Yeah, that was my impression too... just a huge ball of plasma that slowly (relatively speaking of course) chases down the enemy ship... with a fairly high rate of energy/damage decay with range. I would think that the biggest advantage to such a weapon would be the ability of a big ball of plasma to ignor almost all point defense weapons (infact pd laser would just heat it up more!)

Perhaps, if you went with the plasma weapon as a seeker you could crank up it's pd absorbtion to the moon - and it would be a fairly unique weapon because of this.

Just my $.02
