RE: [GZG] [FT]ParticleCannon [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

["Robertson, Brendan" <Brendan.Robertson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Easier mechanic:  "Particle Cannon roll beam die with +1 per die
(no-rerolls) [as per attack fighters].  This means that they cannot
penetrate through armour."  

Your costing for this feels right at 4 NPV/Mass with standard beam masses.
