1. Geko knows exactly what he's talking about, you, clearly do not... 6. Actually, that is rather the argument you were trying to make... The point was that people voted to have Romulans, Yes? That means their majority portrayal, not a one-off viewing of a bunch of left-wing agitators... They wound up being promoted to…

:D Anti-clone prejudice! That's all that is! :D I have to admit, I felt bad for dismissing Elisa, so I crafted a new one as an engineering BOFF, but when I actually looked at Elisa's native talents, and was told where I could recruit her again, I had to... She's actually a pretty good BOFF... By no means the best, or…

^^^^This... Tractor beams are so ludicrously easy to deal with, there's almost a sense of "Oh, do think that's bothering me? How quaint..." when they lock on :D With the Yorktown, many times, I don't even bother disabling them, because their effect on the ship is non-existent/negligible, compared to what the opponent is…

*Pushes Repeat on DVD* B)

As I said last time: Liz Flores (CloneBatch:EF-019284756) is a Mariposan clone, who became Cara's best friend after she (Cara) returned to the Academy after the hatching of her first child. Following the events at Vega Colony, she returned to the academy to retrain as an engineering officer. She wasn't happy when another…

I was almost starting to wonder if I'd got it confuzzled :D

I can see what you mean about it getting into crazy DPS, but I don't see get how it could be considered game-breaking, if that's how someone wants to push through the levels B) I definitely see what you mean about the science abilities being considered weapon abilities, like Feedback Pulse, because that really is a weapon…
-
Thanks for the tip B) I have to admit, I can't see an issue with someone boosting a ship to it's full potential if that's how they want to push through the levels and grinding :D I mean sure, if they're using it to gank n00bs in PvP, fair enough, that's not on, but if it's just for their own amusement in PvE, I can't see…

Fair enough, I just saw the 13:00 UTC, and thought 'It's gone that now... O_o' B)

Out of curiousity, why do you think it's a bad idea? Take my situation, with the PPM's for example: The Yorktown only has the two tactical slots, but the Valiant has four... Being able to add four copies of the same console, if they would stack up (straight math would be nice) that would be a pretty tasty boost to a…
-
That's also a good question... I don't mess with the doffs beyond getting them to make stuff, so I'd be interested to know as well B)

And this is the point I'm trying to make... Socialism does not = nartseeism Nationalism does not = nartseeism Communism does not = fascism The Federation's political climate, has many socialist and communist aspects... It also has nationalistic aspects... That Does Not automatically mean fascism or nartseeism are coming…
-
OP, you are going to sh*t when you hit Kobali Prime... ;)
-
As I said, the Federation has both socialist, and nationalist traits in it's political outlook... Nothing whatsoever, however, to do with nartseeism... Vegetarians don't eat meat, but that doesn't make them Vegans... Similar(ish) and some similar(ish) principles, but most definitely Not The Same things ;)
-
Thanks for the tip B)

I was going to say, if you want to re-skin an Akira to something a bit smaller, keep the hull and pylons as stock-Akira, but swap the nacelles and saucer for the one's for the Zephyr Class, but checking on the Ship Requisition, the Zephyr seems to have been removed :'( In keeping with the Akira/Alita convention, I had…

Obviously not you, Boss B)
-
Thanks B) I had a feeling the listed stats weren't telling the whole truth... In terms of performance, I made it through Revelations and Enemies in All the Usual Places without getting blown up and needing to respawn... Most stuff just fluctuates the shields a bit, the majority of the time, the hull might momentarily dip…

Discharge Picard and Riker, and put Jellico permanently in charge with Shelby as his XO... ;)
-
My main is an engineer, flying a science cruiser, which is set up as a polaron turret boat, with three tactical officers slotted... She may 'be an engineer', but she's certainly a very aggressive one... ;) :tongue:
-
Thank you B)

I'm referring to it (what the Federation has) as National Socialism, because of its intrinsically internalist nature... In Undiscovered Country, the Federation was accused of being 'a homo-sapiens only' club... From what canon has shown us, while there is representation from other Federation member-races, it's a largely…
-
I didn't say 'facism'... I'm not talking about facism... I'm talking about Socialism, specifically National Socialism (not the former German National Socialist Party) I'm talking about a political ideology; One which could be implemented in several ways other than what a former German ruler did... ;) Nothing to do with…
-
On a technically political level, the Federation is an idealized example of the tenets of national socialism (and communism) displayed in their most positive and beneficial extents... That doesn't mean, however, that the Feds are Na5is... The Feds are no more Na5is, than vegetarians are Vegans... ;)
-
I wouldn't go so far as to call Star Trek propoganda, but I would say that there are characters within the narrative who could be considered as denialists/self-deceivers who actually believe that Starfleet isn't a millitary, and who claim that it isn't, to try and claim a moral high-ground... This would explain the…

I was going to lootsalvage the stuff from the Obelisk Carrier... Worf said it was okay :D
-
Thanks B) I've been using a Kool-Aid build on my (well, everything really, but primarilyh) heavily modified Yorktown, meaning I only have the slots for two tactical consoles... I've just salvaged some torpedoes from an unfortunate Vaadwaur, and flipped in a Warhead Yield Chamber just for the sake of efficiency during the…

This is exactly what I did/do: Stay as close to the mouth as possible, come round in front after it fires to launch the torpedo, then move back out of the firing range ASAFP B)
