Um. Vaporizing everything doesn't make it disappear. The vaporized components contain the same kinetic energy as the unvaporized components (minus whatever the laser pulse imparted on them). Ideally, you'll want both the radiative energy and the physical components to disperse, out of the ship's path. Hopefully, what's left will be spread over a wider area of the ship's proximal defenses. Just one more headache for you.Strato Incendus said:so even if they failed completely, after having vaporised everything perfectly up to that point,
