It could even work along the lines of the IDF! SA. When you use it your shields regen a little bit but the AD of your weapons drop a bit due to your diverting power to recharge the shields. That way you won't have people using the SA every turn with no penalty, after all its only the plot powered auxillary reactors that have unlimited energy (or more specifically power when the ship needs it most 
) .
Another way you could do is the first time you use the SA its free due to full aux reserves but every time it is used after that it costs some AD.
Though missile based weapons might be exempt from that as there isn't much power to divert from them, the only power to divert would be the firing mechanism which would prevent firing them all together.
Also it could be something like CBD except maybe one weapon per arc can fire instead of just one weapon total with the same restrictions of CBD on a per arc basis. By this I mean if a ship has 2 weapons in every arc it can fire one weapon per arc, but if it has 2 in the front arc and 1 in every other arc it can only fire one of the front arc guns as every other arc only has one gun and is restricted from firing because of the SA.
Just some ideas. I like the idea of using a SA to regenerate shields I just don't think it should be a free action with no penalties as during a battle these ships don't have unlimited power to keep recharging shields.
And for a ship like the Prometheus it could just have the regular shield mechanic since it has regenerative sheilds already.

Here I was getting excited about some Star Trek minis...I don't like the look of TOS ships...
