It's cryptic math. Perfection will not guarantee success, no matter how close to 100% success you might have. I've had a few with 100% success rating and 80% crit. chance and still failed.

Just for snicks, I slotted a VR project and assigned my last ship - a captain's gig with virtually no points - and only that ship - to it.
Must have lucked out because I completed the project successfully. Not something I'd want to count on, but if you only have one ship left, why not go for it?

I have an opinion. And I think cryptic will Nerf it because it's going to get abused:
Use a single shuttle or gig to roll the admirality projects you don't care about or are ridiculous, in order to get a better project immediately. Worst case, you wait 5 minutes for the shuttle to cool down then slot the big cheese project.
This is ofc assuming you have a few shuttles, but they are cheap. Even a 30min cd isn't bad. Who needs skip tokens?

Never have seen a point to the skip tokens - put a POC ship on a mission to get the next one. If I fail, no prob - but I'm failing missions that I shouldn't so the numbers balance out in the end.
