Shield Generators

I agree that boarding tech is too hard to come by. I've been toying with the idea of moving it up one level in military science tech area so it's available at once in a medium tech start game.

I also agree that the selfdestruct device is to powerful. The description says it destroys the ship by overloading the weapons. So logically I thought, then destroy the engines and it won't work. So I researched engine busting weapons and proceeded to test my theory. No go. The self destruct device works even if all the engines are destroyed which makes no sense imo considering the description of it. I wonder if it's possible to create a weapon that only targets selfdestruct devices?
