Do you use IPGs?

I use so much Boron weaponry, my toothbrush is an IonD.

I keep a couple in the bays, but have them set to a group I never use.

The only use for Boron Ion weaponry is in Split breakfast cereal.

So, I have a small collection of boron weaponry atm and I never use any of it. Does anyone have a practical use for the boron IPG that makes it superior to the CIG?

Your poll answers are pretty bad.... but you can actually use them to assist in capping ships since they reduce the enemy vessel a bit upon impact.... makes your marines life a bit easier sometimes.

I put 8 on the rear of all my Boreas and Rays - very rarely get used except for fighter defence. Have put 3 up front with 5 EB on Shrikes to test & the seem ........ adequate. Other than that, hardly ever used - Neil

I use IPGs on one of my HCPs which I use for capping. CIGs are probably a better general purpose weapon.
