Let's say I have a piece of valuable cargo that's small enough to be moved by transporter, and that a Marine unit could theoretically raid and capture it.

My question is, is it possible to hit/run a particular cargo box for a particular item? Can a ship's sensors detect items like that in order to target a hit/run?

Or what about just destroying a particular cargo box in order to destroy a valuable cargo item? Again, can the ship's sensors detect it that well in order to target the H/R?

Or is it all down to the scenario rules, in which case I'm home free 'cuz it's my scenario..... Wink

Sounds like scenario rules to me. Way to specific and "gritty" for normal FedCom; treads into SFB "needs 3 pages of rules for just this one interaction" territory.

We've done things like that before in some "home brew" scenarios.

For the "successful but dead" option we took that to mean that the Marine squad was able to transport the object back, but were killed or captured themselves.
