Good times

I was wondering how I could properly use a tholian web thing... because lately I have used the current version... but it just expands, stays a few seconds, and then collapses. I was hoping that maybe there is a way to properly use this? Like a ship will send out fighters that start building the web... they are unable to be targeted. As construction progresses any ships inside have their engines cut. And once the web is complete (would take about 70 seconds ingame) it will collapse destroying all trapped ships.Though I can't seem to find out why I can't create it like that...

The Tholian Assembly isn't that small, it is just that starfleet did not explore it that much, I think. However, the Tholians must have had their reasons to sign a non-aggression treaty with the Dominion 
.
Furthermore I think the Tholians would rather help the Dominion than fighting against it, the founders would try to get them on their side, due to the fact that they couldn't really conwuer that nasty Tholian homeworld.

Are we talking about FO Tholians, or within the "canon" StarTrek timeline?

Okay... since no game has ever refered to the name of canon Tholian weapons (at least, none I played), I decided to come up with some.
//Beam Weapons
Phased Energy Beams are a common beam weapon of the Tholians. These beams can cause relatively equivelent damage of a Federation phaser. The only real problem is because of the Tholian vessel's high quantities of use of crystals in their hull, it is uncommon to see these extend beyond medium range.
Izione Beams are a more useful for long range due to the fact that these beams can still be accurately emmitted through solid crystal and maintain its long range capabilities thanks to its special property to refocus itself without the need of an exterior lens. Yet these are still in limited production due to the Tholians lack of ships compatible with it.
//Pulse Weapons
Phased Energy Pulses unlike pulsed phasers can go a much longer range due to it being a shot instead of a prolonged beam. Unfortunately because of this, it has the down side of a lower accuracy than most pulse weapons. But the Tholians have made up for this by making their pulses cause greter damage per hit.
Thorilon Pulses are a very powerful pulse weapon. But these pulses, though accurate, sap a lot more energy than even a Heavy Phased Energy Beam. Because of this it is only installed on large structures such as the Hive (when upgraded).
//Torpedo Weapons
Phased Plasma Torpedoes are weapons that were no longer mass produced ever since conflicts between the Federation and Romulans grew shortly after the destruction of the Enterprise 1701-C. One reason was the fact that these weapons were based off of the Romulan's older Plasma Torpedoes and were extremely short ranged. Another reason was because shield technology of the other races were speedingly increasing in strength. This is why the weapon is now limited to extremely old designs because of the fact that these torpedoes are now nearly obsolete against current shield technology.
Kyrlax Torpedoes are a newly found weapon that has been quickly implemnted into all modern designs because of its many specialties. First used in 2373, these torpedoes have been found as a most effective weapon against enemy vessels. The first reason is its amazing efficiency, Seven torpedo shots would only take the same energy to fire as one Federtion Photon Torpedo launch. The second reason is the fact that the Kyrlax particles have a low level, natural, attraction to ship's hulls, especially Federation and Dominion hulls, making it nearly impossible to miss the target. And the Third reason is because the biproducts from the process used to make these Kyrlax particles is infact 100% compatible matter for the Tholian's cores, making these Torpedoes processing also a source of fuel for their cores.
Well, I think that will be a good intel report for the Tholians in my currently in-progress project.
Any comments are appreciated.

Gamer, you have knack for overpowering species 
Correct me if I'm wrong but the Tholians during the FO timeline are not a dominant power, if they had these so called Kyrlax torpedo's I dare say this would contradict there place within the galaxy...

Ok Gamer just read that Kyrlax bit again, and to me it seems like you're just chucking things at them in a bid to raise there power within the galaxy.
Hey, let's not only give them powerful torpedos that never miss, lets say they can use it for fuel too...
See my point?
Believe me i like the idea of having Tholians in, but not if they can rival the Federation all on there lonesome
