The Defiant is a great ship, not because of the arms for me, but rather the size and crew compliment is more to my liking...but I also like the design...  |

I like it not only for the size and crew complement, but for the aesthetic. Most Starfleet designs are meant to be graceful and sweeping, reflecting the peaceful mission statement and the nobility of the Federation. The Defiant is small, fast, and heavily armed, designed as a gut-punching warship with an aesthetic to match. If Starfleet vessels were animals, the Defiant would be a wolverine. |

Or a Honey Badger!
Why does everyone assume that a honey badger is more dangerous than a wolverine? Looking at the stats, a wolverine is on average bigger, heavier, and more powerful than a badger. Check out these comparables: STATS Wolverine Height: 12-18" at shoulder Length: 26 to 34 in Weight: 25 to 70 lbs Honey Badger Height: 10-14" at shoulder Length: 20 to 28 in Weight: 15-35 lbs. The wolverine has a more robust, compact build, packing up to twice the weight of a honey badger on a slightly larger frame. Iits jaws are powerful enough to crush bone. The honey badger is gonna die very messily. |

USS ARMAGEDDON NCC-1752 Constitution Class Refit IV Or I'd be willing to go Refit V, but I'm not really sure if that's the proper designation. It's not the most known, but Connie's were pulled out of mothballs on rare occasion when the Federation faced imminent threat and couldn't field the necessary ships without dipping into the boneyard. One sailed at Wolf 359, and there was at least one in service as of the Dominion War. (laugh all you want, she's hard to find, but she's in there! I've seen her! lol) From what I understand, the Refit V was put in effect for the Dominion War and outfitted the Connie with Type X Phasers... but I can't quite recall. It's obscure info and I haven't looked it up in a looooong time.  |

It's obscure info and I haven't looked it up in a looooong time. Based on canonical statements about the original Enterprise's phaser banks being able to take out the Eastern Seaboard of North America, it would appear that the Connies were DOWNGRADED as time went by. Think I'll stick with the Enterprise... NCC-1701. No bloody A, B, C, D, or E. |

I felt a great disturbance in the force as if millions of nerds cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

I'm a Star Wars over Star Trek fan, with me loving Star Trek as well, (except for Deep space 9) just had an almost fight with my wifes best friend who was crapping all over Return of the Sith, while saying Into Darkness as the best JJ could do with the restrictions placed upon him.
Episode III is my favorite SW movie and the recent ST is the worst in my opinion so these were fighting words, the best of the PT wasn't as good as a bastardization of the greatest ST of all time. Well those were fighting words, and since she is my wife's best friend I poured stiff drink and went onto the pourch and bitched to my cats.

Ok you live in the Trek universe...and you are dating...without any details of the dates...tell us what species/races you dated. I know a weird topic. You are human. Would you date other humans out of familiarity or venture into the unknown? Several of the Trek episodes dealt with romantic interaction between the various humanoids...would this intrigue or disinterest you? For me I am a sucker for blue...so Andorians and Bolians, though the second has caustic potential Klingons would be a challenge. Deltans would be worth the effort for sure, if one survives then knowledge is power. And then the easy A...Orions...green with envy for sure. I am quite open to colors and textures...in food and dating...in and out of context to the Trek universe, as for the real world I am happily married Though...if she were blue or green, that would be ok with me PS She just said the same thing lol...the idea of being blue made her smile...as for green, she said "what shade of green...because some greens are (trails away as she walks into the other room talking to herself)"...comes back in "you mean like that green girl that Kirk was making out with in the newer Trek movie...yeah blue or green would work" |

first , you have not seen the honey badger everyone is talking abut... and second... honey badger dont care... 20lbs of pure hatred with nicotine and beef jerky in its veins??.... yea honey badger wins in my book... lol, im sure that Jev Moldara meant the Honey Badger from action figure therapy.... lol, plus, if a mongoose can tago with a king cobra... im sure it would be an interesting bout between a real Honey Badger and a Wolverine |
