    First normal rang of fire that is 190,000km (photon torpedoes)~150,000km (phasers) according to Star Trek TNG "The Wounded" it if you do not believe me watch it. This is normal fire range for Nebula class starships. USS Enterprise may will have long fire range we do not know. So 150,000 km would suicide range for using main defector dish on USS Enterprise D. Meaning also when USS Enterprise fire that weapon best both world they would have been out of rang of major blasted.

     

     

     

    First of all, the Enterprise IS NOT a Nebula Class ship. This means that standard firing range will likely not be the same. Second point, this still says nothing about the current situation. Give information from the episode in question, you know, because then the information you give will actually be relevant.

    Federation starships the able to fire at range of 40,000 km away from it target according to range TNG A Matter of honor. Check scripe did not believe me.

     

     

     

    The capable range of fire is irrelevant. What is relevant, in this situation, in the distance of the Enterprise from the Borg cube. That 80, 000 km number is complete bullshit, unless you show evidence from the script, of the best of both worlds, that the blast would engulf the Enterprise from 80, 000 kms away.

    These lines scripe star terk best of both worlds part when they about talk using the main Deflector dish weapons.

    Unfortunately, there is one slight

    But if we could get far enough

    It could work. In the meantime,

     

    we should retune all phasers,

     

    including hand units, to the same

     

    frequency.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Even if we are to agree that a Star Destroyer can withstand 1000 photon torpedoes before lose shields. UFP normal fire rang we have to guess what Shelby means by being to close. Saying blast 80,000km away would have to hit USS Enterprise-D with a force greater then 30 megatons that only star destoryer.net accord pro Star trek sites rang would be even greater. Also Star Destoryer no have all it shields to hold of this kind fire power as less 25 percent Star Destoryer would got hit by this weapon.

     

     

     

    Okay, I don't even know what the fuck you just said. We do need to be able to understand your arguments in order to reply, you know. Having said that, where the hell did you get that 80, 000 km number? It's just a random number used to skew the numbers in your favor, isn't it? I'm kind of sorry that I defended you... The quote you have provided is useless without knowing, at the very least, the current distance of the Enterprise to the Borg cube, and the Enterprise's maximum shield capacity. If we wanted to figure potential damage to an sd, we would need much more info than that. Please, show some actual evidence.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Praeothmin, I thought it was a better argument only because it was from a canon source as opposed to Darth Chimera's semi-canon, at best, source material.

    Calculations and proof, please?

     

    If you do not have them, then your assertion is no better then Darth Chimera's... rolleyes.gif

     

     

     

    It is a little better. I do remember something about the deflector dish magnifying the power of phasers against the borg. I'll see if I can find the quote.

    Please, Darth Chimera, do us all a favor and back up your claims, or kindly stfu. You make all warsies look bad.

     

     

     

     

     

    EU is not 100% canon. Lucas himself has been quoted as saying that he sees it as another universe, meaning that its level of canon is lower than that of the movies. It is still considered to be part of continuity, as long as it does not contradict anything shown in the movies, though. It would just be on a lower level.

     

     

     

    Now, the ICS does, in some instances, seem to contradict the visuals from the movies, which, considering current canon policy, would make the ICS number non-canon.

    I think it's at least 6 or 7 years since I posted to the Usenet board.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I've now found my way back thanks to a posting on a board I've been on for a couple of years called Wordforge.net

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I'm no longer really that "into" either star trek or star wars, but as soon as I saw the link to this board and realised what it was, I knew I had to sign up, if only for old times sake.</div></div>

     

     

     

    Is it bad that the first thing that pops into my mind is "Dumbledore's Army"?

    Wow, I thought I was the only one. Skins is a British show. Third season just finished up, but it's all about the first two seasons. Only a total of 19 episodes, so it's not that big of an investment. Brilliant show. Generally a teenage girl type of thing, though.

     

     

     

    It's on the BBC America. You should check it out.

    I've watched Sex and the City before. Wasn't putrid, but definitely not my cup of tea.</div></div>What's the story behind that anyway, how did you get into Gilmore Girls.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    For me and Sex and the City, well I already had HBO and it was around the time the movie came out (I did not see the movie in theaters) I figured I'd watch a couple of episodes to see what the big deal is. I never really found women led comedies to be that funny because they never focus too much on getting the laughs (at least from what I noticed), but it was funny enough (though its no Eastbound and Down or Hung) and interesting enough for me to keep watching. And then one time when I had the house to myself, I watched the movie (my mom already had it on DVD).

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Please don't take away my man card.</div></div>

     

     

     

    Simple. I was like fourteen or so when it first came out(several years ago), my mom was watching it, and I found Alexis Bledel attractive. I watched a few episodes and actually liked the humor, so I began to watch it with a certain regularity. I'll still watch it from time to time, even though the finale aired a couple years ago.

     

     

     

     

     

    Man, I'm the last person who has the authority to revoke man cards. Trust me.
