Notes

Veteran Comments

Standard beam mounted on Shivan cruisers and corvettes. It is far more effective than the Terran's SGreen and marginally less effective than the Vasudan's SVas. There is some debate over this beams performance over the TerSlash, even though the TerSlash does 2.2X the sustained damage, the SRed is far more accurate.
