Weapons Question 1: Star Trek Phaser
IIRC (and if I do not please correct me) a Phaser has 4 settings, light stun, heavy stun, kill/disintegrate, and heat.
Kill is easy, a simple RKA. Heat, transform object to red hot object. But what about the Stun setting(s)? Is there more difference between light and heavy stun than dramatic necessity? Is the Stun setting a STUN-only EB, or a NND, and if a NND what would be the approperate defense? (Would prefer something other than Force Field, a little overloaded on NND's stopped by non-material defenses now.)
All input welcome, all help appriciated. Thanks everyone!

The only difference between light stun and heavy stun is that one is light and one is.....
Seriously, for 'light stun', just build an Energy Blast.
For 'heavy stun' build an Energy Blast with either Armor Piercing or Penetrating.
Build both settings as separate slots in a four slot multipower.
for example;
slot 1: RKA
slot 2: Transform / Change Environment (normal to hot;increase temp)
slot 3: EB
slot 4: EB, Penetrating
Take an OAF on the entire multipower to reflect the fact that its a phaser to help reduce the cost.

+20 COM unconrollable (shirt comes off in combat!) Lasts long enough so that Kirk can improve his seduction attempts on the moon princess or any other female within one parsec of the action!
What makes you think it was only females? Kirk always impressed me as being able to overlook such things as species and gender.
