In addition, [[tackling]] and [[capacitor warfare]] may be considered as using e-war weapons.

Technically, e-war does not do damage but generally acts to disable or otherwise reduce the effectiveness of enemy ships. E-war does require modules, however, and since these take up space that might otherwise have contributed to the ship's offense or defense, e-war is most often used in the context of ~~fleet actions~~. ~~In fact,~~ most e-war will not work against NPC ships.
