[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Nim, Torpedos hae come a looong way between TMP and TNG- consider that the Enterprise in TWOK wails on unshielded [i]Reliant[/i] with torps - inflicting little more than explosive impact, but by TNG a [i]single[/i] torpedo completely vaporizes the [i]Lantree[/i]. I agree with Neutrino that torps were likely far less powerful than phasers for a long time, but gradually that changed. I think in TOS they're small change but have zero power drain for the ship (allowing more juice foe shields and engines). Shields have also evoloved (naturally) so TNG shields that might hold off the Borg for a few precious seconds would not be available to a TMP era ship (explaining why the [i]Melborne[/i] ate it so quickly). So, a TOS/TMP ship would not be a vaguely fair match- the Borg might even ignore the ship as not worth their time to assimilate. Looking at the tech gap between the TOS era Defiant and everything else from Enterprise, it's likely a TMP era ship would be adrift in a universe of uber-warships. The guys STSYCS figured that a Runabout with torp pod could likely take out a TOS Connie. [/QB][/QUOTE]
