Strategy I miss from other games

Taking over enemy units to gain some of their races stuff

from Sins Forums

Ok, remember in starcraft specifically (I know I did this in other games, somewhat in AOE, but starcraft is best example) where you could grab an enemy builder unit and run them back to your base to start building enemy race buildings, troops, etc. That's one thing that would be awesome to do in sins of a solar empire. So far I've only found Domination for the rapture battle cruiser (Will add more as I look at list and find them) to be able to grab frigates. Which doesnt amount to much. What does everyone else think of this strategy if it was added to SOASE?

You can steal Raloz Heavy Constructor's with Domination.

I've founding stealing a TEC enemy's starbase constructor and building a TEC Starbase with it a rather nasty kick in the balls, even if you can't access it's advanced tech do to research limitations.

But yeah, aside from Domination, you can't really access other race's stuff.. ultimately that's probably for the best.

Neat idea. But yeah, probably for the best since usually I did very well with that strategy although it sucked on my resources.

Hm... they changed that. Back in the beta I tried that, but the ability to build starbases was disabled on captured constructors. They must have stealth changed that.
