Just for fun story to accompany the submission (spoilers):
"Intel Science Specialist Commander Nenomy uses her superior seductive traits to break from the chain of command of her Dahar Master, separating herself from the away team and boarding parties led by Lieutenant Tullek, to push deeper into the Iconian Flagship.
With fewer humanoid lifesign readings around her, she's able to slip by the waves of Constructs who don't seem to take interest in her, and proceeds to what appears to be the unimatrix shield junction of the ship, the vital component that was disabled by the Klingon's Kortar class impact. Whichever repair team gets sent here no doubt will be one that is vital to the ship's operations. Neutralizing them, or even slowing them down, will go a long way in taking over the ship.
This is a standard Orion pirate tactic, something Klingon commanders find dishonorable. Luckily for Nenomy, she's no Klingon, and her subordinate role is deliberately chosen to influence and control her superiors without their knowledge.
As she waits for her target in a dark corner of the ship, pondering on the predicament of using manipulation strategies just like the Iconians, a gate opens, and a hovering figure gracefully glides out.
M'Tara, and her hand seal of summoning.
In a moment of panic, unable to distinguish prize from ill fortune, she betrays her cover and pulls out her disruptor assault rifle. Waves of Thralls shadow a Defiler, who all materializing before her in the blink of an eye not quite fast enough to catch the barrage of rounds unleashed towards her. M'Tara's energy glow appears fainter than Nenomi remembers..."
Retreat "I don't like the idea of running, but there is no honor in dying a senseless death. Turn the ship around and get us out of the battlezone. Today we shall live to fight again tomorrow. Sto'Vo'Kor will have to wait a little longer."

It needs

to embed pictures into a post. Don't worry about resizing them, the forum does that for you, and you can click the image for the original size too, as it also links to it.
As for everyone else - good to see the entries rolling in. There's still time left, so keep posting your awesome pictures - just remember, it has to do with Iconian war & only one entry per person!

Risa is burning. The Harbinger of M'Tara led a Herald assault and set the old island aflame. Now my officers and I return the favor!

Poor Harbinger, only visiting Risa now when all the fun is over, just wanting to relax and forget about the War and those pesky Starfleet officers have to bug it.

I will not sacrifice my ship. I've made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They invade our space, and we fall back. They destroy entire worlds, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far, no further! I will grow a beard, and make them pay for what they've done...

Never cared for Cardies, personally, but this image makes me want the see them either get there own faction or return as villains to be reckoned with.

Especially Cardassians who have only one good eye and don't want to lose the other one.

It has noting to do with the moment, but in my mind seems relevant some how. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
