Star Trek weapons

Do they need to be reloaded? Or do they automatically recharge their ammo? The Unbeholden (talk) 04:04, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Depends on the weapon and the series. The TOS episode "The Omega Glory" contains several mentions of "power packs" for hand phasers, and one character's phaser apparently runs out of energy as it is fired at Captain Kirk (presumably saving Kirk from certain death in the context of the episode). I'm not aware of similar explicit mentions in TNG, but I seem to recall some oblique references to it. 72.0.15.8 (talk) 14:41, 29 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

RE Balance of Terror and Photon Torpedoes

There is a major error in this article. Photon torpedoes were not used in the Balance of Terror, the weapon used by USS Enterprise in that episode was a Phaser set to a Proximity fuse explosion.
