Stats of the All Good Things Galaxy-class?

I think something was mentioned about weapons before the ship blew up, but I'd need to watch the ep to be sure.

I checked the DITL entry too. My thinking is that even the Oberth has phasers, primarily for non-offensive purposes, and we've seen non-offensive uses even for GCS phasers - presumably any ship would have them equipped for utilitarian purposes, especially considering the fact that we've seen no indication of a unilateral convention like the modern one Seafort mentioned.

[stitch626]

Good point. Is there a use for modern weapons other than as weapons?

[Captain Seafort]

Target shooting, and even that's derived from their primary purpose - to kill.

[stitch626]

So having phasers on board a hospital ship would be fine. They have frequently been used outside of the weapon category.

Nope. As Seafort said, their only other usage is basically practice for their usage to kill stuff.

That's why the early TNG type-II's were so ridiculous. A weapon that's not built like a weapon becomes a poor weapon.

I'm sure they would have something, even if its just too keep raiders or space chunks away.

[Mark]

Or those pesky spaceborn lifeforms

[Deepcrush]

Those things go away, when you HIT them with a reason.

Hey, if it works then it works. 8)

I bet DC still bangs his TV if it starts messing up, huh?

[Deepcrush]

I punched a pc the other day and its working just fine again. 8)

Damn. Why didn't I think of that?
