captured ship stratedgys (sp?)

[Skulky]

Just wondering what strategies captured ships use? What about gifted ships? Could someone gift you a warship with orders set to "don't get hurt" and it would then be useless unless fleeted?

Your opponent can also change the strategy for that ship class after you take control of the ship, if you don't retrofit, I believe. I could be wrong.

Darkhorse is correct.

so ur enemy could really really **** you over right? especially if he was your ally for a while and only built this class for gifting to you

Yep. You should always try to retrofit captured ships. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

You can put the alien ships in a fleet with "ships break formation" set to false, and then it will obey the fleet strategy.
