What I'm more concerned of are those missions where you wing with someone, mission loads, and your wing is a targetable ship that you can fire on.
The other night when I was winging with a Lyran in an dread, we got one of those missions. Killed the AI, then when I was leaving the map, he shot a phaser up my butt in good humor, and I swung around, shot my drones, then he nearly killed me with his ESGs.
Down to 4 power, no systems online. Man I was laughing my ass off.
