Well, they are range 4, and if I research the Talisman, I'll go from 10% chance @ range 1
to 100% chance @ range 4.
I'm thinking that with the tachyons & talisman, I might take out all the weapons on a DN with 2 LCs at max range, and only end up taking one volley of enemy fire. I could then capture the ship with a few normal weapons, for ship, shield, engine, armor, ECM, ComSen, etc.
