I remember someone was working on a script for the main deflector/particle beam from the Enterprise D seen in BOBW.
The idea is the weapon would take time to charge; discharging the weapon will cause heavy damage to an enemy, but also cause damage to the warp core over time.
As for the particle beam, it wouldn't be so much a weapon, but a beam that could be used to break up debris, asteroids, or planets. Remember the TNG episode with the alien metal parasite? The Enterpise D used a particle beam to break up the asteroid into fragments.
Creating the weapon hardpoint is easy enough, but has anyone considered following up on that script?
