Don't worry about damaging the ship, the only thing that matters is that you don't destroy it.ĭon't be afraid to accept surrender from enemies that are near death, particularly in early systems. Starving them of O2 is also a possibility, but I personally have trouble making that one work very often. Intact ships tend to yield more scrap, plus sometimes other benefits such as free crew members (such as when you take over a slave ship).
Acquire a Crew Teleporter so that you can send boarding parties over to capture ships intact.
