Best base game weapon on extreme mode. On extreme mode it is very hard to aim things like lasers.

Also, if you use weapons like lasers or blasters or mass drivers you have to face the enemy directly. This means you are guarantee to get hit by any shots they fire as you are facing them head on. If you use a thermo you can just keep them on the corner of your screen and let your shots hit them while their shots miss completely. If you let them off the screen accidentally just readjust and all the shots that you "missed" will return and destroy your target.

The only drawback is its short range. But you can easily compensate using the technique mentioned above (keeping them in the corner until you can hit them)

Facing a Terran Battlecruiser? Just fly away and use the L'ksaar turret to outrange them.

Arriving from a range way too far away and impatient to engage enemies? Just use missiles! (Intellijet has the longest range of any non-emp focused missile)

Arrived too close and now they are in your face? Just spam EMP GL DX!

You see, I've got it all planned out!
