Picard. Because he's the best Captain.

>>83948722

Archer. The missions would be the most interesting and he is the least pacifist of them all, including bringing military on board to fight. He retrofitted his ship three times in less than 4 years as he ended up fighting more and more.

Klingons, Romulans, Orions, Borg, Xindi, Vulcans, Andorians, tellarites. Who didn't Archer fight. Suliban. Three random marauder species in the first years, elachi. Every day was a new battle somewhere in Alpha quadrant. He even jokes about it in Home, "You'll spend a great deal of time, boldly going into battle. "

Have you ever watched an episode of TOS. Its one twilight zone tier nightmare after another.
Janeway objectively has the fewest deaths on her ship, so I'd go with her.

>>83949093

I don't feel it was wasted at all, I feel it got cut short as it was gaining it's legs, missing out on shran, season 5, earth-romulan war, quite a few other things but I don't feel we missed out. I feel like they couldn't give a definitive voice to archer because they weren't sure of the other actors in terms of chewing scenery so they made him kind of the be all kind of guy and when you're writing an ensemble cast, definitive traits help give them a character 'voice' and you see that in Terra Prime/Demons, except they needed to establish those qualities back in season fucking 1.

Hoshi needed to go from shy/scared, to growing into her own in very first season. You needed Archer being intuitive and guy everyone can come to, but also hard nosed space commander when world goes to shit and torpedoes start flying. You need reed with his stiff upper british-ness, but kind of funny and being guy figures things out, in a lot of ways, Trip/T'pol get that early on and throughout but other mains suffer, especially mayweather. The doc was easily most interesting by his traits alone, and held things in a way that made him stand out and he has already seen so much makes him steady in every scene. You needed more ethical dilemmas for him to round out his character and show he had preconceived biases that he needed to work on, that is a very trek theme.

That kind of stuff.

Picard for maximum comfy.

Sure, every once in a while we'll be boarded by borg or Q will stop by and fuck some shit up, or we'll get into a spat with some cardassians or romulans. But man, I would love to just be like some low level ensign, doing some work in the jeffries tubes (i'd ask the computer to play some light classical music in the background while I work) at the end of my shift I check in with Geordie and let him know the phase inducers or whatever have been improved with a 13% increase in efficiency. He'd give me a pat on the back and tell me to take the rest of the night off. I'd go hang out on the beach in the holodeck for a few hours, get cleaned up, head to ten forward and flirt with some fresh out of the academy young ensigns, trade some bants with the science nerds, and then head off to my big ass comfy quarters, replicate some crab legs and watch some classical tv and films like family guy and infinity war part 2 before I fell asleep.

I agree with the giving the voice for Archer, but they neglected the cast. Mayweather for instance, you could place a random ensign and it wouldn't make a difference.

Basically, they tried to find themselfs for 3 seasons without definite getting the tread until someone like Manny Coto, who knows Trek back and forth start making it Star Trek. Which was too late.

And in terms of being a captain with authority - Archer sucks donkey balls - Even the captain of the Kelvin (and I don't like the reboots) has oozed more presence and competence in the first 30 min. than Archer in the whole 4 season.

Picars, DS9 is my favourite ST but there's no way to know if Sisko would be a good in an actual Trek situation.

Kirk would most likely get me killed and Janeway would probably turn me into coffee.

Picard.
Unless it's a movie you have better chances.

Kirk loses people so much by season 3 is barely fazed by it while in the first season he went autistic all the time someone died.

Sisko causes wars and hangs up with war criminals so no.

Janeway will probably have you replaced with a quantum clone

Thats kind of the point of Enterprise as a whole. Hes not the superconfident and self assured captains from the rest of the franchise because he doesnt have the benefit of the tradition he's helping to establish as absolutely necessary by virtue of stumbling through every encounter and falling ass first into a solution.
Theres a good character arc with him across 4 seasons growing into his role. Would have been cool to see how the mind meld with sarak tempered him with more patience and wisdom as he spearheads the federation and has to constantly save it from itself.
I agree the rest of the cast was underutilized and underdeveloped. Every time they give mayweather something to do I genuinely liked the character. A spacer helmsman is a good sci fi character, and works well in the kind of story the show was telling.
But trip gets plenty to do, and t'pol has vulcan stuff and learning about humans. Phlox is best doc, and I would watch a Phlox M.D. show.

