Veteran Comments

The Shivan Turret Laser is the Shivan equivelent to the Terran Turret. This weapon is slow, and doesn't do much damage, but it does more than its counterpart, doing slightly less damage a second to hull plating than the Banshee and Prometheus R. The Shivan Turret Laser can kill a slow moving and damaged fighter or bomber, but in general isn't much of a threat, it is, however adept at killing bombs.

The blobs in general are the new point-defense weapons, knocking down incoming ordinance with an efficeny a flak gun can only dream of. Beams are excellent point-defense, but do not fire nearly as often.
