Taking over the enemy Capital Ship is a cool concept but not as effective as it sounds on paper

Well there's the bug where it messes with the Mk6 if you use it before calling Mk6. So that needs to be fixed.

In a sense though, it seems weaker than both exec and prof. In a scenario where you get to ult, but the enemy fleet still wins, you still have that capital ship to clean up on the second pass. So in that regard, it doesn't strike me as 'fine as is'. At the least, that capital ship should be disabled, or at least hobbled for the next battle.

There's also the question of, are the capital ship bonuses still applying to the enemy fleet after Levi ult? Should that be happening? I haven't been able to verify this is my experiences and I haven't seen a video that provides conclusive evidence - I'm happy for someone to chime in on this and set me straight if I'm wrong - but I suspect they're still benefiting from the capital ship bonuses, and I also suspect that should not be happening - in which case that needs to be fixed too.

Additionally - considering how tightly bound capital ships are to their respective factions in terms of synergy - sure you're getting an advantage by having control of the enemy cap ship, but you really can't bring much of it's power to bear for the home team when so many of it's abilities are tied to it's own faction. Using those abilities after getting control of the ship is really underwhelming - I guess I thought it would feel... powerful. But it mostly feels like, "um - this doesn't matter, so hit any button"

The enemy fleet is still getting bonuses from the taken capital ship, but that also happens when you use the ult on Exec or Prof. For example if Prof takes your Exec out, your fleet is still counting TLs to get the locked breach and TL. I think its coded like lead unit for toons. If you kill the leader their unique stops (like no TM manipulation for Prof), but the lead ability persists (like BHs avoiding taunt on crewless ships). The problem with capital ships is the only ability is the "Crew" ability and they seem to pick and choose what stays, but don't state that in the kit.
