Laser beam heat weapon
Realism; takes a TON of power. It's strength is boring through a single block very quickly if given a consistent hit point; latching onto an enemy ship and using it similar to a grinder is the best option. very long range but at it's max it's quite weak; it also has 0 percent effectiveness when hitting a Mirror Panel/Polished armor block, but can heat it up causing a damage multiplier (can be reskinned for aesthetics and maintain effectiveness. has a slight sheen/reflects light better for knowing where they are as an enemy, can be shattered with a kinetic or explosive weapon.) however, when hitting a reflect block, the beam bounces back. You can use reflective blocks inside of your ship to have recessed weapons. Inferior DPS to something like a railgun at long range, but higher DPS at close range (In atmosphere. It might be superior at all times in space.)
Capital ships wouldn't be able to have many of these. Frigates may have around two of them. A fighter couldn't sustain one in anything but a slow pulse fire.
