Laser Barbettes, Bays, and Spinal Mounts

One of the large gaps that I noticed in the MgT2 naval architecture was a complete lack of laser weaponry larger than turrets. While at Tech Levels above 10 there are a wide variety of energy weapons that are more powerful and longer-ranged than lasers, it is still possible to build viable large warships at TL9-10. For such vessels, large lasers of various sorts are likely to be in common use as primary and secondary weaponry. 

The stats for these weapons are built by comparing laser and particle weapons for turrets, and then simply scaling up. In general, beam lasers are 1/2 the power, 1/3 the damage, and 1/8 the list price of a comparable particle weapon. Pulse lasers do twice the damage of beam weapons. All of the rules around beam vs. pulse lasers, bays, and spinal mounts apply as usual without modifications. Barbettes are problematic, as they are not much better than a triple turret in damage, and are much less efficient.
