>This is a crew comprised of original characters. I'm probably 4634879% more invested in them than anyone else will be, but I still want to share. These women represent the first-ever all-female chief staff in Starfleet history. From left to right;

>Charlotte Sweet, CMO
She's 36 years old, and has been a practicing doctor for the last ten years. She was good friends with Joanna McCoy all through college - they were roommates the whole time. Everybody onboard calls her "Sweetie" because of her last name. She's a delightful and cheerful woman, right up until you get on her bad side and start questioning her authority as a doctor. Then the "tough-love" country mama comes out in her and she'll kick your butt with love.

>Maureen Breslin, CSO
At 30 years old, Maureen is a strong-willed transsexual full-blooded feminist. She's very proud of every step that has taken her towards her goal of being Chief Science Officer aboard the USS Enterprise. She is incredibly proud of her role in becoming part of the first all-female chief staff. If she had not fought for her position as Science Officer, they would have had a male officer in her place. She's single-handedly responsible for sealing their crew in history for all time as the first-ever female head crew, and she will never let you forget it.

>T'Androma Spock-Uhura, CL
32 years later and her parents never did decide on a last name. Hyphenated was the way to go. Her mother taught her how to speak 12 languages before she even started college, where she perfect 6 more. She has a degree in languages, and her mother couldn't be happier - but her dream is to be a navigator instead. Being quarter-Vulcan, she's significantly more ruled by her emotions than her father, but she tries her hardest to remain true to her Vulcan ancestry. She was best friends with the captain for the first 5 years of their lives, before she moved to New Vulcan with her parents. 25 years later, and she heard that her old friend is "inheriting" the ship from her father, and she made it her goal to be assigned to the voyage. Turns out the captain never did grow out of calling her "Andy"

>Captain Beatrice "Billie" Kirk
30 years old and still kicking, Billie is a strong captain of the Enterprise. She makes her daddy James Kirk proud, and even impresses her bonedaddy Leonard McCoy, even if he's a little crustier showing it. Jim taught her how to spar (she breaks in all the redshirts) and Leo taught her advanced first aid. Even if she was gonna be a captain like Jim, dammit she was gonna know how to stop excessive bleeding and set broken bones. She's very proud of her all-female chief staff, but her favorite is her First Officer, Andy. Billie has been a lesbian since she knew that you could kiss people, and has been chasing skirts just like her dad before her. The latest skirt she has her eyes on belongs to one exiguous and cold-shouldered quarter-Vulcan named T'Androma.

>Nora Kirkland, CNO
At 35 years old - though you wouldn't know that by looking at her - Nora has all the degrees and qualifications to be in her position as Chief Navigation Officer. However, all her life she's been met with people telling her she's "too pretty for Starfleet" or "too pretty to be smart" or "why don't you just be a model, dear?" Always the insufferable optimist, she believes that her parents' constant discouraging towards her Starfleet job was really their attempt at reverse-psychology to encourage her to succeed. She's often thought to be naive or air-headed, because of her friendly and trusting nature. She's very open and she has a good heart. Her parents resent her a little bit for causing them to lose so much money paying for her Starfleet Academy tuition, and they remain in contact with her only because she sends them a part of her generous salary.

>Jass Gala, Pilot
Few people know the stars better than 72-years-young Jass. She comes from a species of long-living aquatic people known as the Mirth, and most of her species thinks she's ridiculous for choosing a life-path that involves her living above water. She's been traveling the stars in her own little one-person motor-rocket since she was 20 years old, and settled down for a career in Starfleet 13 years ago. She can breathe air for up to an hour - not very comfortably - before her body will start to drown from oxygen poisoning. She wears that apparatus around her neck to keep her breathing comfortably throughout the day. She's very embarrassed about her special living quarters - a two-story tank area that gives her room for friends to visit on a deck on the second floor - and insists that she could sleep just as comfortably in a bath tub. Billie tells her that the day Jass has to sleep in a bathtub, she'll personally see to it that everybody's rooms are shrunk to a 10th the size they should be.

>Ashva Vahn, CE
66-year-old Ashva would like you to know that she's not angry, her face is just shaped that way thank you very much. Her people are primarily female, with 1 male born to every 25 females. They have a lion-pride society, in which many women will marry one man, in the hopes that one of them will produce a son and the species can continue. Thankfully, males live almost twice as long as females in the species, so every man has the chance to produce two or three sons in their lifetime. When Ashva was in her early twenties, she left her planet behind and decided she'd find someone of a different species. Two years later and she was marrying Kornan the Klingon. He was strong, masculine, and exciting. Little did she know that Cavaran could mate with other species - but due to their aggressively dominant DNA, all four of the children that she bore were Cavaran. He has since divorced her for never being home, and takes care of the children alone. She has not seen her four daughters in more than a year.

