sort of a take-away from star fleet battles etc.

teleport bombs and boarding parties should only be possible if both shields are down. you have to drop yours and they have to have theirs down to teleport. It's a little cheesy right now.

or some modification of that idea

Would require a rebalance of every weapon and ship

e.g.
All mantis ships would need a rework since their effectiveness is dependant on being able to send over boarders before your shields are down.

Same with bombs many ships only have one gun and a bomb they would be harmless if their bombs can't get through.

this would makes shields too good imho, shields should not be a safe from everything mod

Don't worry, you get to see a shield that prevents teleporting

boarders have enough of a rough time as is it damaging them on the way in would make them impossible to use effectively
