    The nature of a game is that the PC often racks up a remarkable resume. If the game were about your char achieving the mundane, it wouldn't be as compelling.

    Can you imagine a new MMO game about playing an MMO? The Onion did?

    lol the website autofiltered W0W from your link. Are we that afraid of the competition that we need to filter all references? I know they've done it forever but it still seems rather lame.

    This all happens on 'holodeck'.

    When the program ends you find yourself asking 'where is Sulu?'

    My guess is after we finish off the Iconians, the Ori will make their incursion aboard Imperial Star Destroyers under the command of Darth Deanna Troi, and we'll find out the reason all of the events in STO occurred was because Troi and Riker didn't get it on, which would have brought balance to the Force.

    Or something like that.

    With Special Guest Dr. Rodeny McKay!

    Troi and Riker married in Nemisis, I think.

    Edit - nothing.

    Which 1) from talking to his assistant in orbit BEFORE she mentions him doing things that were odd for him sounds like something the ambassador did before the switch, 2) Proves nothing as McCoy and Pulaski also did't trust it. Its also understandable considering how dangerous the thing can be.
    extremely emotional response to being denied access to P'Jem, equally emotional response to being granted access,

    So he could have Bendii Syndrome, Pon farr, what ever Tuvok was starting to get in Endgame, or stress.
    lets face it, it's well known Vulcans don't do emotions)

    Which is fanish nonsense, or else Vulcans wouldn't have a discipline for the total purging of emotions.
    it is worth at least scanning the bloke with internal sensors for any evidence of the Klingon's accusation.

    Yes becuase you should totally take an unproven accusation from a commander from and enemy nation who violates your space and whom your own boss mentioned would love to get their hands on a federation VIP. Especially given said nation's resurrecting the tendency to use the possibility of infiltration to justify invading and enslaving species.

    Not to mention that he pretty much is the one who starts the fight becuase you ask for proof of his claims. WHICH HE STILL DOES NOT GIVE.
    If Cryptic must include combat in the mission, they simply have to make it so the Klingons don't like the idea of A you handing the Undine to Starfleet Intelligence and B being asked to leave Federation space.

    Or you know becuase the Federation and Klingons were at war at the time and Klingon ships would fall under capture or destroy on site.
    If I had a military, I would rather my officers investigated such accusations and making a more informed decision than blindly following orders.

    So you would have them investigate a person based on some minor oddities that could be easily explained and the unproven word of their sworn enemy who isn't above lying their butts off to gety an advantage.

    There by wasting time while said enemy is detaining, maiming, and from the looks of it MURDERING the citizens your military supposed to protect.

    Or did you forget what the Klingons were doing on P'Jem.

    According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia, First Edition the only person to hold the rank of Fleet Admiral (in canon) is the Commander in Chief.

    While Fleet Admiral is the most senior of admiral ranks, it doesn't automatically make you the highest authority in an organisation. For example, in Star Trek VI both Admiral Cartwright and "Bill" were Fleet Admirals, and only one of them was the commander in chief.

    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    Pretty much as someone said it - just because I played it, it doesn't mean I consider it as part of my character's story.

    Heck, my character is still only a Captain in my eyes, and that's not gonna change, even if hell was to freeze over. Frankly, the biggest issue of the storyline is, that it tries to make us all so epic, that it gets old and boring really fast. Not even Picard was saving an entire universe in TNG all the time, and it'd be more Trek to solve more mundane problems from time to time as well...

    we fight them in the sphere ;)

    Yeah, that's where we START fighting them. OP said our character also personally ENDED the conflict against them, which as far as I can tell is still ongoing.

    If you have a military where your officers don't follow orders and hand over government officials to the enemy just because they tell them to, you do not have a military, you have a treasonous armed force. Because, seriously, without proof that's exactly what handing the Vulcan over to the Klingons (who're violating sovereign Federation territory no less) would be: TREASON.

    I always imagined my characters saying something like: "No, sorry, Mr. Klingon, I'm going to need some evidence that Mr. Vulcan is an Undine infiltrator. By the way, did you know you're violating Federation territory?"

    But that's basically what happens. You ask them for proof, this insults them and they attack.

    More or less. What's actually said is a little more generic and bland, though.
