Ship Design Philosophy

Spacecraft: Armaments and Laser Gun, Man Portable

1. Currently, highest damage potential is eight dirtside dice.

2. That's eighty percent of a spacecraft beam laser, translated as ten dirtside dice.

3. Either way, these weapons draw no Power from the spacecraft since it is assumed their energy requirements are tiny in comparison to other systems, and they consume neither hardpoints nor firmpoints.

4. So, free energy.

5. Medium range appears to default, for a large receiver, to five hundred metres.

6. Improved beam focus would technically, at plus three to damage, boost potential damage to ninety percent of a spacecraft beam laser.

7. Minus one to penetration.

8. Has the zero gravity benefit, which may, or may not, contribute to accuracy.

9. Since it can draw directly from the spacecraft power grid, it probably doesn't need an integral power pack.
