    I recall those working once on Enterprise, but I can’t remember the context… maybe I’m misremembering and it never worked?

        Yeah, my comment was about the grappling hooks. They weren’t very reliable either.

        I’m sure the tractor bean on TNG worked way more often. And I don’t remember what they had on TOS.

          Once they grappled onto a ship’s nacelles and disabled them using brute force.

          Physical attacks can work pretty good sometimes.
