Hello Zan, there is reality, and there are the rules, and they don't match in 3E. According to the rules, disintegrators are unaffected and lasers get 1/10th range. Even if you argue that grasers are not lasers, they'd get 1/100th range, which would be almost a mile. Enough for point defense. Reality doesn't affect disintegrators. Normal amounts of gamma rays are absorbed quickly, but I wonder if the weapons-grade graser is going to burn a tunnel through water to limit the drop. 4E ultra-tech gives grasers zero range in water.
