...Well I have always assumed mirrors! In a starship you have all the
gubbins of a 'Beam' inside the ship perpendicular to the surface and a
sort
of movable (in and out) parabolic mirror that can spin quite fast. The
mirror would be contained within a dust/debris cover that is only opened
for
firing. GZG ships have loads of these 'bubbles' or have I got this wrong
and
have all the bad castings!!!
