Ship capture is a good way to get techs, but the only real ways to defend (that I know of) is Security stations, self destruct and knocking you out of the air before you get close enough. The Gaim are insane boarders!

The graphics will take some time (as I will be driving back to PA this weekend to drop some stuff off at home), but can be easily updated and added in without much impact on the game in progress.