TOS is hard to rec as the entry point. Its the patrician's choice, but the production value and campiness could turn off a lot of people.
Start with the TOS movies. TMP is good, but a lot of people hate it. If you start with wrath of khan you'll be fine. Watch them, start with TNG then DS9 then if youre still invested VOY and ENT.
Ignore the TNG movies,watch galaxy quest instead.
If you're into it do yourself a favor and watch TOS at some point.

Then yeah off to Ten Forward to get a few drinks and see who's around to bs with.
In the few scenarios where I may actually be called on in a red alert or emergency situation I've got one of those puny hand phasers Capt Picard had. They won't even want me to help fight.

Sisko and it's not even a close contest. With him you get to live on a massive comfy station with tons of interesting people, and there is always going to be shit tons of new people coming and going so you don't get bored of the same old people over and over, yet the actual starfleet people will be there for a long time so you can still make good friends as well. Also you can go to bajor and shit for shore leave and be on an actual planet instead of some shit holodeck.

Picard, no question.

Yeah you'd really have to follow starfleet protocol and shit but you wouldn't feel like it was out of rote devotion to the text.
Picard would instill a sense of respect for the very best of the Federation and Starfleet in you while pushing you to succeed/rank up.
>paraphrasing red shirt worf: "the captain wants his junior officers to be always learning"

Plus you know hes not going to just throw your life away for some dumbass shit - and if push comes to shove, he'll absolutely throw hands with whatever hostile ayylmaos come around to get you home safe.

>Janeway
So rigid in the prime directive that she fucked her entire crew repeatedly for a decade. Likely to sell you into slavery if it avoided a PD violation.
>TOS Kirk
If you dont work on the bridge your life is entirely disposable to him so long as muh risk vs reward
>Sisko
the man has real issues with past trauma, believes himself to be the emissary of god-like beings *and* acts accordingly, doesnt seem to do much in terms of mentoring, building officers up etc.
>Archer

Troi first starts thinking about Commander cert after that incident where Picard ends up trapped in the turbolift with the kids.
She was seconds away from having to make an executive decision that might or might not kill hundreds on the ship - in order to guarantee saving the rest.

After that, (and probably combined with years of just being beside Picard and Riker) she seems to have really taken an interest in command - which is shocking desu because her character seemed way more likely to never want to be put in that situation ever again.

Crusher gets commander rank for being chief medical officer, comes with the job as a bonus. But she does know how to lead people (somewhat) because as chief surgeon etc. you have to be able to manage people in a crisis and make tough calls.

All in all they are definitely exceptions to the rule. It does make more sense that Red and Gold would be better suited to command tracks overall.

Bashir is the era-relevant comparison.

If you're CMO of the flagship on deep space exploration, you realistically cant be less than a commander. If you have to relieve the captain of command or force a quarantine to kill crew members, nobody is going to follow some lieutenant with an MD.

But, she was apparently super skilled (while Polaski is on the ship its because Crusher is teaching medicine at SFA) so maybe it was 50/50 merit and assigned-rank.

She'd have had the most if the events of Year of Hell hadn't been retracted by some time fuckery. I wouldn't say it's fair to count any movies either because some captains don't have them and they account for a lot of deaths.
>>
>>83951539
TNG would be allright. Then I would go for TOS.

You don't even have to watch TNG in order, or wath all episodes for that matter. Look for a ranking of best episodes and start with that. Most are autoconclusive, and the show doesn't have a spoiler effect.

Kirk would do his best to save you in all situations and he'd have a sulk if he didn't. Just don't be a woman.

Sisko would probably get you killed by an exploding eps conduit or a jem'hadar.

Replicators have limits.

They can't replicate certain materials, like latinum. They can't replicate precise patterns, like high-quality food. They can't even replicate torpedoes, not even small compenents to be assembled by hand.

A second containment beam is just reinforcing the first beam, since they're both transferring the exact same atoms. The anomaly is what split the beams, because "the containment beam must have had the exact same phase differential as the distortion field".

>>83956035
>because the writers don't give a shit about canon
Right, that's why they gave themselves a magic wand. If the writers don't give a shit, then why are you arguing against the existence of a magic wand? That's a perfect example of them not giving a shit.

They still said that they can't make more, and they said this while they had replicators, proving that replicators can't make more.

