"Beams" are directed energy weapons that can be mounted onto the hulls of various ships. They have three properties:

  • "crew kill" value determines the number of crew the beam will kill if the shields of the target ship are down,
  • "Damage" value determines the damage that the particular beam will do to the hull or shield of a ship,
  • "Mine sweep" value determines the number of mines that the beam will destroy if the ship is set to Minesweep as the primary mission. It is the square of the beam's tech level.
