You can't, on the other hand make yourself particle beam proof. Once I am awake let me see what I can do. In MgT, lasers in general are good only against lightly or unarmored ship/craft and as point defense. Which is why I made the comment about particle beams being better. For that matter non-nuke missles aren't all that great either. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [Just for the record, I play CT & pretty much ignore the others w/ a few exceptions] Just out of curiosity, does MgT include those 'dampers that make nukes essentially worthless? ========================================================================
