      When I started EVO again for about the umpteenth time, I went straight into Vonian space in my little shuttle and boarded a diabled vonian frigate. I clicked on capture ship and believe it or not, I actually captured it!

      I've tried this about twice and both times it worked. Maybe I'm just lucky but still, the odds for a Shuttle taking over a Frigate?

      Mmm..Interesting, yes?

      Hmm, I would definetly say that you are pretty lucky. I don't think I ever even use that button; the ships I take over are no where near as nice as mine, so I wouldn't want them. Congrats, though.

      So it is safe to assume you don't like escorts? 😉

      Hmm, I should read more carefully. I thought he was talking about the "Use Ship as My Own" button. THATS the one I never use.

      Actually, I don't use either, since it has been several months since I've played EV or EVO. But still, my mistake. 🙂

      I never use escorts. Too hard to keep track of. They sometimes attack random ships that you don't want them to.

      (edit)Of course, this may have something to do with the fact that my usual ships have a crew max of about four (or however many an Arada has).
