/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

The only flaw being, if one is a dud, or if the Kazon somehow manage to disable one in time, now you've given the Kazon extremely advanced weaponry and altered the balance of power in that part of space

then put multiple tricobalt devices on there. dozens. however many it takes until there's enough to satisfy your silly theoretical "what ifs"

but, remember: when the Kazon got their hands on replicator tech, the worst they ended up doing is turning themselves inside-out and half-fused with metal. I'm not too worried about what would happen if they got half-exploded Caretaker tech. They'd prbably turn themselves into a folksy barbeque.

Hindsight is a powerful tool left to those who cant use it.

Which is to say, Janeway the slayer had no idea how ineffective Berman would make the Kazon, so she acted in a selfless way.

If she knew how sparse coffee would be and how "Borgish" it would get, I wouldn't be surprised if she did take the chance.

Two questions, how much coffee is there and how many tuvixs do we get to space down this Janeway?

and altered the balance of power in that part of space

So the Kazon end up going up against the Borg?

I'm not seeing a downside here...
