Default Re: Exactly how Far:Repulse weapon

Yes, tractor/repulser are great weapons, when used in right combinations.

The tractor weapons has been already described, but i have another use for repulser.

Take a medium/heavy ship (cruiser->DN).
Arm it with medium/long weapons.
Put a repulser or two. And, make it be the largest mount possible.
Put it to the end of the weapons.
And what do we have?
You fire, do heavy damage (many weapons do heavy damage...), and then throw the enemy away, so it could not return fire...kinda useful, especialy against the AI.

Or, as a support weapon for those with slow firing rate - like seeker ships. Fire few seekers, and throw away anyone daring to come close enough.
