Anyone want to gamble on whether Admiral Quinn, Winters and anyone else of any importance will survive "The First Battle of Earth" ? (When Cryptic decide to let the KDF destroy the current ESD)

personally I hope we get some a new Admiral that thinks maybe we should earth a bit better than quinns doing :O

    I already killed Quinn, Winters, and Romaine (Memory Alpha), but they just respawn...

    Means you can kill them multiple times!

    I hope Quinn goes down with the Station, like the Captain in Titanic, because he kind of looks the same. It has to have an epic cutscene too, like Quinn standing in the middle of his burning office, then we zoom out through his window and the station blows up with one of those cool eliptical ring shockwaves.

    My money is on one or more of the big Federation types being an Undine and J'mpok being a traitor of some kind as well.

    He sends the entire KDF fleet to ESD. Meanwhile, the Great Hall gets blown up. Both sides get new starting hubs and new leaders.

    And since Dstahl seems to have been in touch with CBS regarding actors and likeness rights (ie. bringing Nimoy back, some discussion about likenesses and how SOME actors require approval, sorting out which actors those are, etc.) I'm gonna lay odds on new faction leaders for both Feds and Klingons.

    And my latinum is on Riker, Fed-side (either an aged look based on AGT more than Frakes or with Frakes' blessing -- which I think he'd give as a huge Trek supporter and someone who doesn't trade on his face anymore as a director), and Martok's son, Klingon-side, with Worf as his chief advisor.

    I think from there, you can have a war that the faction heads don't want to be a part of but which certain houses (and maybe Section 31) are continuing, that the leadership is somewhat powerless to stop. (After all, being advisor to the Chancellor or head of ESD doesn't put you in charge of your faction.)

    The net result is that the war continues but maybe Riker and Worf could hammer out small truces in things like STFs and some themed fleet actions, where the war gets set aside and we can team across factions in a single group.

    Quinn accidentally hits the station's self-destuct button and blows the station up. Then Captain Murphy gets a promotion to the new ESD.

    Is this all speculation or has a dev mentioned this, just curious as I had not heard about this.

    might of been a odd comment about it fly up awhile ago... I made this beacuse im curious if earth will feel as if its been attacked rather than... stations exploded but by a fourtune of luck we all survived.

    Lets not get carried away; They might do a new exterior, but dstahl himself just today said not to expect a new ESD INTERIOR for many months.

    Alexander is the next head of the Klingon Empire. He has sympathies to the Federation due to his time on Enterprise and Earth and his position in the house of Martok means he is respected.

    B4/Data takes over Starfleet.

    My two guesses...

    Admiral Quinn has already been replaced by a hologram double whose programming is devoid of any reference to intelligence gathered about the current state of Fed/Klingon fleet dispositions. Faux Quinn has recently gained access to a backdoor that will allow him/it to discover the truth...too late.

    Real Quinn is safe on Earth.

    Fixed that for ya. It is not an ellipse, it is a circle, a perfect circle, seen from an angle.

    Explosions don't do ellipses. Evar.

    Just because it gets changed doesn't mean that the previous version was destroyed by Klingons. Perhaps with all the time travel missions, minor things have been changed like staying with the original spacedoxk shown on the show.

    Well I hope it won't be Quinn, every time he hails me or I hail him etc, I just find myself uncontrollably blurting out "Quinnnney"...

    Really strange.

    I love all of this. Especially the Riker part.
