In Tactical Combat ships is 'disabled' either:
-
As long as it is under the effect of the stasis_field.
-
Or if at least once during the battle:
-
The ship has been boarded and captured by a non-telepathic race,
-
The ship has been taken over by a space_crystall,
-
Disabled ships can’t be controlled by the owner, shoot or retreat. Capturing such a ship does not remove its disabled status. Think 'the crew is dead'. Interestingly enough when a telepathic race captures a ship it remains functional.
Disabled ships:
-
can’t move, shoot or retreat,
-
stop providing fleet-wide effects:
-
wide_area_jammer bonus
-
Attack Rating if ship is a satellite,
-
leader bonuses if ship carries a leader,
-
-
immediately frees all targets from its:
-
stasis fields,
-
black hole generators,
-
tractor beams,
-
TODO is this true?;
