If you have an appropriate rules system (Space Hulk, Legions of Steel,
or 
something similar) you could make both 
sides attempt to bring the ship on-line for their respective nations.  I

did something similar in my Full Thrust/Legions of Steel cross-over 
scenario Battle for Destiny, which you can check out for ideas, and plan
to 
do so again in a Kra'vak vs. NAC vs. Aliens scenario using Tony Lin's 
Aliens rules for Legions of Steel.  

This complicates things, of course, so it may not be something you'd
want 
to do.
