  1. First and must important has been reason to see them in action. The answer is no not even Deep Space Nine. Facts weapon gun point turn even Runabout to piece scrap metal. Nor Battle to the strong all it other one minor part was inside field hospital had no reason have vehicle like that since Klingon think nothing blow to bit medical vehicle. With we see Star Trek Deep Nine Business as . Independent arm sales sell weapon turn must combat vehicle scrap metal. So the answer is no if Basher try vehicle simple turn himself into nice big target. Siege ARp-588 is again the answer no. Strong evidence that the UFP using mortars though why Jem Harder jamming UFP sensor so. Mines kill unlucky UFP soldiers. In practice also been threat Jem Harder themselves. Terrinian simple made useable or they had all destroyed. Why disagree Star War fans likely argue combat design vehicle I have disagree follow reason. First for a we know it has forward fire gun or not. Wolf weapon itself conceal unless plan using it reason to assume it might also been conceal. Then of course left we stander combat vehicle and anti armed weapons. It might also been design around idea running retreat simple fact no real risk ambush and the level fire power deliver might come handy. Design help hold area for enough time for Hopper to arrive able get them out fast enough.
  2. Real no case ground combat vechile would useful in either DS9 Siege-Ar-588 or Nor Battle to the Strong. Nor Battle ot the strong we talk field hospital almost entire show other when try get Dr. Basher might any gone foot any number reasons. First would Hospital any reason vehicle answer is no. They know Runabout that distance it is also war-zone. Klingon see medical vehicle fair game something like that moving across field just another target. Simple the type weapon they used Star Trek vechile tough enough live long. The Runabout turn to dust. Siege- Ar-558 again the same problems. Not least one part were make sense.
  3. Possible ways of explain it 1. Two episodes that saw ground combat Nor battle to the Strong and Siege -AR-588. Will as far Nor battle to the strong goes saw UFP foot soldier once involve combat in that case try protect help medical personal and wounded and other civilian get out if had us stronger then a phaser rifle would risk bury them all alive not goal. What about Siege-Ar-588 see two TNG shows and one TNG movie using mobile force fields. We see voyager talk about in Star Trek TNG using hand granades. Did not even provide enough battle packs able hold on with face UFP soldier turn type 1 phaser because type three phaser ran out power. First possible Star War fans like point out lack heavy weapons. If they had something like heavy machine gun. They could turn into chock point. Problem logic first place force fields and using the place hiding behind us phaser rife as way keep bay. Able to hold line easily. Have everyone location so find phyiscial impossible break though simple phaser rifle mobile force fields in place every at forten rather two lines of defense simple stop phaser fire combine force field prevent the UFP soldier hit. Second possible UFP force someways greatly weaken during the five month period single likely mine take one or two specialist train use mortars. For reason put other Post they want set chock point first place. In theory wipe out entire Colomes worth of Jem harder combine with scouts. Third possibleity they simple Star Trek writens want to make look interesting see motars bring Jem Harder force knees does look they want good final showdown.
  4. The reason did in the past was simple lot what never happen in Modern day example. First cell phones. Knowledge something this lose happen little sooner. Stuff the hospitial would evacation before thing so out hand. National Guard would over power so easily the commander leave his vehicle would been lot more those Aliens slaughter. Very possible the civilian population or handful survival would hid behind the National Guard. Bigger question is would US government nuke the place. First why did they do it. Two possibility first afraid people be infect risky at best try rescue the people. Another possibility they need to us them as bait to try keep Aliens there wipe all them out. Option doing both include us helicopter to pick up then drop the bomb simple not option. Today it is a option they vehicle take like Helicopter fly like planes so they could. Must of the movie still happen people died mystically untl people caught wind of the Aliens. Hospotl evacuation entirely. Here comes the tricky part what military reason. The US National Guard able to supplied good amount fire support more importantly not need leave vehicle to do far vehicle weapon go. People left no realistic choice weight for the airlift that government so promise. National Guard control over the combat vehicle. If they using them for bait they able evocation them more or less safety. If they were not using bait try make sure spread people infected. They nuked it just same with the National Guardsmen. Been no survivalers
  5. On planet Imperial Gaurd just colonize one Colonist infect fachugger before the problem spill out control. Entire colony something like 150 people unknown number children. The Imperial Man verse such colony somewere between 205 adult include 50 people police force 500 and 1,000 children. Another 5 people be send Imperial guard fight for them. One possible Police armed will enough able to weapon least kill these things. Other possible is something 10 guns to 20 guns available face it off. Police vehicle provide air support. First the Imperial Men who said entire get out control first place they bad enough might even kill the personal infect not get off him out right. One case brutal save lot lives Second possible it is possible able to hold on. Until help arrive likely clean mess themselves. Colony likely security fence weapon not up task at hand. How big force would they need over run 156 colonist maybe another 156 children on top guess every person marry. Aliens much stronger best sense going on around them. Of course 20 enough in practice guard the communication system so the human call for help go enforce. Include some self sacrificing break though defense. Police force weapon likley up to task armed laser guns. Even not still armory were training weapon just powerful likelihood as Imperial guard men guns. Third possible colony fall just the same Imperial Guard never show up. Police force fail simple having great number weapon task does insure anything might have enough end of the day.

