VERY interesting!

I can foresee this as a new element to contend with in PvP, and will greatly benefit teams with good communication. Is the team planning to make a devastating strike on the enemy? Strategic Maneuvering to get everyone in position, switch to Weapon System Efficiency so the escorts on your team hit harder and kill faster, and then quickly switch to Shield Frequency Modulation in case the enemy decides to counterattack. There are other potentially good sequences too, but those could get very situational.

So how does this benefit us? Let's do more in-game stuff while utilizing voice comms and find out!

Also, is it just me, or does one of those screenshots show the new cruiser having 5 forward weapons?
