Awesome job. The only thing I would add is an asterisk or something to point out which beams have cannon Bolt animations because it is difficult to see here.

The ones I know of are the Kelvin and Linked phasers/disruptors. Not sure if there are any others.

I’d more call them “bolt” animations rather than cannon animations but yes, this pic is great even if it does leave out that small tidbit

That's a much better word to use actually.

It just gets even more complicated when you take into account the covert phaser cannons have the same visuals as the kelvin phaser emitter beam arrays. But on the bright side it allows you to rock the vengeance with canon cannons!

Ah so that's why I've seen some vengeance lately using cannons that looked like kelvin beams. I was a bit confused first time I saw that.
