Fact. See: Donk's Marine Force for Boarding and Repelling.

This is where the "ship gank" conversation leads down a nasty bunny hole to where every carebear dreads entering. CR doesn't want a grief mechanism to make it past the build team. I don't disagree with the concept and the direction, but at some point risk/reward has to have meaning or your title turns into "frag fest" rules for consequences. This is where the entire disabling a ship to a stated degree entered into the conversation about what it takes to "take" a ship from another player. The other concern comes from permanent death from avatar vs. avatar fps combat and how boarding and pew-pew without actually ever capturing a ship will be utilized as a grief mechanic.

Don't make me have'ta Troll ya Bro!
