Subject: FTFB: NEEDLE BEAMS
Just assuring myself that Needle Beams Cannot target Core systems.... I envision: ADMIRAL BLAND: "Bring our course to 210 and fire as you (Crackle)" ADMIRAL BLAND'S Headless Body: "Thump, squirt, wiggle"

> Just assuring myself that Needle Beams Cannot target Core systems.... No, it specifically says that Needle Beams can only target surface features eg drive, sensor grids, and weapons, but not core systems.

Unless, of course, you place your Admirals on the outside of the ship... "Uh, sir, I think that was the Admiral you just threw out the lock." "Well, Ensign, he did say he wanted to 'engage the enemy more closely'."
