It might just be that im a bit skeptical, but remember when the Klingons transported in the first time they set coordinates for the exact center of town....... well the second tim ethey beamed in, if they didnt scan, they would have been at the old center of town....
If that isn't enough for you then forget that and think about this, after Archer saw that they beammed into the center of town couldnt he put a torpedo right in th middle of town and as soon as they began to materialize detonate it ? wouldnt that have been eaiser to configure than moving the whole god damn town?

i wasnt too specific on my second idea, i meant for archer to have put the torpedo on the second klingon beam down, because he didnt have advanced notice about the first.

Your argument is heinously flawed. For Archer to detonate a torpedo when the Klingons beamed down would mean that the Klingons would be killed. And as everyone knows, nobody is ever actively killed in Enterprise. Yes, the Klingons will live to return another day, once the NX-01 is long gone, and obliterate that deuterium mining colony, and then go on to pester some other colony.

Although, I did find it amusingly ironic when T'Pol herself said something along the lines of "...the only way to prevent the Klingons from raiding the colony permanently, will be to kill them." Then later on, she pointed out that these particular Klingons probably don't even answer to the high council, and thus are renegades.
In a way, this implies that the logical Vulcan solution, if they had thought it through would be to kill them, since it would have no diplomatic repercussions. As we know from the second Andorian episode, Vulcans of these period don't shy away from brute force to solve problems

I noticed this as soon as I saw it, but completely forgot to make note of it.
Trip's kind gift of a complete set of schematics for the NX-01 was very thoughtful (and something that some of us here would kill for! ), but not very smart at all. Why, just a few weeks ago we encountered Romulans, an unknown enemy. And we also know that there are Klingons in the region. And who knows how many other hostile races there could be?
I predict that the next time the Enterprise gets in a firefight, the enemy ship will immediately target the ship's weakest spots, and Archer and Tucker will be pondering how the aliens managed to get their hands on a complete set of schematics while the ship explodes around them...
