I recently created a scenario with some "goodies" spread around for people to find. I put one each of three units near each player's starting base: artifact, colony pod, and supply transport.

I guess I expected the pods and the transports to work like the artifacts. That is, you capture them after successfully attacking.

However, SMAC treated them like mindworms. Gaia had a chance to capture them (and actually did with the Colony Pod) and when they were destroyed they produced _PLANET PEARLS_!!

Oh well. This is a minor thing, but it would be nice if Alien units could be captured and not destroyed. And even if they are, I'm not sure there should be planet pearls!
