[OOC] Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

[Lady Seraphina]

So that's where that picture came from. And yeah, I guess Wrath of Khan is the only good Star Trek thing I've ever seen. I guess that's why I've always preferred Star Wars over Star Trek. Though that might also be a result of me preferring big fleet on fleet/army on army fights than ship on ship/man on man fights.

@Guess Who

Watch Deep Space 9. It covers a four year war between the Federation and its allies and an invading force called the Dominion who've co-opted the Cardassian Empire as there base against the Alpha Quadrant. It's got a fair amount of fleet on fleet battles.

@Prince of Seraphs

That does sound pretty cool. And I know a little bit about DS9 since I used to have a Star Trek strategy game for my PS2. I remember playing the hell out of that game with my dad. Always had to work together with him because I absolutely sucked at overall strategy but would absolutely destroy everyone in combat while my dad had the opposite problem.

Just remember no matter how evil they make Section 31 look they were totally justified in there actions the entire time.

Star Trek writers seem to do a terrible job at making Section 31 the bad guys.

I mean they operated very much under the "The ends justify the means" mentality but nothing they did I think was really wrong. Though if I were them I'd have arranged for the cure to the metagenic virus to be offered to the Founders in exchange for surrender. Would have saved a really lot of lives if they'd done that before marching on Cardassia.

So you've seen literally all of the bad Star Trek? (except for Wrath of Khan)

Mate, I will make City on the Edge of Forever the hill I die upon because that shit was fucking good.

TOS has its fair share of stinkers, particularly in the final season, but it had its highlights.

The Trouble with Tribbles. Amok Time. The Menagerie. A Piece of the Action.

The Voyage Home is a great comedy. The Undiscovered Country is also pretty solid.

First both the Menagerie and the Cage (the unaired pilot where the footage came from) were pretty bad.

Second I loved the characters of TOS series but about 90% of the series was not very good. From the plotlines to the social issues they tried to address and especially the sets and the effects, a great deal of it just straight up sucked. It created the foundation that the amazing world of Star Trek is built on (and the reboot took a huge dump on) and I will always respect it for that but as a stand alone series... well honestly I'm surprised it wasn't cancelled sooner.

Don't get me wrong that 10% that wasn't shit was pure gold but it's nestled among so much crap that I'm surprised people remember TOS as fondly as they do.

Also General Trelane was definitely the best advisory they ever went up against.

@Silvan Haven

Casual time travel? He'll handle it.

Secret base in the middle of Qo'nos? No sweat.

[Silvan Haven]

Wat.

I mean, I've only seen scattered episodes from all over the series but...

@Silvan Haven

How about that time Kirk and Spock fought Nazis?

This isn't back in time or anything, they literally found nazi germany on an alien planet.

Or that time that they pandered to white catholic Americans... about every four episodes.

Do you doubt the words of Rudol von Stroheim?!

[Abillioncats]

Well I'm more than halfway through writing my entry and I keep thinking, "What the hell did I just write?"

[HereComesTheSnow]

honestly in consideration for some last-minute bgm changes

[Abillioncats]

Well I finished my contest entry, might read through it again and fix any typos and such but other than that it's finally done.

I'm not even sure what to think of what I just wrote it's one of the most bizarre things I've ever written. But I had fun with it ahahahahah...

But yeah I'm fucking weird.

@Abillioncats

Cool. I'll try to hold off on reading it so you can make any edits you want.

[Write]

@Write

Also cool. To anyone else planning on writing an entry, you have 4 hours and 15 minutes.
