[FT] Cross the Beams Weapon System

However, the cross section for interaction of the particles in each beam
weapon is HUGE.  This gives you an armor penetrating beam, but you have
to
hit the target twice simultaneously with beams at a wide enough opening
angle that the beams don't mingle until they've passed through all the
armor
they need to pass through.

tricky to use because you have to get the angles and the simultaneous
hits
on your target.  Might make for interesting tactical situations?

I thought the Vacc Heads might find it interesting. :-)
