We already know that as of 4.87, Solaris and Battle Razors turn into beam-style turrets which to my happiness will light up battlefields across all Sirius.

However in my opinion this concept still lacks anti-cap equivalent. Who else would want to see beam guns slashing and piercing each other for a change instead of using still classy plasma-style guns? This would be some challenge to balance right however we should give it a chance.

In my opinion (I could be wrong) there are 2 ways of introducing such to disco.
1. Heavy-slot, fast speed, very high energy consuming (to make up for fact it could hit and deal damage more reliably than regular blob gun). Ideal anti-cruiser/gunboat?
2. Medium-slot, alternative to already present primaries and pulse guns. Balance between low but reliable DPS delivered over bigger distance (projectile speed) or sheer DPS-energy combo of primary guns? I believe such deal will already exist between Solaris and Secondary guns with next update in light-BS guns grade.
