Description
After Action Report - USS Jeanne D'Arc, NCC-1731 - Constitution Class (Resurrection Refit), Captain Stovan Price Commanding"...The Dominion Vessel attempted to ram us from a relative bearing of 201.5 x 20. I ordered a course bearing 302 x 25 to meet the attack and the vessel overshot us. Her underside was exposed to us and I ordered phasers at full power in a stream. This cut a through-and-through path along her hull. The initial strike shut down power to the ship, indicating that we had cut much of the power relay system away from the reactors. I then ordered two photon torpedoes to be fired on the vessel, destroying it in the process. With this last bit of resistance gone, Admiral Selin lead the flee to destroy the Jem'Hadar cloning facilities and the ketracel-white refineries."

The last combat action of the USS Jeanne D'Arc takes place 105 years after her launch. After the Dominion War, the Arc, still under active commission, took it's place as an Academy Training ship.

Did the cutting beam damage effect turn out okay? I figure it'd be more like a plasma cutter than a hit from a tank's main gun.

I think the plasma cutter effect is right Β for a full powered phaser attack. This is not a photon torpedo, it is a phaser beam. Torpedoes are as everybody knows ballistic in nature, while Phasers are energy only.
Well done!

It looks okay, but it does resemble a plasma cutter beam rather than a photon blast.
I think the effect would have been better if the Arc's counter attack was similar to the rapid fire effect from STII: TWoK.
