__Can be done Remotely__: Yes\\
__Energy__: 1 from Gun\\
__Can be done more than once per Round__: Yes\\
__**Note**__: Missiles can be held indefinitely or brought into the tractor bay to be disarmed (Science vs 11) - if not disarmed, they explode.  A piloting roll vs 8+Gun power is needed for a boarding missile to break a tractor lock.

====Notes====
Tractor uses the Gun energy to fire and can hold multiple objects.  The difficulty is increased by 1 for each held object.  If the power to Gun ever falls to 0, even briefly, all held objects become released.
Tractoring ships cannot move within 2 hexes of a celestial object larger than an asteroid.

A ship is only held for the turn it is pulled one hex. It can only be held indefinitely in a tractor dock. A ship can move normally the next phase and requires a second tractor attempt to move it. Only missiles, fighters and spacewalkers can be held indefinitely. [FAQ]

Tractors do not have a firing arc.  They face 360 degrees. [YHG]

This module has been deprecated in the mini campaign Bot Wars. It is now a regular sized cargo module that cannot be used cummulatively with other Tractor modules. It has a requisition number of 10 and costs 350 credits. Space walkers and fighters may be tractored into the cargo bay in which the item resides. (BW)
