When using a nubian for overcloaking, consider giving it a single weapon to keep the enemy from destroying it with 'kill unarmed' orders. If you have enough other unarmed ships in the fleet it probably isn't necessary but if the overcloakers are your only unarmed type they would be a tempting target. The problem here is battle orders, but if your overcloaker is a little slow it's not likely to matter.

Your OCs shouldn't be present in the battle!  So unless the enemy takes you by surprise and his goal is to destroy your OCs they should be safe.
Adding a weapon will make the OC less efficient, simply split them off when you send your fleet into battle, this way the enemy might be even more wondering where the hell that fleet came from  he should never know the existence of your OCs
This is however a good idea for your robber barron ships, putting a weapon on them, this way they will be protected by your chaff and the enemy can't easily kill your raiding ships.
Of course make sure they have chicken orders (and not the once that are Stars! default, adjust them!)
