Hell no. That would be awesome, and it would make that "Can Equip Cannons" ability on the Gal-X usable again, since they could tractor people and cannon them to death to make up for the fact that the thing turns like a bloated whale. Suddenly Polarize Hull would become much more important! It would be awesome!
It would remind me of the old Netrek days, driving a battleship, tractoring people in to mercilessly phaser them to death. Plus, the tractor beam was totally useful back then. You maneuvered a clunker like a battleship using your tractorbeam like a bat-grapple to help you corner, turn, accelerate, and brake, casually yanking on friendly and enemy ships alike, pulling friendlies out of incoming fire, shoving enemies into it...good times.
