Default Re: Capture Ships

hmmmm....this is worth a try, if you are using a 'fleet' the modify the orders so that ALL ships break formation, that way they will follow their own orders instead of the fleet firing orders...might work...(make sure you are using the 'capture enemy ship' strategy..)

I used to have some success with arming ships with trac beams and boarding parties/shield depleters....(components almost 'seem' to have to be in a certain order...try the weapons, then the trac beams, then the boarding component in the ship, maybe that matters for 'what action follows what'.)

Or maybe I am thinking way too hard again....(not the first time.... )
