Extractor

Extractors can be used by certain crewed ships to extract components from captured ships. When extracting a component there is a chance that you will not successfully extract it; if you fail at extracting, the ship that you are extracting components from will explode.

If you fail at extracting on your first try, the ship will drop scrap. However if you get at least one successful extraction the ship will drop nothing.

Extractors:
Stability increases the likelihood of a successful extraction.

Every ship can use extractors besides these:
 * W.D. Destroyer
 * W.D. Cruiser

Strategy:
An excellent strategy is to extract the lowest percentage component first and the high ones after as to guarantee something of good use. You'll either get a good component on your first extract or some scrap. (Strategy by Dragon)
