Tractor Beam Theories

By spartan1128, in X-Wing

Opponent gets to chose a green maneuver on the maneuver dial during the ships activation then discard all tractor beam tokens.

From what I can read on the Rule Reference card, the tractor beam token seems to have more than one effect on the target. ("special rules during the..") Thinking about what tractor beams do in the movies, I'd guess it would immobilize and/or force the target to move toward the ship that is projecting the beam. But HOW THE HELL would that be represented in game play?! I can't seem to conjure up any good ideas... but here is one:

On the next round, your opponent secretly selects a white or green manuever on your dial (you cannot look at your dial until activating). Then discard all tractor beam tokens from your ship and recieve one stress token.

edit: sorry, I commented after only reading the first page of posts.
