Combatting Telekinetic races

[Rainstorm]

Against those nasty psychic races I just go all master computers, it's slow and expensive but there's not a lot of other choices. Besides that, I've found good results using a heavy mix of shield-skipping weapons like PBBs, and engine destroying weapons. A few ships loaded with these will usually knock out enough components that you will often kill their AS, or one of their few but heavy hitting TPs, or at least slow them down so they can't close with you. The AI at least seems to like to be at near point blank range before they use their subverters.
