Now, Disney; allow the warships/hunters to cripple and board you, and vice-versa, and this will be the most epic update in POTCO history.... besides loot, of course.
EDIT:
Just watched a good video of it, and I have to say, this REEKS of ship customization. They are decorated in a way similar to the Raider ships from CD, which adds ammunition to the idea that we be able to make our ships look similar. I call: yellow sails, purple hull, yellow trim, and an emblem on the sails of a Witchdoctor!
