Self destruct was $3.5 Million crowdfunding unlock. It was first implemented in November 2014.

Lore

  • The United Empire of Earth captured a Vanduul carrier-ship referred to as X12 after the survivors were unable to follow the standard Vanduul protocol of self-destruct when threatened with capture.
  • Gil Taggart ship runs into some engine trouble, the pilot was shot to death in a room with three stasis pods, each one containing a greenish-skinned person also shot to death, and the ship had been set to self-destruct, but thanks to the same mechanical problem that had killed the engine, it didn’t work.
