Beam Weapons

The basic beam weapons within the game seem to force the selection of
the A battery over the B and C due to the range and die advantages. Has
any tried using different die for the different batteries.

Battery Basic Damage
	  1	2
A	4,5	6
B	5,6	7,8
C	6,7,8	9,10

	Shields Level 1
A	5	6
B	6,7	8
C	7,8	9,10

	Shields Level 2
A	5,6
B	6,7,8	
C	7,8,9	10

	Shields Level 3
A	6
B	7,8	
C	8,9	10	

The C Battery would still use a D6 when used as PDAF.

Using these rules the ship designer then has definite trade offs as to
which battery type to mount for the ship. The point cost for the systems
would remain the same.

Just an idea.
