Hi , don't know if this has been brought up before. But I would like to see missions where you could disable ships , and beam aboard and take tech from the enemy ship. I.E. weapons ,shields console, raid armory for ground stuff , let it be ramdom loot , and some good stuff . Just an idea, I think it would be fun and not to hard to do.
I rememebr an old PC game Starfleet Command, where your boarding parties had a chance at taking over the ship they were boarding, giving you another ship.
This sounds like it could add something to the game instead of just constantly blowing every ship up all the time.;) Players could have a chance to disable an enemy ship during normal combat. Disabling the ship could be like getting a rare loot drop. Once disabled the ship has a random amount of time before it can become operational again. If all other enemies are destroyed or disabled players could board the ship to take prisoners for duty officer missions, commodities, and equipment. Perhaps sometimes the ships crew activates the self-destruct and requires some kind of mini game to disable before looting the ship. If you fail, you get an emergency beam out before the ship blows up and no loot.
In Star Trek Armada it was possible to beam over crew and take over a ship if you had more crew that the enemy ship. Perhaps also have an automated option for people that do not want to do the ground combat. Just beam over a boarding party and get a random chance to get loot and number of prisoners.
It would be cool if you could take over, repair the ship and have it as a combat pet for the rest of the level at a price of having your crew reduced, so they could fly the other ship. Maybe need to use your ships replicator to create replacement parts for the ship. In addition, at the end of the mission players could get a dilithium reward from Starfleet or the KDF for salvaging an enemy ship.
