Tractor/Repulser Beam

They go on battle stations or starbases, where their range enhanceing mounts provide an advantage. One tractor beam, a bunch of rippers or null space, then 1 replusor or 1 wormhole beam.

Drag a guy close, punch him in the gut a half dozen times, then fling him across the map.

Then wait as he slowly staggers back for more.

The only time I ever used repulser beams was when I was playing against one of my friends, and I was pursuing a fighter-heavy strategy. He built a bunch of dedicated PDC ships and sent them after my fighters while his fleet hung back and waited to go after my defenceless carriers.
I ended up building a couple Repulser Ship and I sent those in just in front of my fighters. They knocked his PDC ships out of the way and my fighter squadrons raced through the gap and wasted his fleet. Sweetness.
