[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] ...Although one wonders what "territory" has to do with Trek space combat. Even insystem combat (which the battle to retake DS9 probably represents) is comparable to fighting on an open ocean, and a perfectly calm one at that. "Territory" doesn't come with any "terrain" features, not in this style of space combat. What did Sisko know? The defensive capabilities of his station, probably. At least prior to the self-destruct routine Kira ran on them. And something about the psychological makeup of the Cardassians and the Dominion. Plus more detail on Dukat and Weyoun specifically. All of those did contribute to the eventual victory, and even to the fleet combat part - Ross or, say, Picard probably wouldn't have been able to lure out the Cardassians that way. That still doesn't make it logical to place Sisko in a position that calls for flag-level training. But a personal advisor to Ross would have been a fitting position... Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
