    I was wondering why you wouldn't just make a note that your PDSs
were
counter-missiles instead of beam weapons?  However I honestly don't know
enough about counter-missiles to say that it works well enough for your
tastes.  It just doesn't seem like the above idea was all that
different.
(Please explain if I am missing anything obvious :)

    However I am a big fan "new names for new weapons (that act just
like
other weapons in a game)" so that may be my bias.  However, some things,
like the afore-mentioned mecha fighters in another thread seemed to need
a
different rule, but that may be my anime background speaking.
