Once upon a time, the idea of capturing a ship was presented on the forum. https://wildfiregames.com/forum/topic/104332-naval-overhaul-alpha-27/ In my opinion, it is a great idea to provide the opportunity to capture an enemy ship. My development of this idea is very simple: Let's make it possible for one ship to be captured or seizured (intercepted, converted e.t.c) by another player's ship with a garrison. For example: one ship that has no garrison (or fewer units) and another ship with a garrison (or two/three times more than the first) move very close to each other for a while, after which the ship becomes the possession of the player with a more powerful garrison. Much like taking over buildings. After capture, the first ship will receive part of the second ship's garrison. To do this, you don’t need to make animation, just add mechanics. Of course, it would be better to take into account the forces of the units located in the garrison, but only if it looked like hand-to-hand combat (without representing the battle itself, only capturing the line, as for buildings). And ships without a garrison could not be used for capture. Only for fights. Thus, the player can add units to the ship's garrison and go to capture another fleet. This will add dynamics and unpredictability to naval battles.
