Instead of complaining that a new power arrived, adapt and use that power for your own benefits. Adapt or die.
How I think of DUST players boarding EVE ships:
It-¦s pretty much impossible to destroy a ship as DUST player. Even a Frigate-sized ship as the Rifter is as big as a Boeing 747. They and destroyers could be destroyed by one team but here you have to consider their speed so boarding them could take quite some attempts and would thus cost way too much.
Cruisers and Battlecruisers would be the smallest ships boarding would be possible within a few attempts but they are already around 500m long and over 100-200m high and wide so they would have around the size of our current skirmish maps with all floors combined. You-¦d need a hell lot of energy to even damage such a ship.
Battleships would be about the size of our whole map, not just the accessible parts and i don-¦t even talk about Capitals as they would be as big that the whole volume of our maps would fit in several times.
So far about the ship sizes, now on to the ways of attacking.
There would be several ways to attack which are differently effective to each ship size
1) Bombing them.
It-¦s simply: Mercs place bomb and bomb damage all modules around it. The module takes heat damage so the player can overheat it for a shorter period. Of course the ship would take damage as well but from the inside to the outside (Hull->Armor->Shield) This would terminate all mercs that are not in a safe room that is locked from the room with the bomb.
2) Shutting down modules.
Here you would attack the module directly and turn it off. The larger the module the more hacking terminals must be hacked.
The module will be offline as long as all terminals are held by the attackers. Turning the module off and on in EVE restarts the system and all terminals have to be hacked again. For all who don-¦t play EVE: to activate a module on the flight you need 95% of your capacitor.
3) Shutting down ship systems.
Like with modules it should be possible to shut down ship systems like the capacitor, the warp drive or the shield system but this would require you to hold all terminals all over the ship in order to only start the shut down process. They have to be held for like ten minutes then until the systems are shut down. Once one terminal is hacked by the defenders the systems start process begins and they are back up in five minutes.
This is how I expect it to be and as you can see would it be quite balanced and to really completely destroy the ship it either has to be already in like 20% structure or the pilot has to have nothing fitted against infantry or no infantry hired that can defend his ship.
