Pfft, the only way they'd be usefull, is if you piled up their corpses to make a baricade.

Can't happen. According to paragraph 3 of the "Starfleet away mission protocals," all unnnamed red/yellowshirts must be killed in as senseless and unproductive way as possible.At least they die honourably...
I can't stand nothing dull
I got the high gloss luster
I'll massacre your ass as fast

Phaser widebeams to encompass many enemies, or high settings to ensure the enemies are dead are also not allowed. Neither is holding down the phaser "fire" button to just machine gun anyone. You must fire in short, singular bursts that have a high chance of missing. Any sort of personal protection, including personal forcefields, are also not allowed. The fact that they can be made with just a rewired communicator is irrelevant. They are not allowed.Mikey wrote:Can't happen.

There's a difference?Piles of dead red/yellowshirts...
I see we've moved from "Starfleet engineering guidelines" to "Starfleet away mission protocols."

Of course! But with all this focus on Starfleet, we must not forget the rest of the Galaxy...Phaser widebeams to encompass many enemies, or high settings to ensure the enemies are dead are also not allowed. Neither is holding down the phaser "fire" button to just machine gun anyone. You must fire in short, singular bursts that have a high chance of missing. Any sort of personal protection, including personal forcefields, are also not allowed. The fact that they can be made with just a rewired communicator is irrelevant. They are not allowed.
Just for starters, there's the general Code of Hostile Aliens (or CHA for short), which states that all hostile alien races must indulge in long, drawn out viewscreen debates with their enemies rather than simply decloaking and blowing them to kingdom come.
Then there's the Declaration of Klingon Strategy, which guarantees all Klingons certain inalienable rights, among which are "Disruptors, Batt'leths, and the pursuit of Gagh"; the Sneaky Romulan Strategy Rulebook, which decrees that all mysterious Romulan operatives should, when in tense situations, beam over unattended to the opponent's ship and inform him of their tragic and mysterious back-story; and the Cardassian Engineering Guidebook, which contains the oft-guessed-at Prime Directive of Cardassian Design: "Never build one good warship if you can instead build two bad warships."
Yes, good strategy can be found throughout the Galaxy!

Maybe something happens to our Galaxy in the future to cause this mass retardation.
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.
