Default Re: Self-Destruct is Irrational Component

quote:
If someone Boards a ship with self-destruct (SD), then the SD destroys both ships. Even if the boardee is an escort and the boarder is a mother ship!

quote:
I think the self-destruct works well. After all, for that escort to take out your supper-dreadnaught it would first have to wipe out all of the dreadnaught's sheilds. Secondly, with out the self-destruct, that little escort would let the other player steal your nice, shiny, new super-dreadnaught and go prancing over to your homeworld.

Spoo, he's complaining that the Escort's SDD is killing the Baseship, when the Baseship tries to capture.
IE, the basehip drops its shields to send troops over, and the escort self-destructs.
