It looks like I have a choice to make tomorrow

The Herald can also do a decent amount of E-War. Yes it's not equiped with an EMP module,
but it comes with a decent amount of Data-Spike Missles and a large amount of processing power (to deal with encryption)
When it manages to establish a link to the ennemy ship with one of it's dataspike missles, it can manipulate ship systems possibly rendering it defenseless.
Sorry to throw this ship back in the pool :P

Yea, I was looking at some possible overlap there, but honestly still not the offensive ship disabler that I am hoping for. I'm looking for something I can have that is specifically outfitted for that purpose. Basically, if I get space-jacked, I want to be able to grab a ship and go take my shit back. It may not work out like that with any of the ships, but that's essentially what I'm looking for.

I was hoping for a ship that could stop another ship dead in it's tracks.

This is exactly what happens for me. The problem for me is timing. I have to get close to the victim. I love that term. Shut down my systems sans weapons, so I don't fry my ship. Fire the emp. leave the my ship. Eva to the victim. And board. This all takes, for me anyway two or three instances to get it down right. But it is effective. Even easier if you have a cohort in crime to eva while you power up your ship for defense before the victim ship "awakes".