    Borg vs. Scrin

    We left with two problem first we nothing about the Scrin space combat ables and we know nothing about Borg ground combat ables. All likehood both would applied any conflict. Who wins the space battle likehood win the ground battle. Since the Borg Spares and Borg scout ships would do the job air support. Scrin air force little match for them one way or other. THe same goes for ground vechile. If Borg could assimlate them the say thing. If Scrin space force able blast borg Cube to space dust then I put my bet on the Scrin.
  7. First question why leave open spot like first place unless USS Defiant did not have photon torpedoes destroy spot only one path Jem Harder go though it that case made sense Defiant just open fire. However this over simplified the case battle AR-588 and Sisko decide take last stand. Have been tactic reason why UFP left space open first place. Real question what if Jem harder try cross another root clime over the areas and then clime down. Sisko and his men no way know were come no realistic denied Jem Harder reason on it own right to use heavy automatic weapons. Sisko want to turn area into choke point he could just used mines do just go Jem Harder charge though area rather having go lots of movements as way lower numbers.
  8. What is the Empire biggest strongth size and the amount resource they can bring down to bear. What UFP strength effective come use resource. UFP replication photon torpedoes like no tomorrow long have raw resource is kind done in seconds. In Star Trek DS9 Valiant talk hit the Jem harder warship with one photon toropode mean take out all target sensors. Defiant class warship fire something like 4 photon torpedoes and no talk try hit distance and fire four them at it each carry the same yield all sensors in them. Two possible even crew and entire death wish aiming to get themselves killed or each photon torpedoes deliver 4 time the yield without target sensor in it . This means talk over 4 time yield if did target sensors in them. ISD big so again so we talk now about 250 launchers just 100 more then enough. One shoot there goes ISD. Now of course going top speed and help computer they be impossible hit to no time response. In more likey ISD withstand maybe 20 photon torpedoes with out target sensors. Shield work still need upgrade not give Star War Empire fighting chance. Since order for UFP take few if any loses.
  9. Ok those germs able effect Caption Long term memory. How long Caption Archer practice on duty for 8 hour shift at must. First Vuclan mind-meld. He could gone though one those every 3 hour or so. Of course Vulcan not interest send ship though expanse.T,pol could learn it might hard for her to learn. T'pol melt with another crew next season. She own Archer her life it not to much to ask for or was it.For that matter with Vuclan mind-meld they could just easily gave another body and brain with cloning technology they had. Of course Andrions also had race telepathic able up to task. Second tech solution Argue human brain is the must advance from of engineering. How advance cybernetic technology was is question 22 century Starfleet. Try cycle around the problem all together. Question Borg techology found could use or not question.
  10. Will so do believe technology existed storing Archer memory with Vuclan mind-mild make clone Archer replace brain. We saw make clone Trip. Of course cybernetic alternative all likelihood availbale what possible answer. First tactic was risky question value such tactic put question. How long take T'pol learn Vulcan mind-mild. We know 8 espidoes the fact she had reason to have us it then. Hard to tell how long took her real learn the skill no evidence reason for it either. Possible reason 1. T'pol find Vuclan mind-meld fun. Problem this one She old Archer big very big. That hardly reason all. 2. Possible number 2 is that T,pol find record how to do this. Again she know who to contact she try start learning. 3. Written need Enterprise fail mind meld ruin it or at least remover responsibility from Caption Archer. Might also been time issue need Earth blow to space dust as will. This be number mistake include fail send another ship to take place Enterprise just any starship starfleet faster then warp 1 even cargo ship gone fast starship warp 3 must likely had starship go warp 4 possible fast as warp 4.9 at must. Fact Starfleet deploy another ship to take into account. No answer for that either. Leave only realistic answer did blame Archer for Earth destroy did quick find the system. If did that it would been the case.
