Well to be fair I always wondered how much "tactic" there can be given the ship-systems (shields, weapons which almost never miss, ships traveling FTL) we see and how much is actually done by the computer since humanoids aren't able to react fast enough.Sionnach Glic wrote:Given that it was outright stated that Starfleet doesn't consider tactics to be an important part of training, it's not surprising that even Starfleet's "best of the best" can be defeated by theship of foolsPakled.
Sure you might utilize planets as cover, nebulas etc. but that should be the rare execption. You might have some tactics in large fleet actions but two ships facing off, what can you do other than engage, fire everything you got and hope you have luck and the stronger vessel? You might outmaneuvre your opponent which falls under having the better and faster vessel imho, you might outgun him or have stronger shields. I don't see how you can utilize meaningful "tactics" in empty space. Surprise and flanking attacks don't work for example, you have nothing you could use as cover etc. .
