[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] I don't recall the special phasers from "Balance of Terror" ever being used as photon torpedoes. I always remember the photorp effect as being a tube shaped thing, rather than the big circles of Balance of Terror. I think they reused the SFX. And I'm also sure that Sulu handled weapons. That little viewer thing he had raised whenever the ship was being attacked (Spock's Brain, Journey to Babel). And as has been said, the SFX always showed the beams coming from around the lower saucer sensor dome thing. The blue beams were I believe always shown firing forward. The red beams were shown firing forward, or sometimes down. As a note, the SFX of the phasers in "The Doomsday Machine" are notably worse than the normal stock shots. The phasers in that episode are really obviously drawn elements placed on and off. They appear whole, and then they vanish. The regular stock SFX are actually animated, and show the phasers with a start and end point. If you get what I mean. I have no idea what was up with the red/blue thing, BTW. From what I remember, the first time the phasers were used was in BOT, where theywere just weird. After that, they seemed to just alternate red and blue. [/QB][/QUOTE]
