Re: Question about Wolf 359
That would work out just fine if the dampers on board fail and the crew becomes paste on the innerhull.

Re: Question about Wolf 359
The Excalibur had a perfect OOU excuse - SFX weren't up to showing the type of damage that would kill the whole crew. The same doesn't apply to Wolf 359.

Re: Question about Wolf 359
Thats why we have to find IU reasons like above. It may suck but the Trek writers seem to enjoy doing this to us.Deepcrush wrote:That would work out just fine if the dampers on board fail and the crew becomes paste on the innerhull.

Re: Question about Wolf 359
So ALL the inertial dampers on ALL the realtively intact ships failed at the SAME time, as the ships were going to warp even though engaged in a battle?

Re: Question about Wolf 359
Right, fine. Anyway, what precisely does this have to do with me mentioning an OOU inconsistency?

Re: Question about Wolf 359
The OOU problem is the writers, IU is dampers or life support.

Re: Question about Wolf 359
I... never noticed the conditions of the ships, actually. I was just too overwhelmed by shock at the loss.

Re: Question about Wolf 359
A lot fo the ships at Wolf 359 only have burn marks. Voyager had far worse damage at times.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Re: Question about Wolf 359
Well, Voyager had one thing that those ships didn't: a built-in reset button.
