Give planets a planetary tractor beam that can capture invading ships if they lose too many marines during the attack. Would make epic fails even funnier.

only if the same goes for failed ship to ship boarding attacks.

If the attacker fails then the defender has a % chance of capturing some of the attacking ships

Need an s-ship? If you have Gold just search Jangos, then select the price you want. If you don't have Gold just pm me for a design.

maybe if you fail miserably.. just make it a terribly low chance 1-2% chance of it even happening... so you rarely get a facepalm :p

also make it so the tractor beam "sucks the ship into orbit and it explodes" or something, otherwise this leave a hole for abuse...
