The SGreen is a beam used by the Terrans in FreeSpace 2. A pair of this beam forms the main anti-warship beam capabilities of the GTC Aeolus. It is known for its extremely lethargic recharge time of 45 seconds, making it one of the weakest beam weapons in the game.

Veteran Comments
Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.
The SGreen is statistically one of the weakest beam cannons in the game, however, because of the unpredictable nature of "slash" type beams such as the TerSlash there are those who believe this is superior. The biggest fault of this beam is the 45 seconds between shots, so if one misses, then the ship that fired it just had a huge problem, as it can't defend itself for another three-quarters of a minute. The SVas and SRed are simply light years ahead of this weapon. This beam has the dubious distinction of having the lowest sustained damage of any anti-warship beam.
