What if Voyager had been a Sovereign-class?

[Lt. Staplic]

yes, but nothing too bad, most of the damage would be superficial to the hull, the shields would be gone, and weapons systems would be taxed, the the ship would be able to get to spacedock under it's own power.

What if Voyager had been a Sovereign-class?

Sorry if I'm late to the thread, but don't even joke about putting this much offensive power into the hands of Kathryn Janeway!

[Lazar]

Well they did make her an admiral.

[Sionnach Glic]

Exactly. They gave her a desk job to keep her away from the helm of a ship.

[Deepcrush]

Even SF can have a good idea every now and then.

[Sionnach Glic]

Aye, someone must have figured that leaving her in charge of a ship was a bad idea.

[JudgeKing]

Many Delta Quadrant species would have a new one ripped wide open

[Deepcrush]

Yeah, she would build a Janeway Empire somewhere across the DQ. Then Voy would never get home.

[SteveK]

Their enemies would have become proportionally stronger so they'd still be a threat.

[Tsukiyumi]

I'm fairly certain this is an in-universe question, not one of writer's fiat.

[Praeothmin]

Of course.

My question relates to what we saw in the series, not with, say, half competent and menacing Kazons...

[Tyyr]

The appropriate place to stick Janeway wasn't in a desk job, it was at the short end of court martial.

Funny, I was going to say 'torpedo tube'.

[Mikey]

There's got to be a planet somewhere whose rotation matches its revolution. That would be the appropriate place to stick Janeway, because that planet would always have a location where the sun don't shine.

[Tyyr]

That comes after the court martial, there are procedures to follow.
