Wing Commander IV - Deus Ex Style

I had an idea for playing Wing Commander IV: You are not allowed to kill any Confederation pilot that is not flying for the Black Lance. I got the idea from playing through Deus Ex, where it is possible to complete the entire game without killing anyone.

So the rules for the game would be as follows:

  • All non-Black Lance Confederation craft (including Capital Ships), must be disabled with leech cannons or leech missiles.
  • All pirate and Black Lance craft may be destroyed by any means necessary.
  • Don't worry about your wingman kills - you can't control their ordnance selections.
I think this would make for an interesting game experience. Anyone else willing to try it?
 
Unfortunately, it's not QUITE possible--there are a few points where you /have/ to kill fighters before a new wave will spawn. Especially the various insertion missions--the marines won't move to the next stage of the operation until the game checks off that you've killed the last wave of fighters.
