Temporal war(s). I saw Enterprise's 'Cold Front' again tonight. This and a thing Mike Sussman said about next season's 'Future Tense' on the TrekBBS (the future vessel the Tholians and Suliban want was originally ment to be the USS Defiant from TOS) made me think.
Here's my question, don't take it too serious, but which episodes/movies do you think did involve the TCW (allthough not mentioned)?
I guess First Contact should be a candidate. The Borg trying to go back in time? Just because they think it's a good idea? Don't you think there's something more behind it? How did they get time travel tech? And does 'Endgame' have something to do with it? (Don't get me wrong, I don't want to solve Braga's continuity violations or stuff, it just happens to be his stuff in this case. )
'Cause and Effect'? The Bozeman played an important 8more or less) role in FC, Generations and AGT, so her presence in the 24th century could have been part of the TCW (CaE, AGT, Gens, FC, the above, all written or co-written by Braga. Just a coincidence? Could he be Future Guy??? *insert X-Files theme music here* )
Any TOS-episodes maybe? (Or something not written by Braga? ) What could be coonected to the Temporal Cold War?

who ordered the 1701 back to the 60s for 'observation' in Assignment Earth.. that always seems fishy to me.. i think there was possibly more intentionally arranged behind them being assigned to do something so very implausible

Interesting... Trying to tie all the loose ends (time travel anyways) up?

I think the Desilu budget department assigned the 1701 back in time. And to "planet of the nazis", "planet of the gangsters", "the old west" and both Trelanes and Apollo's "planets of old costume department hand me downs".
This same sinister, timeline-altering agency was responsible for designing the NOMAD probe to resemble the first cloaking device (the sinister reasons for this are still not clear).

That's it! Gary Seven is a Future Guy-type agent!!
quote: Assignment: Earth
After traveling back in time to the 20th Century, the Enterprise intercepts an enigmatic space traveler named Gary Seven, who claims to be an Earth man trained by aliens to prevent Earth from destroying itself.
It would certainly make an interesting twist on the TCW.

I doubt Braga could remember that episode...

It's the other way around. Nomad appeared inthe 2nd Season Episode "The Changeling" and the cloaking device in question appeared in the third season episode "The Enterprise Incident".
