You need to tractor in the pods, as described on the briefing screen.

Move close to them,
press F4 for rear camera
press G to activate the tractor beam
aim, a white circle will appear on the object
keep the the fire key key pressed until the pod has been tractored in.

Use leech guns first.

As Kris said, tractor in the MIPs before you leave. Oh, and generally we refer to ships as being female.

Thanks for the leech guns tip. And Wedge009, i will make sure that all my ships will be female in the future. My only excuse is that i am a complete rookie at this. sorry for the late reply.

Whoa... now is that a quote that can be taken out of context, or what?

No, it's just got a load of c... whoops, wrong quote .

I know what he was referring to, but I found the way he said it slightly amusing - and certainly that is one quote that could be taken out of context .
