I have used wormhole beams on my explorer cruisers, and I have to say that it is one of the most useful things I've seen, even though sometimes it pulls you closer than further.

Even with weaker weapons than the oponent, you can fire first, shoot the wormhole gun and he is bLasted far away and eventually it dies. Also very useful to stall ships until turn 30.

Of course there is one downside; somehow, if not used in Tactical, the Wormhole gun has a tendency to create Range check errors, And I lost a lot of games that way.
