Here's one with an SE4 theme:
A single, low-tech Terran ship is ambushed by a Phong Destroyer. The scoutship loses its engines and supply bays to the piercing Shard Cannons, but miraculously emerges victorious in the combat (run strategically).
How is this possible?
If the destroyer was already severly damaged when the Terran ship lost its supplies, and the Terran ship was carrying fighters/drones/sats that it launched before it lost its supplies, those could concieveably have taken down the destroyer.

Edit: right, missles too - any delayed method of damaging a target could work.
