Problems with ramming

[geoschmo]

Oh, no it won't work that way. I thought you were using shield depleters. A ship with boarding as a strategy will attempt to drop the shields of an enemy ship using weapons, shields depleters or standard weapons. But it will not do so by ramming. You have to have a weapon to get the shields, the ship will then board, and after the boarding parties are used up it will switch to it's secondary stratgy and ram other enemy ships.
