Beam Weapons are directed energy modulators which are used during the Ship Battle. Additional weapons from Ships and Stations are Torpedos.

Overview: Beams.xls.

Beam Weapon-properties

• Beamtype (beam type)

Ein Typ 10 Laser kann Ziele angreifen, die 10mal weiter entfernt sind, als es ein Typ 1 Laser könnte. Es wird also die Reichweite erhöht. Am Schaden oder an der Schußfrequenz ändert sich nichts.

• Number on Shoot (number of beams per shoot)

• Beamtime (duration of beam)

• Rechargetime (rechargetime)

• Bonus from System (not implemented yet)

• Piercing (ability to pass through shields as if they don't exists)

Beam Weapons with this property passing enemy shields as if they don't exist and doing hulldamage. This don't work against multiphasic shields; these can't be penetrated and must be destroyed the normal way.

• Modulating (modulating beams)

Beam Weapons with this property modulate their beams permanently in new ways, thats why 50% of the impact always goes directly to the opponents hull.

>>note from Darkness: Even multiphasic shields can't reduce this effect.

• Max. Angle (Max. Angle)
