Wow. :-)

In Civ1, a civ with no capital is immune to having its spaceship destroyed
by having its capital captured.  (In that case, you'd better get those
engines & modules built, and launch *fast*!  The one or two times this has
happened to me, I've never been able to get my spaceship out fast enough.)

However, I have no idea what happens in Civ1 if you completely conquer
a civ with a spaceship en route.
