[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [qb] My point is that they could have been taking pot shots at the KBOP with their energy weapons (the ones that cover ther entire ship) instead of their relativly slow torpedos that they fired only after they knew exactly where the enemy was. Couldnt they have set the torpedos to detonate near the KBP's last known position? Even such "depth charge" tactics beat nothing at all.[/qb][/QUOTE]They address that in the novelisation (and for all I know, the original script). Spock mentions that by the time they track where the torpedo came from and return fire, the BOP will almost certainly have moved, so it would be pointless. And since when does the Enterprise-A have energy weapons covering the entire ship? At last glance, it only had them on the saucer. And, finally, do you realise how big space actually is? The chances of hitting the BOP with random weapons fire would have been astronomical. All that would happen is that the Enterprise would wear down it's energy stores without any benefit.
