Err... I don't think this would work. The SWAC would be very expensive
financially and points-wise and if it did this it would most likely
get evaporated by a massed volley as soon it it hit the table. Well OK
you _could_ build the system into a super dreadnought hull. You'd have
to name it Constellation, of course (or whatever that old GW targeting
ship was called).
