[quote who="Major Stress" reply="3066" id="3041601"] Nog... Jordy's first officer... Enough time has passed perhaps he is a captain himself, or returned to ferrenginar to be nagus[/quote] Nog lacked the lobes to run the Ferengi financial empire. Perhaps he left Starfleet to lead a cultural revolution denouncing capitalism. Later he was captured and executed for collapsing the Ferengi economy, (and for having a very irritating voice.)

[quote who="Pbhead" reply="119" id="2919454"]This is so STUPID. starwars, startrek, sins, stargate, bsg... its all based on ww1 and ww2 naval battles. it would never work in any way like what is pictured on screen. decent reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_naval_battles[/quote] Perhaps. But what makes you so sure it wouldn't be based around Naval fleet tactics? To me at least it seems that's the most likely scen

[quote who="Kitkun" reply="117" id="2919393"] Quoting Whiskey144, reply 116I'm not sure what you're saying with a "duel with their commands". But if it were up to me, then it would be a MAD scenario, because Picard's a moralising pansy and Kirk's a moralising maverick.Their ships. [/quote] Oops. Misquoted. This is in reference to, "their ships." Wouldn't that be like the HMS Victor

So who would win in a duel? Captain Kirk or Captain Picard?

I've been getting these minidumps myself. But only if I follow a ship at close zoom to the end of a phase jump. Also, only when I play as the Federation. (Not sure if that helps you guys at all.)

[quote who="psychoak" reply="85" id="2917885"] 3. Gravity has a bigger effect on higher-mass objects you dolt. While a standard ISD might not have plunged to it's doom within the DS2's gravity well, the Executor is a much higher mass warship, being several times longer and much higher volume (and thus density and mass). The Executor would be more prone to such a failure than an ISD. Yes, because as everyone knows, a brick falls faster than a feather!<

Your age is not a reflection of you as a person, (I apologize if I worded that poorly) it's simply gives me an understanding of why your post attacked. Probably because you assumed I thought it was "dumb" to debate. Notice nowhere in my original post did I say it was dumb. I just stated its a lost cause IMO for the reasons I gave. You then called me an "idiot." THIS is where I replied in kind. I've actually been a member of this forum for quite aw

You're 17. It makes sense now, so I'll go easy on ya. The trolling you refer to is sort of a faulty assumption based on your own lack of objectivity. You attacked because I disagreed, that's not debate, that's a personal attack. (There is a difference.) I believe my point holds validity just as you believe yours does. No crime in either case. If you wish to hold a debate of any kind, calling people an

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="53" id="2916400"] Or perhaps you're an idiot? Obviously, there isn't sound in space. The most likely explanation is that there is a sound simulation of the combat environment, to aid situational awareness. Further, there's no indication that the ships are traveling superluminally in real space. Trek uses a "warp shell" to to move at superluminal velocity, and presumably the ship isn't outrunning light within the warp shell,

Ultimately both sides lose. In Star Trek and the Star Wars universe, space is apparently made up of an atmosphere. This is clear based on the fact that in both, there is sound in space. Thus, any attempt at FTL travel, (in the methods used in both) would result in the complete destruction of the ship by being bombarded by the atmosphere at absurd speeds. (Envision hitting pavement at the speed of sound.) So for the sake of argument lets s
