Surpising we see tons of militery equement never used in either Star Trek espidoes came ground force during DS9

Recommended Posts

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.

It's also possible that they just didn't have the budget - or really, the need - to show ground combat vehicles that much until DS9.

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.
