I think I’d also give the Andromeda Ascendant more obvious energy weapons.

Its reliance on Missiles was of course more modern, but in terms of cinematic spectacle doesn’t really compare to blaster bolts, phaser beams, Minbari Beam Weapons or Particle Beams.

Cheaper to animate of course, so entirely fair enough when you’re working to an early 2000’s unproven tv show sci-fi show budget.