  11. Terran Rebel basic Defiant class warship and one Deep Space Nine 2 fighers. Someways worst off the Rebel Alliance which squadron to spare the Terran Rebel have that. First how much good is the Death star blue print going to do them. First two fighter go shake up main guns eliminating turblasters that turn shield chock point Rebel fighter hit right place destroy good number them. Star War weapon seem run heat order to hit target. We saw when Bodyhunter try to hit Jedi fighter fight heat sneaking missile. Starfleet shield make bad joke turn shield scatter it away. Then Defiant class come to us main defector dish to blow that Death star to space dust.
  12. How are Terran Rebel otherwise supposed take out the Death star. They can not do trench run photon torpedoes simple did not have turn rate need.They have Defaint class warship and lack photon torpedoes require. If they had Galaxy class ,Nebula or just about any starship but the Defaint class warship they able just stone the Death star to death photon torpedoes. Single Galaxy starship need at least could fire something like 20 photon torpedoes at the Death star per second. if she had unlimit amount to spare 10 minute amount time took for the Death star reach Rebel base fire something like 12,000 at the Death star itself. Fire were shield might likely be more then enough destroy the Death star. Problem Terran Rebel did have Galaxy class starship nor did they have number photon torpedoes they need. So going have use main defector dish way destroy Death star.
  13. First lot agency in Star Trek Enterprise became founding members that had very simlier if identical to MACO .Effectiveness of this question Starfleet also does allow discrimination when come to join agency of it. Either all or none of them survival short after UFP form. Kind like suggestion that USA each states able to keep special force all do the same job. Strong evidence UFP mix rank system combine all the agency. Burk nearly kill Jake single hand he basic dying he was practice fatal wound. Something MACO might or might not able do he or she the same shape as Burk. One could argue he might been MACO. We know his name but not his rank. Only think were uniform had effective hand to hand combat. Everything else almost up to guess work. He had a phaser rifle near him it guess work used or near him by chance. Even if did know use effective question the side arm normal used. After all phaser rifle type three has advance as disadvantage LT Rose was part of doing commando mission to gathering information about Maquis what she able to limit level provide basic information that she on caft or so unable provide communication to starfleet but she able tell Pircard her hold fire. She real show real moves made different stander Starfleet officers could have not done. Like UFP plan using code break skills same skill easily been used to hit run attack against enemy base behind enemies line blow thing up. Might part reason send Wolf in Chain of Command I to help mission simple Klingon look forward to dying battle he might likely had similar type training to that kind mission. Borg Cube itself slow down greatly and Borg start care about boarding parties after battle Wolf 359. No way explain Borg start care Board parties the UFP beam Borg Cubes kill dividend drones tons time. Also very few ways of explain why we have some Borg battle Wolf 359 involved in Star Trek Voyager on different espidoes happen free collectives. Fact Borg Cube slow down lot more see before. However good blow into space during the battle of wolf 359 as commando team kept fighting even after fleet was destroyed. Leave long number Borg drones in space. You only need Star Trek Enterprise Regeneration to understand been pick possible another Borg ship either chance or so on and then brought back collective. Again commandos special train doing damage enemies starship. MACO know how to us expansive but Trip show us need to expansive make thing go bang. Commandos know how minor chance know turn parts of the ship into explosives or use equipment able to get area that blow sky high. MACO from what know about lack engineer training or equipment effective fight on starship cause the must damage and have limit the same time. Suggestion UFP used specail force like MACO but more train design to fight on starship not on planet surface were MACO strongest.
  14. What was USS Enterprise D in practice flag ship exploration. Say that USS Enterprise D must powerful ship in fleet no evidence to back this when come military strength alone. With the way shields are design it means shield provide maximum protect warp nessal. Only place way Star Trek shields work from sides. Star Trek wound fact Nebula-class starship was destroy without shields speak for itself Cardassion like unable hit the ship nessal. He like made nessal simple not target pick. Nebula class starship also has long range come to firing. So one might ask why UFP build more galaxy class starship during Deep Space Nine. Safe as ship in general came to combat fact Dominion Jem Harder attack fighter destroy Galaxy class starship during Dominion first contact UFP ramming her. Rather then destroy with there weapon hit warp nessals over came design problem older models. Galaxy class starship carry more troops. Again Tal Yar talk about the USS Enterprise D able carry 6,000 soldiers combine normal size crew Galaxy class starship Yesterday Enterprise timeline. No reason not be the case normal timeline will. UFP will also value able having ship both transport troops and effective fighting machine Dominion call for both.
