But that's after Taris. Look, I'm not confused. I already know how this all fits together. I'm talking about the narrative that emerges from playing through the missions, in order, as they exist right now. Oh, and I meant that in this playthrough, the Iconians haven't been mentioned prior to Taris. They were of course…
-
Maybe I wasn't clear. This doesn't really bother me that much; I'm not complaining here. I'm just pointing it out, and wondering if anyone else had noticed.
-
Uhm. Yeah, I have no idea what an Admiralty system is. I guess I'd better look that up. I mean, I'd seen it mentioned during my recent research, but.
-
Well. This community is being more positive than I remember. :) Anyway yeah I'm like level...fifty-two or something?
-
Sorry, but I had to weigh in on this. TNG is not the original Star Trek, in case there was some confusion. Which makes that comic...kind of atrocious.
-
Say what you will about Enterprise, but it's loads better than the franchise-defiling dreck that was TNG. Voyager was probably worse, objectively speaking; it's just pretty mediocre television. But people worship TNG for some reason, which makes me hate it more. TOS and DS9, of course, are the top tier.
-
I maintain that it was Osgood's Zygon counterpart that was disintegrated. I just don't see them neglecting to make use of that particular plot point from Day. Either that, or Osgood will return as her Zygon counterpart... Now that I think about it, a Dalek companion would be awesome, although it'd be incredibly tricky to…
-
Er...is it just me, or are there a lot of "check out this article" threads lately? I hope this doesn't become a trend...
-
Russel T. Davies. Oh wait he's already gone. Seriously, Moffat has his issues, I guess, but...Day of the Doctor proved that Billie Piper and David Tennant can both be completely brilliant, just not when written by RTD. Eh, prolly Clara. Not because I don't like her, but because it's probably time for a new companion. Not…
-
Oh, is this toaster me? I'm not haunted, exactly, but I do make everyone who talks about me do so in the first person.
-
DS9 involves an interstellar war, whereas VOY is the only Trek series worse than TNG, just due to its sheer pointlessness. Yeah, DS9 wins.
-
Yeah the Federation totally uses money. The whole "lolz we don't know how economics work" thing is just something they say to be pretentious.
-
Their invasion was halted. Not really a defeat. Plus, being a superior lifeform doesn't mean a whole lot in an interstellar war. There were a lot of other factors involved. But an unarmed Changeling versus an unarmed human? Yeah, the Changeling's gonna win.
-
I had this whole thing planned out involving luring a stupidly huge Borg fleet to (presumably reclaimed) Iconia with an Omega molecule, having the Borg keep the Iconians semi-occupied, and blowing up the planet with said Omega molecule. But the Dyson sphere mass-producing the things kinda throws that under the bus. And at…
-
I dunno...what would be the point? They're useful in SW mainly due to the fact that the people using them are psychic monks, and because of how blasters work -- relatively short range, inaccurate, and deflect-able.
-
My conclusion tends to be that the Founders, while extremists, are pretty much correct. Solids are dicks. Look, the Federation is run by and consists almost entirely of humans. I don't care if it has pointed ears or antennae or a paintjob. If it's an actor with makeup, it's a human, regardless of what you call it. End of…

THREAD SUCCESSFULLY REZZED Looks like the necromancer used Dead Thrall to make sure it wouldn't die... Also, wow! There was a time when people weren't constantly screaming about doom? Really? I mean, the OP does seem pretty resentful, but still. I didn't realize this playerbase had ever not been as terrible as it is now.
-
Klingons. And that's comprehensive. Klingons shouldn't be in anything.
-
Blast furnace? Nah. Spectra are produced by the Pegasus Device. *DUN DUN DA DUN DUN*
-
What, seriously? Haven't seen that episode. Is that really the plot? Phaser it apart. Don't even waste a torpedo. Granted, you'd have to spend some time cutting it down to small enough bits to disintegrate in the atmosphere, because a blown-up asteroid is just lots of little asteroids, but...yeah. Idiot plot much?
-
this thread though
-
Looked at them, yeah. My concern was that the events of the episodes don't seem to actually come from STO -- at least, not all of them. Sorry about my original post, incidentally. Probably came across as a bit rude.
-
Put your tactical and communications officers in charge of the ship. They're the only competent people on board. Other than that, you'll have to rely on good writing. Hope that you got the last two seasons.
-
CLASSIC PHASERS ARE NOT ORANGE THEY ARE BLUE GET IT RIGHT With that out of the way. Absolutely not an Intrepid-class. Fifty-year-old starships shouldn't even be in regular service, not on the front lines of multiple wars. Bellerophon class? Maybe. But honestly, I'm thinking an escort-type would be best. Maybe a Prometheus…
-
Threshold was stupid, but it doesn't come close to deserving its status as horrible. There are far, far worse episodes. "Let He Who Is Without Sin..." and "Unexpected" come to mind. The thing about Enterprise was that, other than "These Are The Voyages...", most of the run from the second half of Season 3 to the end was…
-
John Harrison just plain wasn't Khan. He was a good character -- probably on par with Khan -- but he was a pragmatist, not an egotist, and he was barely even evil to begin with. Khan was never cold and logical. Come on, he was Captain Ahab. What they should have done was made Marcus the primary villain. Have the crew team…
-
Oh, good. Someone mentioned the Reality Bomb. Yeah, that's...well, it implies that either the multiverse theory proper is nonsense, or the destruction of reality itself is completely impossible. I tend to be of the persuasion that reality runs mainly on thought, and that we exist in a universe-based hierarchy. (With "our…
-
Yep...uh...sorry, too tired to post another wall of text right now. Maybe tomorrow I'll put up a detailed, flawlessly-thought-out response to every one of your posts. Well, detailed, anyway.
-
In this universe? What? God, i.e. the Christian God (the definition of a god basically boils down to "anything more powerful than me", so I feel the need to specify), almost certainly exists outside of all possible universes, since He would have created all of them to begin with. I mean, it's pretty clear He exists outside…
-
They provide a good analogy for the Borg. Incredibly stupid villains who are nonetheless a threat because of powerful technology they got from somebody else. (Presumably the original species that turned itself into the Borg, in that case.) They're not as overused as the Klingons? I guess? Strangely, they don't annoy me as…
