In my mind it would be a low to medium range direct fire weapon with more damage, but less acuracy at close range than DUC's, but accuracy shouldn't drop off as quickly as with DUC's (due to slower speed projectile than a DUC? Can this be done?).
I don't see it having it's own propulsion, but maybe small reaction jets to control direction. That would put it between DUC's and CSM's range.
Well, you can't change the accuracy falloff.
The techlevel dependent 15%-25% accuracy bonus is what I suggested would be due to the thruster.
The nice thing about the accuracy bonus is that it is included
after the minimum 1% get put in...
So if the enemy has ECM 99, you can use torpedoes to get 26% accuracy and skip PDCs, or get 100% accuracy with missiles.
If you have great sensors, then the DUC style weapons do more damage, and are best.
This kind of thing should keep players fielding mixed-weaponry fleets, and retrofitting often to overcome PDC vs ECM vs Armor.