  15. I could think 4 possible reason I interest other ideas 1. Neither Vuclan nor Andrions will risk fight the Xindi after destroy Earth. Include provide escort for convories this first and must important answer distress call on top of that willing to take Caption Archer back with T'pol mistake on T'pol part not accept offer that another story since never found human bases first place. 2. Both sides fought war did not have the ships to spare this Vuclan answer distress call rule out this possible. Even this might true early on when possible war between two them. 3. Vuclan want get pull to deeply in. Send in escorts would risk pull more and more so in put have guard the human colony itself. Idea might draw line decide line going draw help the human out goes fact willing to answer distress call. Also likely human colony send distress call the Vulcan would also answered. It even human last colony send distress call allies when attack hoping help. It very possible Vuclan fleet on it way or Andrion fleet or both. 4. Now of course real reason might authors after all let say Vuclan provide escort for human colony ships. Not had the last escort of the human fleet arrive there. Vuclan power either two groups Xindi attack human last stand any the Xindi ships. Of course even here the Auther little more creative that another story.
  16. While might think human stuck with Earth solar system . Was free enterprise going on civilian ship able to go faster then NX Enterprise. How Vulcan realistic able stop human get warp technology elsewhere or buy faster cargo ships . Three possible I could think of First and must important they need to now possible trade partners. Question amount information they had available about them. That until Enterprise was deploy. Very possible starfleet contact few races simple know one think buy. Second problem might be the simple issues cost ship practice terms. The amount charge starfleet likley high possible above military what the wing could possible afford. If supplied found after NX Enterprise deploy the military wing might found not worth while either. After NX Enterprise was deploy logic do so want down hill. Cargo ship that go 1 warp faster then NX Enterprise may simple not worth while able to afford 2 starships for price offer sell. Third reason at least military wing maintenance simple keep in service been able to do so as will. Of course civilian left people not want to change.
  17. Once the Human build warp five engine not stop the human give every ship fleet warp five engine come power generation. Vuclan nothing do with stop the Starfleet doing it. Fairness cargo ships equement warp 3 and more powerful warp drives. Possible even warp four drive some cases. Starfleet militery like use all warp 4 drives as will.
  18. First and must importnat remember it protype means that warp five engine. NX Enterpise did not test the top speed until they had to. UFP want more testing time. Talk about give next generation of cargo ships warp five drive partly back this claim. Secound only advance the warp five drive offer was speed it did not generation more power then warp 4 drive. This back fact that in thoery NX Enterpise could gone up to warp 6.5 by some minor changes to the warp drive itself. Only other piece of evindece that that Star Trek Twlight were at least one Reptilian ship had been destory off screen. Fact decide send two the ship attack Intrepid. That one Xindi starship destory on screen. Other last fact Xindi board party only 4 soldiers. If starfleet officer not injured the team get wipe out. Since fire broke out between three engineer crew members and took cover able hold at bay until MACO finish off the job. Things could turn out the other way. Even evidence Intrepid class starship more power warship then NX class. Last possible is more simple one engine it is is expensive to build lot cheaper longer starship warp four engine. This reason I came up with like here some others reasons though.
  19. No interest debate Dominion war in Yesterday Enteprise timeline either case still would happen even UFP lost remember both Star Trek Undiscovery country and Star Trek Deep Space Nine interest terrioiries UFP control not interest conquest entire UFP. Who won another debate.
  20. Ship used to portal protect Earth convey ships not design have must power to defense systems. They doing long range mission NX Enterprise. We saw the NX Enterprise be able to deliver set phaser to overload able blast right though shields of enemy starship slight enemy. I can think of three possible 1. NX Enterprise generation lot more power then any other starships order get up to warp 5 drive. First civilian starship using a warp 3 drives. Military at least had warp three drive. NX Enterprise will able to produce something like little less 10 times the power that warp three drive produce. Problem this theory first each phaser cannon fire times design for 10 times. NX Enterprise did not have power issues. Even was power issue still explain for simple reason. Matter more that get though shields then amount phaser cannons one can fire at a time. 2. The amount power it require to be transformed to phaser cannons. Again we can practice terms control that type power today at least thoery Orion proct run H bombs require able control more power fact did do today mean can not. Talk control Fussiah give power of H bomb it little sense do the research if we could control the power it out getting overload. Yes likley require upgrade power systems power relays. That another story not something to hard to do. 3.They already doing it but ships so action expansive were not upgrade yet.Very possible starfleet comamnd was more or less take it time. Depend number shipyard have available everything else. I be interest other possible reasons
  21. We saw the toropodes glow in Star Trek Enterprise have must likely do with shields how did not put ships shields.\ Reasons I could come up with. Shields stop phaser shoot half the time make different between likely it it target. The starship protect system have work all time and hull planting just more reliable shields all lot lighter then armor. This not explain why once had work force field could provide protect for starship not used. Another possible is that was used near the hall make hall plating even more effective. May simple fact at the time shields such better hull plating.
