The most powerful beam carried by standard Terran warships, the BGreen is accurate and is one of the things that makes the GTD Orion so powerful, also standard issue on the GTVA Colossus unless it overdrives its beams, in which case they become BFGreen.


One thing to note is how Terran beam cannons discharge their beams. All Terran beams are weak because a significant amount of energy is lost every time they fire. In comparison, when you look at Shivan beams, you realise that they seem to discharge their energy very smoothly...and even the newer Vasudan beams do not suffer that much energy loss either. Terran beams are actually much more powerful than their Vasudan or Shivan counterparts, but because the Terrans don't seem to care very much about energy loss, they end up being less powerful instead. With all the energy released by a BGreen focused, it could probably do as much damage as a BFRed.
