Hostile boarding is a strange mechanic
In RL for general use it went out of fashion in the age of sail

I can only see it working on a disabled ship or a ship that has already given up in both those cases all you realy need is a ship that can match airlocks and carry troops so basicly any of them

matching courses and lining up the docking hatches is going to be a nightmare with a friendly ship never mind one that is shooting and dodging

to me the Prowler has to bring something speacial to the fight and with its high price point i am guessing it will
either some kind of inderdiction system to pull a ship out of warp or a way to disable the engines of a ship very quickly.

This ship is either going to be way over powered or usless

Still hoping that it will be a mini carrier that fires one person boarding shutles/misiles that chase down the target and burn there way into the hull and then eject the boarder into the enmy ship 50/50 boarding action/suicide