>Verily Thames, CSO
37 years old, Verily is the toughest cookie in the jar. She lost her limbs 15 years ago when she was in Starfleet Academy. A deranged student built a bomb and trapped 260 students in the auditorium with it. she stayed behind to help lever people out of windows, and was one of 12 people caught in the explosion. Out of those 12, 4 survived, and she was wounded the worst. All four of them were discharged with honors, but she refused to accept the discharge. One year and four robotic limbs later, and she re-enrolled in Starfleet Academy. She graduated Summa cum Laude, and was assigned to the Enterprise as the Chief Security Officer. She is the redshirt that never dies. She's been stabbed, shot, phasered, poisoned, crushed and maimed, and she always comes back from it. She's got a soldier's spirit, and she's the last person you want to get on the bad side of. She'll kick your butt and look fine as hell doing it.

Always looked awkward to me. I know they're supposed to be 'auto-targeting' or whatever but I still think it'd be useful to have some chance of aiming it conventionally. If nothing else, the pistol-style phasers can be braced more easily to let you build a stable shooting position faster.

I don't see how the hand vacuum can be grapped faster, they're both stuck on velcro patches anyway.

well we have to assume that the Sphere Builders didn't target Earth. Since there is no Federation in the 26th Mirror Century.

If they were defeated in the mirror century at all. Then they would have likely been brought down by the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance.

Which means they would have had the Xindi in the 22nd century target Qo'noS.

>>83609611
They only attacked because inter-dimensional beings came into the universe and lied to them about Earth destroying them in the future when in fact they were a threat to their plans of converting space to suit them via the expanse. It's quite possible they never went into that dimension to tell them about humanity.

>>83609730

Troi telling Riker his secrets was way out of line and she should have been ashamed of herself. Riker also should have reprimanded her for it.

Goddamn ENT season 3 is fucking good. They could have stretched like 3 seasons out of the expanse. It had the air of mystery with the spheres and cool visuals. The continuity touches were nice- they often had throw away references to a previous episode in the next the episode.

Totally dug how the show handled the balance of dark stories and dealing with a Trek captain with limited resources vs. not going too dark and making it unfun.

Neat props, neat aliens, the MACOs were cool lookin'. Just all around fun. Plus T'Pol having an actually fun a Trek looking costume instead of a hairshirt catsuit.

>>83610955
Never really raised above 'ok' for me. I don't really get the extreme hate for it either, but the best I could say is it was generally mediocre. Did show signs of improvement towards the end though.

>>83611513
I just really love the setting of season 3. It started out with the right amount of mystery, danger, and potential for cool stories. Squeezing it into one season was a bit rushed- I'd have liked a stretched out version of that setting.

Seasons 1 and 2 were mostly "meh" to me with a few highs (Jeffery Combs) and lows('Dear Doctor'). Season 4 was bretty gud, but it doesn't fascinate me in setting and tone like S3.

>He recognised the Cardy threat before it manifested, if Picard had listened to him then they would have been in no position to compromise the security of the Alpha Quadrant by housing the Dominion.

If he had done this through proper procedure the way Picard asked him for he could have had his wish. If he hadn't gone all "Cowboy Diplomacy" and "Wounded War Veteran" he would have been vindicated. Atleast his actions exposed the ships were using dampening fields for "scientific research." And we all know that in ST "Scientific Research" is the same as "making art and cinema in your country" for the CIA today. He was atleast able to get Star Trek to quit seeing them as allies and start paying attention to them once again.

>>83609957
>>Jellico
He literally did nothing wrong. Riker was way out of line. I'll give Riker the benefit of the doubt that he was on purposely poorly written that way just to make a scene more interesting. But a real commanding officer would know Picard getting caught was just part of the job and Jellico was fully justified in not compromising his position just to save him. Really demanding, sometimes making unrealistic demands just to push people around. Telling Troi to finally put on a proper uniform was his best decision ever. Who the hell does she think she is walking around on a military vessel dressed like a prom queen? Picard was too lenient. The only people who enjoyed serving him were Data and Worf. Would make Kurn proud.

>>Pressman
Absolutely did nothing wrong. You're only supposed to just sign the treaty but secretly not go through with it. They could have just played semantics with the Treaty and claim they didn't have "cloaking" technology but instead have "phasing" technology.

All three of them could have prevented the entire Dominion.

Consider the following:

Cardassia doesn't join the Dominion in DS9 season 3 because Cardassia is strong in DS9 season 3.

Cardassia only joins the Dominion in DS9 season 5 because Cardassia is weak in DS9 season 5.

If Maxwell had conquered the Cardassians, then the weak Cardassians would have joined the Dominion in season 3.

Without those 2 years to prepare by building hundreds of ships and studying Dominion technology, the Federation would have lost the war.

