They really do. In the game that I'm playing, the Abbidon and Cue Cappa are in second and third place behind me - and their fleets - they're made up of everyone that been at war with in the Last 100 turns!
Hehehe! I love it! Two-third of my current fleet came from captured enemy vessals thanks to allegiance subverters! I've captured so many hulls that I had to mothball some of them to save maintenance. You guys are lucky that the computer doesn't know how to put them on satellites at warp points! I always do that against the computer and it is damned effective (and cheap too!).

I am playing a trader/raider type game and the convertor is needed. As I can not built this tech, I had to capture it. My entire fleet is made up of captured and traded ships. 2/3rd of th the ship of almost every race in my game are made up of ships from all the other races. When there are fleet battles, the side that gets to shoot first and has the most convertors wins.
They are not to effective because of the master computer, and they can only fire once in combat. All that said they are awsome even more agenst the AI who does not use master computers!!!

I like the chain reaction you can get when going against a Psychic race. I've captured entire fleets after a single successful crew insurrection operation
Yeah, only one shot. I entered into combat with my three ships, 2 old model cruisers and on top of the line battlecruiser (the only things defending that system which was highly inaccessable due to damaging warp point) whent into combat with one ship.
They took my battlecruiser and used it to destroy my cruisers. After combat they had two ships in a defenseless system. (not even a weapons platform or satelite) so what do they do? They leave. Hmmm.... that makes sense.