Since (as far as we've seen) it can't be done anywhere in the universe other than in that planet's anomaly, I think it's fair to blame Thomas on the anomaly instead of on the transporter.

>Who says it's impossible for some advanced race with different ethics to artificially recreate such conditions?
The fact that they nobody has been seen to do it yet is pretty good evidence that it is beyond everyone's abilities to recreate.

You can do new things without trampling all over the old. It's established canon that transporters are incapable of cloning people (one planet's atmospheric anomaly notwithstanding). So let's keep going with that pre-existing limitation instead of simply pretending that it doesn't exist so you can open up your stupid can of worms.
>>
Uhhhh I am hyper on sugar
>>
>>83956374
It rearranges atomic particles, there's no reason it couldn't replicate people. Latinum can't be replicated because it's too complex for the replicator to handle at a quantum level, but if a replicator can create a steak, it can create a person.

Hook one up to the buffer of a transporter and just deploy thousands of security personal onto the surface.

>It rearranges atomic particles
Poorly. That's why all the replicated food tastes bland. You try rearranging the particles to replicate a person's complex pattern, and you're just going to get a dead body.

You can "almost" replicate a steak and you can "almost" replicate a person.

Maybe I'm misremembering but wasn't Damar complaining how they replicated after they destroy a single one?

Yes, what's your point? They could keep replicating more because they were destroyed with physical objects which provided more matter for replication.

Damar invented a system where he could stop the mines by disabling their replicators, but it took weeks to accomplish because being cloaked made them hard to find.

you forgot a barman/chef, the role filled by Guinan in TNG, Quark in DS9 and Neelix in VOY

>>83958052

I fear a series done today could be tainted with forced leftism though. The cast being a multicultural group of black women, one of them somehow muslim kinda playing a TOS Chekov type of character, and an evil Ferengi named Qrump as a "main bad guy".

Sisko is the best choice not out of mental stability, but because he feels like the most human, Kirk is basically a space cowboy, a corny superhero, Picard is a diplomat and an intellectual, Janeway is a schizophrenic.

Sisko feels a caring dad amongst those whose surround him, and is willing to find a peaceful solution to the many problems they face in DS9, but won't shy away from open combat.

how else would you describe Kirk? While all the captains are diplomats in different degrees, Kirk was clearly the one who fills the definition of Action Man the best, who do you think Zap Brannigan is supposed to be parodying?

You haven't watched TNG?
>>
>>83958519
maybe watch the show your commenting on tripfag, he's calm cool barely gets angry its all about protecting his ship and crew and completing the mission, Zap is a retarded parody of the popular perception of Kirk from the films, anyone whos seen the show knows how off base it is, he always tried diplomacy and in-fact almost always succeeds, its the same maymay shit about Kirk always chasing tail, again not from the show, some chicks almost always after him and he's like 'look your really nice and everything but mission, ship, crew sorry hun' he only 'seduces girls when its necessary to complete the mission, just watching the fucking show tripfag, but then we've had this discussion before and it doesn't seem like you ever will so maybe just avoid talking about TOS altogether ok?
>>
>>83958636
Yes we all have you on the other hand haven't seen TOS so just shut the fuck up, your literally basing your image of Kirk on a parody cartoon

whatever you want to believe boyo, I've been watching all of Star Trek on release order and I'm currently at Voyager, I watched TOS long ago.

>>83958691

I guess so, out of all the captains he seemed the least likely to get to do battle, but in such case I wouldn't doubt his efectiveness.
>>
Kirk is a guy you would legit want to have a drink and hang out with. I can't really say that about any of the other captains although I'd say Picard was technically the best leader. Still Kirk always wins.

You really do need to rewatch TOS if this is what you believe about Kirk.

He seemed a very able diplomat and conducted himself with immense professionalism. The hard-living, alien-banging space cowboy thing was more perception than reality and is a common belief only among casual fans. Later forms of media, including Futurama, did their best to sell this image because it's more entertaining out of context.

Go back and watch Balance of Terror, Court Martial, or any number of episodes with a similar tone (there are a lot of them) and tell me if Kirk lives up to your mental image of him.

You know what? It's fine. Take a look at one of these and consider how little volume the actual tech takes up (it's mostly empty space). Now subtract the nacelles, warp drive, impulse engines, shield generator, phaser array and other unnecessary tech and you can get the essentials down to a 1-meter blob.

They did say that more torpedoes can't be built.