  22. Forgive me it might matter. If UFP losing or Section 31 boi attack Klingon Empire then not matter. UFP few years to rebuild the Klingon Empire get all territories they want when came Star Trek Undiscovered country and Deep Space Nine Klingon and UFP wars. If I am right be no Dominion Wars. Reason UFP likely lose over confident of themselves. UFP start to build up military warship something 15 years or so Tal Yar term Enterprise first Galaxy class warship. Means UFP build other warship like Defiant class warship UFP get one month by the time USS Enterprise D want into service UFP might had smell fleet worth of them. USS Enterprise D galaxy class warship still Galaxy class means hit warp nacelle risk warp core break. Like what we saw in Star Trek Yesterday Enterprise. UFP would design ship design over come both problem least in theory. UFP build starship two warp drives to power them deliver unforgiven blow part which keep fire phaser take BOP. Such a starship take as long as 2 years even after she enter service. Three reason why she would first saw full wrath in Battle Archer IV. First is UFP give starship obligation to protect Earth solar system for a while. Another possible is that Archer IV she in wrong place wrong time or Klingon Empire might had fears avoid fighting her. Battle Archer IV for practice may high goal mind destroy shipyard worth see tough that ship real was. O So order for this happen have be when it happen normal timeline or close to it you need UFP lose or Section 31 deploy boi attack. Or Borg convince both-side better allies deal them first. However any case Defiant class warship shield something like double on USS Defiant and it weapon well be double punch deliver. USS Defiant able take on `12 on in normal timeline the Yesterday Enterprise Defiant able take 24 possible to 50. This would mean Dominion good day able to maintain 24 for Jem Harder attack ship every Defiant class warship. Dominion entire force something 30,000 strong. UFP something like 7 years to build fleet number that normal timeline the amount deliver in fire power other factor. On other hand the UFP need fleet bigger thousand or so starships. For that matter UFP might able successful only 500 starships. UFP in Defiant class alone likely had thousand or so see Terrian Rebal able build Defaint class starship six months about. It like take month per Defiant class they likely 10 shipyard build them they meet 700 Defiant class warship by time Dominion war started. Galaxy class starship 1 every six months means UFP have something time Dominion war start another 24. Of course 3 shipyards to build more like hundred. If Klingon allies UFP the Dominion raise white flag guess dare start war first place. Even UFP by itself might successful rage war defeat depend danger Defiant class warship real is.
  23. Either case get back subject Defiant class starship normal timeline can take on something like 12 Jem Harder fighters by herself. In Yesterday Enterprise timeline UFP shield nearly twice as strong. So Defiant class starship had Yesterday Enterprise shielding they could take by her self something like 24 Jem Harder attack ships. It real does not matter UFP winning or losing since end of day winning side and losing side would left with territories changing left honor of rebuild cripple fleets. Klingon Empire in both Star Trek Undiscovered country and in Star Trek Deep Space nine both case Klingon interest territories in UFP not aiming control entire UFP. Value losing or winning big must to do sizes not much more. Dominion top that would had trouble not even give none sense Klingon Empire has more resource then the Dominion. While theory explain Pircard statement Yesterday Enterprise Caption it real does not does matter and UFP winning it real does not matter which has to do Riker statement it real does not matter. End of the day winning with losing have the funning having to rebuild fleet. Some territories exchange hands.
  24. To make simple depend Pokemon some make quick work Aliens and even the might Predators other setting dunks to slaughtered. Some able to to make Predators and Aliens work on strings or real powerful once.
  25. FInal little girls think somewhat worth put Predators show off. After all My little Pony not all them weak per say. One remember right can teleport one area to another and some they can even fly. I still put my bet on Aliens and Predators.
