PPB is the best weapon in the game. Discuss.

[Commander G2]

PPBs are a crucial part of any race's arsenal that do not have unique racial weapons. Cheap to research and requires very advanced shields to stop. Armor III is my standard defense against PPBs and put on one Shield 5 just to hold off any fighters that might get through PDCs.

I am in a game against an Organic race where PPBs are practically useless because he buts 3 or 4 armor on his ships. I have to use Null Space weapons to get to him and they are very costly and reload very slowly.

Because his ships use organic weapons, his ships build in about half the time/half the minerals. Organic seekers are a pain to fight because he can launch so many, reload quickly, and they move quickly. If anything is the bane of PPBs, I would say it is twice as many ships with organic seekers and organic armor.
