I want to be able to claim alien ships!!! I'm always trying to board and take them intact but the game won't allow me to. I assume this is due to "alien" technology my vudka soaked, spice hazed, disgruntled crew cannot comprehend, but damnit I want to fly around in nifty alien spacecraft! I say if we cannot capture them by default, we should have an achievement unlock that allows us to. I'm thinking perhaps an alien hunter related one? (I've still never found an alien hunter officer >.<) say.....destroy x number of alien ships on insane or something along those lines to unlock the ability to take alien vessels for your own? If the logic of not being able to fly them is that we don't understand their systems, then having lots of experience dealing with the alien technology would be the logical way around that. *shrugs* this is the wishlist thread. I can dream....of killing all humans with my stolen alien deathship mwahahahaha!!!!

You do not want to sit in an alien captain's chair without an alien captain's buttocks.
Scuttle it for cash.

Hey, it's up to your Captain.
But I know my Captains have always balked at the interface requirements. (think invasive sexually-offensive alien "living hardware") Just be warned, no one has ever been disconnected from the "controls" once hooked up, all attempts have resulted in dead bodies. Oh, and no one yet has succeeded in doing anything other than moaning in pleasure/pain while connected.
So I say "Scrap Em". Some things are too wrong to let live.
But like I said, it's up to your Captain. After all, one Captain's perversion is another Captain's pleasure . . . .

You know there was always a misconception in those old stories of ET encounters way back in the 20th century that aliens an-al probed people. However, in our enlightened era, we know they were just seeing if their flight controls were compatible with human anatomy.
The crash in Roswell was one of those experiments that proved No, human butts were NOT good at flying alien space craft.

17 cases of vudka, two kilos of spice and several ackward moments later and my science officer and i have found a solution! I still can't pilot the alien ships, but now all my vessels are equipped with modified alien seats. Think "magic fingers..." a fantastic massage chair that is not only comfortable, but raises morale among my crew! When life gives you tentacles, I say hurray! Mind you I've broken out in a hideous glowing rash, but progress is progress.

Sometimes I understand why the Cadar fire first. Nobody wants to see that on the hailing screen.

Don't knock it till ya try it! Nothing like warm tentacles kneeding away at those tension regions after a hard day of ME as your captain. I consider every crewman expendable (excluding myself and the ships bartender)...compared to a day on my ship being groped by a slimey rash invoking tentacle/control surface/ ergonomic whatever the hell alien thingy is unadolterated luxury. Finding staff is SO much easier than finding the elusive escape ship upgrade.....also...wait....the cadar hail BEFORE they see me and fire? Aw **** I gotta start using the belt on my bathrobe.....
