Re: [Space Opera] Boarding Pods ideas
"Alright recruits, listen up. The shields of the *$%^#& can block smaller missiles, but NOT biggers ones -- it just fries INTERNAL electronics, especially sensors, computers, and fly-by-wire controls, etc. It's got an EMP type carrier signal. Whatever. Shielding against this is possible, but expensive and not all that reliable. Pods, these babies here, they are dead simple. Stick-and-rudder. No electronics to fry. Of course, once inside the shield you are unable to signal to us -- unless you take the ship. So, recruits, take the ship!"
