I am just going over some of the rules with a fine toothcomb and I have a couple of questions about sandcasters.
Do Sandcasters protect against Pulse Lasers?
Do they protect against Particle Beams?
The reason I ask is that the Sandcaster description on page 111 states:
Sandcasters are defensive weapons; they dispense small particles which counteract the strength of lasers and protect the ship. A sandcaster reduces the damage from a beam weapon by 1d6.
So are they limited to just lasers (in which case Particle Beam weapons should be unaffected) and / or limited to just beam weapons (in which case the Pulse Laser should be unaffected)?
