Toying with some game dev ideas for 4x space games.

If you can do that, what's keeping you from teleporting an atomic bomb into the engine?  Or, if you do want to keep the ship, dispersing a few kilograms of nerve gas or few milligrams of plutonium dust into the air?

What would the plutonium do?

I labor under the presumption that plutonium is radioactive enough that dusting the interior of a spaceship could deliver lethal doses of radiation.  May be wrong, in which case I fall back on my nerve gas idea.

Lethal, perhaps, but not in the short run. It would be impractical, since cleaning out the ship would have to be very thorough before the new owners could use it.
