The force pulser takes a different approach to defending craft from projectiles. Instead of shooting them down. The system will attempt to slow them down. Making them easier to dodge.
It would best be placed on somewhat speedy and maneuverable craft like hydrofoils, but it would nearly be useless on larger ships for obvious reasons.
On top of that, it should be powered by electricity so it’s not spammed on tiny planes. It must also struggle to slow down already slow projectiles like crams and torpedos, as we don’t want the system to make them obsolete.
With that being said, it would be most effective against rail assisted shells being fired from far away, or missiles. It COULD slow down plasma, but I’m not sure if that’s possible.
