Is there any easy way to hotkey a shutoff command to some turrets, but not all of them? Either I decimate my target ship or my marines get fried.

I'm using the Split Panther to remove shields, then the Argon Sirokos to launch pods.

Not that I know, although when I used to board ships I used a single Split M7M. I would fire out the hammers (to bring down the shields to like 10%) using L (on the keyboard), then use flails to do the rest and to hold the shields down until the marines were onboard. Launching the marines was easy, as you just select boarding-pod and launch, then fire a few flails to counter the shield recharge.

That way you have a lot of control on things, without relying on the AI.
