I'm playing "Femme Fatale" and having a great deal of trouble getting a message pod (I think thats what it was) out of a "chimera". It took forever to destroy and once I did there was no pod visible, there was a tiny grey speck that could be seen on radar but there was nothing physically there to retrieve or board. Ne1 have any advice?

You just have to disable it. If you do too much damage, you can't board the ship.

Oooooooooh! ok, that makes it easier but i still cant select the chimera with my "target selector" (or whatever that thing u select targets to board or fire on is called) and selecting a target that way is the only way I know of to board a ship. I guess my question is, is there a way to board something without selecting it in anyway. Do I just sort of land on it blind or something? (come to think of it I tried that too with no luck)

P.S. Thanx for the speed of your earlier response.

Even if you do just do a little too much damage, you can't board it. As soon as it stops shooting, board it.