Stopping Maxwell is what saved the Federation.

Me>>83616819, I was going to post more but I ran out of room. You are right that Cardassia joins the Dominion because it is weak. However, WHY it is weak is what lead them to joining the Dominion in desperation. Unfortunately, Gul Dukat's decision for joining the Dominion wasn't completely selfish. It was The Klingons that declared war on Cardassia. While Cardassia was dealing with the Klingons, the Obsidian order and the Tal Shi'ar ignore helping them to just go give the Founders a deathblow. It was the Obsidian Order and the Tal Shi'ar that kept the Klingons' bloodlust for conquest in check along with the Federation Treaty. Without the Obsidian Order, the State fell to civil war between the Military and the Central Command. Without the Obsidian Order, the Central command the Military could not hold order on Cardassia nor hold back the Klingons on their own. So they joined the Dominion and gave the Dominion a foot in the door to the Alpha Quadrant.

"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the books are terrible. As I read one, I noticed that every time the author ran out of ideas, they wrote instead another character from another series crossing over to bail them out.

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time a character from a different series appeared in a novel for TNG. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope over 47 times. I was incredulous. The minds of TNG novel authors are so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that they have no other style of writing. Later, I read a lavish, loving review of one such TNG novel by the StarTrek.com official website. They wrote something to the effect of, "If you're still hungry for even more Next Generation, then check out Star Trek/Doctor Who: Assimilation^2, available now at a local LCS store near you." And they were quite right. They were not being ironic. When you read shitty TNG fanfic books, you are, in fact, trained to read shitty TNG fanfic comics.

The Borg first appear in the Star Trek: The Next Generation second-season episode "Q Who?", when the omnipotent life-form Q hurls the Enterprise-D across the galaxy to challenge Jean-Luc Picard's asinine and arrogant boast that his crew is ready to face the unexplored galaxy's unknown dangers and mysteries. The Enterprise crew is quickly overwhelmed by the relentless Borg, and Picard eventually begs for and receives Q's help in returning the ship to its previous coordinates in the Alpha Quadrant.

The Borg next appear in The Next Generation's third-season finale and fourth-season premiere, "The Best of Both Worlds". In the third-season cliffhanger, Picard is abducted and subsequently assimilated by the Borg and transformed into "Locutus". Picard's knowledge of Starfleet is gained by the collective, and the single cube easily wipes out all resistance in its path, notably the entire Starfleet armada at Wolf 359.

The Borg return in the Next Generation film, "Star Trek: First Contact". After failing to assimilate Earth by a direct assault in the year 2373, the Borg travel back in time to the year 2063 to try to stop Zefram Cochrane's first contact with the Vulcans, which would have erased the Federation from history. The Enterprise-E follows the Borg back in time, destroys the Borg sphere, and the crew restores the original timeline. However, parts of the destroyed Borg sphere, along with at least two drones, crash land in the Arctic, and are left there, frozen and preserved, until they are discovered on March 1, 2153 by a team of 22nd Century scientists.

In the Enterprise episode "Regeneration", the remnants of the destroyed sphere from Star Trek: First Contact are discovered in the Arctic along with two frozen drones. Once unearthed, the Borg quickly revive and assimilate the human scientists who found them before stealing an unarmed research ship, modifying it to match Starfleet technology in a matter of hours. Unfortunately, the drones manage to send a transmission toward the Delta Quadrant before they are destroyed. According to dialogue, their transmission would reach its destination in 200 years, essentially establishing a closed time loop with the events of "Q Who", explaining why the cube in the latter episode was already en route to Earth.

>>83624915
So basically if Archer prevented the message from being transmitted nothing would have happened

Truly the worst captain, no wonder no one remembers him in the future

>>83624946
To be fair, destroying the Borg is pretty goddamn hard to do - especially in the mid-22nd century.

Neither Archer nor anyone else, knew who'/what they were, or where they came from. They also had no idea that they had the ability or inclination to send a message to the Delta quadrant until the time that the transmission was discovered. Picard, on the other hand, had that knowledge. It was only a result of his incompetence, as well as his gross negligence of failing to make sure hat each and every Borg drone was destroyed that enabled the Borg to find Earth in the first place. Archer is in no way responsible for the utter failure of Picard.

>>83625146
That's because Shatner is a hack.

Archer and his crew had no idea how dangerous the Borg were but nevertheless tried everything in their power to destroy the vessel. Picard and everyone else knew first-fucking-hand all about the Borg and dropped the ball.

I honestly think he comes close even though he's not /ourguy/; his own family barely knows him, he has a history of pushing himself until he almost dies for no real reason, he has literally no social activities outside of work besides doing more work on his own time and occasionally socializing with Trip, he eats alone and he has a morbid streak a mile wide and a flair for the dramatic.
