Well, not MY death, but I would beam in Romulan Reinforcements on Nukara Prime. They kept bursting into flames! Took a few more time to figure out why... :confused:
Three things come to mind: budget, CBS approval, and the need for extensive internal play testing to anticipate every possible thing that could go wrong with the ships/weapons/etc. already in the game. And they still come in over budget, don't get CBS approval, and have things go wrong with unexpected interactions.
