What I was thinking was larger ships doing the shield depleteting and the smaller destroyers just carrying boarding partys for the capturing.
Your not going to efficently capture his ships this way, but if you out produce and out tech him (if I'm reading your posts right) then do you even want to capture his ships?
Whatever it's just a variation on the same theme - Grind him down with shear numbers. As for which one would work best, that depends on the other guys reaction, ship design, etc.
Or just a few stellar manip ships to try and even the odds. Your heavily armoured ships in shield negating nebulas might stand a slightly better chance. That add him losing an entire system which he probably wont appreciate.
Stellar manipulation: 'How not to win friends and influence people.'
