anti-bio beam width?
Hello, how accurate must I be with this beam to hurt enemy crew members? Just now I killed one guy which was already running away and it seemed the beam does not hit him, but maybe the effective width is wider then it seems right?

Re: anti-bio beam width?
Beams deal their crew damage based on tiles. You have to hit the tile the crewmen is currently on to deal damage. When crew is in motion, this can make it hard to hit them. Try to anticipate which tile the crewmen will be on once the beam arrives there. As always, pausing is your friend. By the way: If you manage to beam along the path the crew is running, it is possible to deal damage multiple time to a single crewmen with a single strike. The beam has to hit the crewmen shortly before it traverse to the next tile in order for this to work.
