Thrawn and Vader both rocked. Isard just didn't cut it I thought. That red / blue eye thing just didn't compare.

But I personally like Chairface Chipindale from The Tick. I mean seriously, he was carving his name into the moon at The City. How cool is that?

I don't remember where exactly but it called itself the Descent Freespace Bible so I'm sure if you did a search you could find the word document. It just has more background info on all the ships / weapons / species than the game went into. It said it was in the hope of an author using it in a futur...

Did the episode specifically say that the Equonix got there by the Caretaker?

I personally think Warhammer 40k and its rip off, Starcraft have probably the most realistic approach to future ground conflicts. In Warhammer 40k you have huge 8 foot tall genetically engineered warriors with armored suits, two hearts, a way to clone a replacement (Not a huge fan of Warhammer so I'...

I think Starfleet needs some large Dreadnaught size ships for their fleets to make a healthy mix of ships per fleet. I don't think you'd send one of these things out by itself but that's my opinion.

Yeah all my current military info comes from the US Army. I don't know the British system.
The US Army just has different kinds of sergeants for the higher NCO roles.

Works for me :-/ I use windows 2000 I know XP screws with some stuff if that's your operating software. I'm also assuming you mean Descent Freespace and not some other game called Freespace :P I like it a lot I think it'd make an excellent book series. I even downloaded the 'bible' about 80 pages of...

The MACOs had a lot of corporals. Yeomen (who I assume is similiar to a seaman) and Petty Officers (sergeants) are common for background characters. The thing about Warrant Officers is its not a non-commission officer, in the real life army Warrant Officers are specalist in a certain job. They're ki...

Its worse than Reagan. Personally I would say worse presidency since reconstruction.

They dropped Rumsfield when he became too big of a liability they'll probably drop Gonzo next.

Truthfully, for many of us, doesn't Trek at least partially apply? I never deny liking it, but it's also not a matter of conversation at parties or anywhere else where I'm trying to go home with a girl. In fact, the day Trek gets me laid is the day I'll proudly have the communicator badge tattooed ...

"I did that in highschool..."

In the season finale (or opener) for Season 1 (or two I forget) Archer is taken into the future and his way to get into the past is destroyed. His friend tells him that he made a temporal communicator in highschool... This make anyone else wonder at the responsibility of the future Federation? I kno...

Uh from all of them. Spock has a bit of a yellow tint to him, many of the vulcans in Enterprise do too. So I'm going to assume DS9 and VOY would as well. Its not like bright yellow but its a bit of yellow makeup.

Sounds more like a mistake of TNG than ENT to make such a great trading Empire but never have met the federation.
