It was kinda amusing to think that maybe you don't actually have to live in some primitive backwater world, a monarchy, or a cityworld, and be either locked into eternal wars or pirate raids. But I guess the price of being ruled by Jack Black and Lizzo (who I never conciously heard of before...

A tiny missed opportunity in the Data memories might have been an image of a Varon-T Disruptor or Varrian from The Most Toys. Because "Data cannot take a life" is not quite accurate (he can definitely take out people in a firefight when threatened), and that scenario went a step further - Data...

It basically writes itself! Unless it's a big twist. Ah, well, we'll see... The less they deal with the specifics of the last sequels, the better chance they have to maybe create something decent again.

The Halflings were a bit weak, LotR did it more convincing (at least in memory,who knows, maybe it's like my memories of old 8 Bit games and not actually that good). But it was in a weird way evoking the feeling of the Dungeon Master improvising something in the game - like the DM changing his...

For a secret invasion a lot of helicopters and explosions going on. I guess no one knows who they belong to or what it's about, but that stuff is going isn't the secret?

The Federation never failed - it just had a bigger setback. The Federation stayed active and alive despite losing lots of member worlds. But many stayed true to its deals and they worked hard do fix what was broken and eventually they succeeded. We're dealing with a lot of challenges and...

Probably about as much as any other infiltrated place in Starfleet. Maybe a bit worse, depending on what they knew already about the changling infiltration. I think at the minimum they could serve as hostages that are closer to the Titan crew than most. I kinda agree, but just because I don't...

I forget to account for the Q Continuum as another explanation. Or more specificially - why was Q so interested in Picard? Maybe he has that little spark that will bring humanity to another level, and so does his son, and it's united with that little spark that turned Wesley into a traveller. I...

I probably shouldn't really try to think about this, because it seens too far off. But it's fun, so anyway: Maybe they need Jack and Picard because Picard never was connected to Pah-Wraith Goo, and this way they can use a pure Picard sample to seperate the wraith from Jack.

Jack's telepathy could be result either of something like the Founder's Great Link or the Borg Hive Mind. I seem to remember people speculated in Season 1 or Season 2 that Picards Irumodic Syndrome might have been caused by his Borg assimilation. And some speculate that Jack "inherited" some...

While space is pretty much vacuum, it still contains some stuff - radiation, random particles, the occassional micro-asteroid. And while it's very, very little, starships in Star Trek really fly fast, and all that stuff adds up. I might be just enough that if you fly at warp, it's cooler if you...

I had fun during the episode, but i leaves a bit of an empty feeling. It doesn't really feel like anything important happened. Even the Grogu flashback didn't really reveal something significant, except maybe the face of a Jedi that helped Grogu escape. And the hunting and feeding techniques...

Well, she wouldn't be the first Maquis to have survived the Jem'Hadar. I mean, Eddington and Sisko also rescue a bunch of them, too. Wouldn't be that surprising if there were more. --- I think the biggest difficulties with canon is really the whole Changling ability set isn't always consistent...

TIE Advanced, TIE Defender, Assault Gunboat and Missile Boats had shields, the other TIEs usually didn't. Your worst enemy when fighting a TIE Fighter were Y-Wings in head-on-assaults (because their laser cannons are close together) and anything with turrets that could shoot in the rear...

It was mentioned in the show however that they were also dismantling the Alliance fleet. For now they still have something at least, but we know by the sequels it's basically all dismantled and what's left is what the Resistance has.

The Leader powers are better, but if you get a healing surge value with the cheapest potion back, you can basically heal yourself every turn at high levels. The extra d6s won't really make that much of a difference at the end of the day. And you certainly don't need Second Wind.

I am more shocked at the schizophrenia. Republic Guy I: "Hey, let's get rid of these perfectly good Star Destroyers and Alliance ships that have legitimate military uses for our defense forces or the defense forces of our member worlds." Republic Guy II: "Great idea, good friend! But keep the...

The reason it is set up that way is so you don#t end up with 50 cheap Level 1 (or Level 5) healing potions and don't need the Leader's healing powers anymore. I personally think it would have been better if they didn't need the high-level wealth magical items and all that stuff and we had a...

When it comes to reactions, interrupts and the like, I sometimes think it would really help to nail it down to a very small number of possible triggers, to make it easier to spell out and look for a simple few key events during combat that are easier to track. The more complicated the condition...

The Bloodied conditions on its own is really just that keeping score on whether you're at half hit points or less or not. But because it's a condition explicitely called out in the game mechanics, other abilities can key off of it. You could have a necromantic spell or assassin ability that...
