The wormhole weapon moves the target randomly. What I was suggesting was what *should* happen with a tractor/repulser weapon against bigger ships given the logic Malfador is using. This would still allow them to be useful in combat on small ships. The disadvantage is the tractor beam would move *your* ship close to the enemy (and thus the enemy fleet) and the repulsor beam would move *your* ship further from the enemy (and back into your fleet).
