[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Meh, I'm sure they'll fix that. They busted a "drive coil" this time around, but it might be a duct-tape kinda fix. As for the "supercharger" phase cannons, I believe they were first seen in "Shockwave, Part II" when Enterprise was being swarmed by Suliban cell ships. I've actually got a pet theory regarding the number of phase cannons... I think they actually DO have only three or four, but the cannons themselves are able to travel around the ship on rails. We've seen that the cannons aren't very large, and deploy from hatches on extending arms. What if the cannons are capable of moving around inside the ship to get from the bottom hatches we usually see them in, to the top ones? What if whatever goes into making the phase cannons is so complicated or expensive that it's more efficient to deploy them from various hatches rather than getting more of them? I know this is reaching, but I'm inspired by what's been said of the never-seen robot arms Enterprise has, according to the designer. Said arms are on movable cradles (a la planned ISS modules) that can deploy from the top OR bottom doors we see on either side of the saucer. If they can do that with big robot arms...
