Re: Best Defense against ship capture?
At one point a SelfDestruct device would effectively prevent capture (If it was not destroyed) A boarding action would not even be tried on a ship so equipped. This has been changes. The current version SEIV 1.91 DOES allow boarding in stategic mode when the target has a SD Device. Both ships will be destroyed in this case.
A master computer has no effect on boarding parties. In fact they make a ship easier to capture as there are no inate defenses from the crew quarters.
Shields, while they exist, will prevent boarding. Security stations will also work wonders against a determined foe. One SS lvl5 will stop more than 2 lvl5 BPs. See the FAQ for exact numbers.
