when performing a special action or damage control for example), you roll 1D6 and add the ships Crew Quality[1] and any relevent fleet bonuses (e.g. Drazi Agression, Vree Telepathy and ISA Rangers).
[1] In most pick-up or one off games Crew Quality is just assumed to be 4. However in campaign games this can differ between 2 and 6.

Good this topic is already opened 
One more question about CQC :
The rule states that a "6" is always a success on a CQC (obviously unless it's an opposed CQC).
BUT is a "1" an automatic failure ?
(Easy exemple : ISA elite rangers inside a WS wanting to perform damage control. They succeded in "All hands to deck" so now it's time to attempt repairing all the crits :
CQ : 6
Rangers : +1
Self repairing : +1
All hands to deck : +1
--> 9 without throwing.
If you HAVE to throw (because 1 is failure) you might not repair everything ;-)
If you don't have to it's an automatic "I repair all non-vital crits from previous turns"

Doesn't answer the quesition, but thought I'd point this out. You can't get a +1 for Rangers on top of CQ6. CQ6 is the maximum CQ of a ship, and Rangers gives a +1 to crew quality, so it is capped at 6. The Rangers bonus just means your ships start at a higher CQ than anyone else's.
Ok for the rangers bonus, so it becomes :
CQ : 6
Self repairing : +1
All hands to deck : +1
--> 8 without throwing.
At least one on a D6 so 9 is the minimum score, and nothing states than 1 is a failure. (book 1 about CQC).
So still wondering how it works (or is supposed to work)

Nothing I could find in the rules says a 1 is a failure.
Could be wrong though.
