So the SDD actually has a purpose. Interesting, and far cheaper than sticking two or three secutity stations on a ship.

I also think just trying to board will cause the destruct to go off. That means you can have a (Say CL) with lots of shield depleters and one BP Tech1. It will cause a BaseShip to blow.

Unless, of course, the BaseShip decides to blow your LC first . After all, these are normally designed to do a lot of blowing up - and from a bigger distance than boarding works.

No. You have to -win- for the SD to go off. Of course most ships have so little boarding defense you win all the time anyway.
