This is what I would like to see in Stargate:
The Tau'ri discover Merlin's ancient weapon. They find out that it does, in fact, hurt or even kill Ascended beings. The problem is that to use it requires activating another device using Merlin's weapon (consider it an activation device). Merlin, being the smart guy he is, knew about the Ori and had planted a device in each Galaxy the Ascended have been to (a Ascended destroying weapon in Pegasus, in the Milky Way, and a final one in the Ori Galaxy).
The Ori find out about the devices and learn the location of this "doomsday weapon (Doomsay for Ascended!)" and they go full-force against Earth to take Merlin's weapon activator... at this point in the show, the Milky Way forces have gotten weapons that can compete with the Ori ships... so casualties are heavy on both sides.
In the end, the Ori steal the device and try to use it. The Tau'ri are able to stop the activation (thus saving the Ascended in our Galaxy) and retake Merlin's weapon. Season 10 comes to a close, the Milky Way takes the offensive, creating a massive taskforce that breaches the Supergate and enters the Ori galaxy with the objective of finding the device on the other end and activating it with Merlin's weapon.
I'm sure some fans won't like it but I think this would be awesome, leading into season 11 and dealing with us (Sg-1, etc.) searching the Ori galaxy for this device, fighting the Crusaders and other things as they do.
One easy way to also make it so that the Ori can't simply "use" their powers in their own galaxy against the Tau'ri and other ships is that Merlin's weapon creates a "bubble" of sorts that protects all the ships within it from the powers of Ascended Beings (sort of like a jammer).
Anyway just an idea... Stopping the Ori invasion, and then actually invading THEIR galaxy with our own force!
