[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 4626775, member: 2020"] LOL! Heh. But ... are we, indeed, the Old Hands? Is that the majority of ENWorld? I really do not know. (That's a question for Morrus.) - (off-topic) Concerning Star Fleet Battles, thanks for the info. I'll skip #3. I prefer the complexity. A favorite of mine was ECM, or Electronic Counter Measures. And ECCM, or Electronic Counter Counter Measures. How would they have appeared in Star Trek, had it been depicted there? Federation Captain: Range? Helmsman: 90,000 kilometers. Captain: At 80,000, fire all weapons. Science Officer: Captain, they are using ECM. Captain: Fire anyways. Helmsman: Yes sir. (But the Klingon ship had deployed 6 points of power (the equivalent of a fifth of it's total warp output) to ECM, jamming the Federation ship's sensors and downgrading it's lock-on. The 4 overloaded photon torpedoes, are fired. 3 would have hit, but only 1 does now. The phaser fire from the heavy Phaser-Is is badly degraded, and does far less damage.) Science officer: Enemy front shield still at 20% (Shield 1), enemy ship weapons at full, all our weapons fired. The enemy ship is launching drones (thermonuclear missiles that travel at translight speed.) Captain: We are in trouble. (on the Klingon ship, where there is general cheering.) Klingon Captain: They are in trouble. When we achieve our victory, our science officer is in for a decoration and a promotion. (As am I ...) [/QUOTE]
