/c/TenForward: 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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

Could have further explored Hirogen culture and added an aggressive voice of agreement with Janeway. Spend a couple episodes looking for his lost son. Make him a security officer to butt heads with Tuvok. Though, I will say that Seven had enough mentors to choose from by that point.

This sort of thing would've made Voyager an all-time great series: just having them sort of accrue crew members and even whole ships as part of their fleet, and rolling back into the Alpha Quadrant with Amelia Earhart as acting Captain of the Equinox and this Hirogen as her security officer, and like two versions of a couple of characters (after the "Deadlock" episode), and Neelix and Tuvok and also Tuvix, and maybe a Borg sphere operated by several of the liberated Borg they came across during the course of the series, and some of the allied ships they hung out with during "Year of Hell"... Honestly, it would've made the point about how awesome the Federation is even more poignantly if they kept gathering more and more people who wanted to be a part of it.

Would also help account for all those extra torpedoes that were pulled out of thin air.

I always forget that's J.G. Hertzler. It's like....the less elaborate prosthetics he wears, the less I recognize him. See also: Laas in DS9.

(At least, until he speaks)

That was what tipped me off when I watched this. I kept expecting him to talk to Seven about glory or honor or something.

LMAO, I watched it last night and didn't even realize until reading this post. But yeah that's martok's voice alright.
