Summary0000538: Beam Warhead
DescriptionI haven't actually messed around with the expansion stuff yet, but it occurred to me that it might be interesting to have a powerful beam warhead implemented as a larger version of the beam frigates. It would hit all enemies in a line (cone maybe?) in much the same way a shaped charge would work in real life. It would fire in the direction the warhead was facing when it is detonated. Could be useful against a particularly reinforced AI command center, or super effective in raids where you park it behind a friendly exit wormhole ni an AI system and blow up the command post. Triggered at the right time it could wipe out most of the now freed ships depending on the layout of the system.

Would possibly have low armor given how it is more of a long range/trap type weapon. Not sure about AI progress changes.
