Roll to aim: 3. You fire one of the SDW-70s at the weakened frigate.
Roll to track: 6
Roll to track: 5

You awkwardly blast at Frigate 1, though you manage to get the beam pointed more percisely at important bits after a while.
One second of continuous fire from the SDW cannon brings down the frigate's shields. You continue firing the cannon at the frigate until it wanders off target.
The beam melts the ship's armor almost immediately on contact. It cuts rather large holes in the hull. From the looks of things, any more time on-target would have cut the ship in half.
Roll to aim: 4.
Roll to track: 3
Roll to track: 1
You fire the other gun at the other ship. Though your initial aim is better, it manages to outmanuver the beam much faster. Its shields are down.
Dragnar: 4
You almost effortlessly shut down the shieldless frigate's life support systems. That was remarkably easy.
Ragnarok: 6
You pause for a minute acessing various databanks trying to identify the pirate frigates. You identify them as pirate frigates.
Pirate frigate: Low technology level. Used by weaker bands of pirates and marauders.
Armament: Two guided chemical missile launchers. These can track ships without any ECM technology, but will run out of fuel soon enough if you can run faster than them. They aren't fast at all, so it shouldn't be terribly hard.
Speed: Extremely low. These ships are cobbled together from spare parts, and can barely get to warp.
Defenses: Weak shields, weak armor.
