Hmmm . . .I *thought* I had commented on this.But it doesn't seem to have gotten sent . . . so . . .Maybe (a la Star Trek) make it give a warning tone, as overload approaches?Plus a "safety" feature that focuses the blast (once this is unavoidable) into a rough cone . . .Which would - of course - mean that enterprising PCs would rig them as one-shot blasters . . .Which is okay. I've got no objection to PCs [literally] blowing credits on expensive disposable weapons.--Richard Aiken
