This game has a lot of depth in terms of system interactions IMO, but that depth is almost entirely stacked against the player.

I finally got an invasion ship to the rebel flagship as Gila Monster A. I didn't have hull-damaging weapon systems except missiles. Well guess what, when you kill everyone on the flagship it actually doesn't matter because it starts piloting itself automatically, so you need to reduce its hull to 0. And if you destroy it by doing system damage with a boarder then you'll lose that boarder and still need to do the next 2 phases.

Supposedly high level players can do triple digit win streaks in this game on Hard with random ship, I cannot imagine the patience and encyclopedic mechanical knowledge that requires.
