Aegis not working the way it should?

[Meliav]

Hello all
I come to u with a question regarding AEGIS.
After reading that a colossus is a good ship for capping i went and bought myself one of this fancy toys.

I fully equipped it with a full complement of weaponry (meaning i have on it all the weapons for any possible config).
I even went around searching for enough ammo for the MD's.

I got the 50 crew members required for a M1.

After all this i went to some pirate bases and attacked them

Final result, 3 bases down, and not a single cap
A forth base, finally 1 pirate ship capped, but the ship kept firing and killed it.

Am i doing something wrong? or the script isnt working properly?

Please gimme a hand guys, thats the only reason i bought the collosus this early in the game.

Thanks for any help.

There is a special AEGIS command for "Capture Mode". Otherwise the guns have already fired too much when the capture happens, and Boom.

you are using a "big (capital)ship" to cap .. that would be like letting a elifant pet your goldfish .. .. now you use AEGIS .. that means that the elifant has very soft gloves on .. but its still an elifant ..

Good example, thanks for clearing it out, guess it was not my best idea to bring a elephant, huh?

I did want to try and see if the maximize captures would improve it in any way, thats why i think its odd, the command actually is worse then just using my PSG Perseus.

Thanks guys.
