Aw, garwsh. You know me so well. The developer said to expect one by the end of the year. Of course, I wouldn't tell you to bank on that promise, either.

Using only official releases is probably very prudent given the higher level of problems associated with the experimental beta releases. (Yes, things can actually get worse than the 200+ list of problems currently exhibited by the official releases.)

I love the fact that they're finally putting boarding and takeover into the sim. That's something that I've felt has been seriously missing from computer Harpoon that's present in the miniatures rules. Now, we're going to be able to do drug runner hunts, Piracy, and Homeland Security search and siesure !

IF they don't screw it up somehow.

Emphasis mine.

Bingo. They claim that they are adding that feature. That does not necessarily mean that it works or doesn't somehow bugger up something else. From their past record, they have not been able to add a single new feature without an accompanying disastrous bug.

i.e. Underway Replenishment, Multi-player, Ballistic Bomb Trajectories to name a few
