Well as the resident NB fanatic (well, of two?) I can tell you - only if

/after/
I typed the first part of the answer.  <grin>)

I really liked the NB as a "Nekton'ish" weapon (close, disable, board,
steal  - the ship)  When FTL was introduced to your culture by your
(eventually overthrown) enslavers you tend to take vengenance and
paranoia to a rather unbalanced degree.

Logic is an option in some aspects of Nekton Culture.  <GRIN>

Nektons - Real Marines! (Die, Ralnai, Die!)
Starguard, Dirtside 2,	Ratner's Space Marines, Stellar Conflicts
and Uprisings, and Full Thrust/2nd.  Resistance is everything!
