My only objection is crew # it's insane, as mentioned before. I would have voted to board a vessel and steal a long range bomber or maybe an armed transport. Because taking an imperial, or whatever with a single squad is impossible or so improbable I would call BS.

Even the skeleton crew elder ship. Because, this is all speculation here, the smallest imperial ship has a crew of 20k, the elder classes I expect would be comparable.. ish. Even if it where half the size at 10k some of them would be security, soldiers. Maybe not enough to repel a real boarding party of SM Terminators but they would have a good chance against us. Especially if the crew was trying to stop us by sealing passages, venting atmosphere etc. 

I just don't see us taking any ships bigger than a strike craft or cargo ship.


That being said, I do like the idea of a chaos elder black pearl ship just causing trouble.
