ok i just had an idea about this only a few secounds ago so its prob got a few bugs to be worked out =P
i suggest a hvy beam class weap or maybe it wud fit into a speciel slot wat iim about to suggest may hav been thought of first but im to lazy to look so here it goes.
the weap im suggesting wud be called a *lightning arc* it wud be as strong as a cl1k but wen it hits a target it wud damage sytems *lightly* and if theres a ship nearby to target it wud jump to that target aswell.
well thats all i cud think of now so if u want to add or modiy any of it feel free to and PLZ do not start flaming it ty

maybe remove the system damage, or make it almost insignificant ( so when used in numbers if hvy beam it wont be uber ). Max jump of 3 or 4 for arc, 250 first target maxrange, 200 second, 150 third etc... Something like that and make the damage drop too or only one of these 2...
That would work.
Maybe some issues with lag tho.
Also...
How about an instant discharge, but effect is progressive thereafter ( maybe with a graphic effect on the affected ship like lightning crawling on the hull and fading until it doesnt cause anymore damage ), weapon recharge right away but slower than cl2k, much slower, making kluth more hit&run.

Sounds more like a magic spell than a spaceship weapon

Magic!?
Maybe get a special ability to raise dead hulls from the battle and use them to attack!? Like skeleton warriors!
A Summon Gaifen ability!
Earthquake Beam to wound large numbers of enemy infantry!
Wall of Plasma Fire! Hurts to fly through, acts as a temporary barrier...you know, to protect the flanks
Insanity Virus! Makes your targetting systems randomly attack nearby targets; friend or Foe!
Terror Virus! Either use it on enemy troops and it lowers their rating, or use it on an enemy fighters and it makes them break off the attack
Ship to Ship telepathy! Read the enemies every typed word!
Love potion! Use it on enemy supplies and their reloads will automatically heal you...untill you destroy the supply ship, that is.
Just fun ideas...not serious
