Black Hole Weapons - Laser/Particle Beam?
Good to know! Thanks for that! I believe this answers the question for me ^_^

Black Hole Weapons - Laser/Particle Beam?
Oooooh, now that's an interesting thought! So it would be a radiation weapon, not as much a laser or a particle beam? You'd basically fire a gamma ray at the black hole, let it circle a bunch of times, then channel it at some unfortunate target? Hm, any idea on the actual #'s for the power of something like that? Would it make the laser more powerful by one order of magnitude? 10? Sorry for the long delay, worlds been busy xD

Hmmm, okay so it -can- work, sort of kind of XD When describing it I'm guessing I should avoid the use of 'acceleration' and instead use something like, amplification/blue shifting of the laser, altering the mass of the particle beam?

Ahh, I see, okay then it sounds like maybe the matter weapon variant is the better choice. I had assumed that because of the way the black holes worked that the photons of the laser would pick up additional kinetic energy, but my knowledge of such things is very poor. Would the particle beam gain effective traits from it or do you think it would still be essentially non-viable?
