You will gain nothing from carnage, oh members of the T'garian. Only the dust of the void and the vapors of smashed ion engines for you.

Hey there, research boarding parties and capture complete ships. Then you can take them back to a shipyard and analyze them for technology.

Supposedly, captureing planets with facilities on them that you can't build will help you research that unknown technology -- but this effect is hard to prove.

I've play numerous times in which a lowly low tech escort has destroyed up to a destroyer class ship armed with high tech weapons, but gains nothing but the praise and adoration of his race.

Hey, I'll take adoration any day. Your planets are happy and produce more. That ship has earned experience that will help it attack and defend. All good stuff.
