Only a quick one, but all i'm going to say is "REPULSORS ROCK!!!"

Repulsors
Hadn't seen them in action yet. Fun. No damage to the target ship?

There was damage, but i put some torpedos on the repulsor equiped ship.
The practical use for repulsors would be to put them on a mount onto planets/bases and even sats, the extra range makes them useful and they keep ships from getting close.
Tractors..now i'm still working on a valid tactic for them. They don't have enough range for them to be useful.

Repulsors/Tractors
Tractor beams are useful to bring a ship in for ship capture. Not sure how this has been implemented in SE:V

Game over, boys! 
All I gotta say...
That looked downright cool, I'm gonna have to try that.
*edit*
Seems to me that this repulsor is WAY to powerful, at least for any sort of effective weapon. It seems to me that it is quite an effective combat ender.
Repulsors Interesting Tactic
I will have to try this Repulsor tactic.
It sounds like it would be worthwhile to experiment with these repulsors.
The one time I tested it the

The tractor beam does the same but in the different direction, sling shots the target through you.
Doesn't always happen though, so somethings a bit fishy.
Both beams
Both those beams can miss, which might be what you're seeing. Also, in SE4 you had to have a bigger ship than your opponent or it wouldn't work.
Repulsors Rock...see link at top
Damn that no-edit. I was going to add a bit at the bottom...
The repulsors used were stock 'unedited' componants, lvl 9.
There was 4 equiped, but i'm not sure if they all fire at the same time or not. One of my previous simulations had them fire at closer range (which has a greater effect) and the ship flew for miles!!!
