Default Re: Aquilaeians - and shield-skipping weapons (Master Belisarious, thx!)

I've been using tractor/repulser beams quite a bit lately on WP Defense starbases. At massive mount, they work quite nicely as a tractor/ionic disperser/tachyon thingummy/repulser combo. Anyway, IME, tractor/repulser beams do damage if 1) they hit shields, or 2) they affect the target ship. Now, 4 damage isn't likely to take out much; but hey, every little bit helps. This was under 1.49, btw; don't know if that changed in Gold.
