Which is why we remember the UN capital ship which won
initiative with an ORC in F arc at range 3 mu.	Fired 4
grasers...no damage.

Yeah, it sucks to be the one in front of a set of grasers
when they're having a good day.  But that's the same
reaction people had to SMR, and to Kra'Vak when they first
came out. We might want to add a line or two of text to the
weapon description that lets people know that *on average*,
grasers are about as effective as the same points of
beams--and sometimes you have good rolls and sometimes you
don't.
