*'''Spot Fire''': The Spot Fire trait on a weapon allows a ship to use targeting data from a friendly ship, out to the Spotter's EW Range. Use the distance between the Spotter and the Target for the purposes of determining the effective range for gunnery, such as penalty to damage from EW.


Weapons:
{|class="wikitable" width="100%" style="margin:auto;text-align:center"
*'''Ray Beams''': Massive beam emplacements or spinal arrays far too powerful to use vectoring and thus relying on mechanical aiming. Base TN 5 plus the target's Initiative value (may not be able to hit some ships at all). [+Spot Fire] Does double damage to shields. Range 4-22.
|+ [Ship name here] w/ Anything Special
*'''HI Vector Beam''': Main battery of Ships of the Wall, too powerful for snap vectoring. Can spot fire. Base TN 5 plus the target's Initiative value up to 9. [+Spot Fire] Does double damage to shields. Range 2-18.

*'''QF Vector Beam''': Ubiquitous, basic anti-ship bendy beams, particularly suited for tagging fast targets. Base TN 6. Range 7.

Unrated ships were often relegated to 3Ds of fleet work: Dirty, Dangerous, Demanding without offering particular value to the general fleet engagements. However, in the turn of the 4th millennium the increasing prevalence of highly expensive electronic warfare which smaller warships were most suited for began putting them in the spotlight. Frigates became increasingly important to the conduct of fleet battles, coinciding with the Dreadnought revolution, where long range vectored beams could strike targets from immense distances when ships were provided up to date targeting data. Hunting the increasingly precious frigates, preventing them from spotting targets became an increasingly urgent priority of proper fleet tactics, giving rise to the missile armed Frigate Destroyer. In time these ships became general workhorses for fleets around the Large Magellanic Cloud.
