Oh yeah, I know they all get consumed. It's just that 1 Boarding Party I takes over an LC, but fails for a battleship because it has more crew quarters.
So you figure a couple of Boarding Party II or III's can take over anything.
Now consider the opponent (human only, natch.) is expecting this, and adds boarding partys and security stations of their own. Your boarding ship could end up boarded first
With the SDD, this is all moot. But I'm really thinking of a mod where boarding is always happening.
This might be an issue for Puke's Furball Pinball game on PBW. Or not with the SDD available. I dunno. Frankly, I'd rather my big bad dreadnought not self destruct, but rather capture the other ship.
