[QUOTE]Originally posted by Neutrino 123: [QB] 1. Critique of Harry�s answer: Are you crazy? Why do you need so much firepower for a quiet sector? ;) Starfleet no doubt needs its cruisers and Defiants elsewhere. All the important tasks can be accomplished (in my opinion) with the much smaller forces that I took. If it looks like anyone might turn hostile, more ships can always be requested. Also, I doubt contact with the Semmans should be performed under the authority of the science council, since it was scientists that pissed them off in the first place. 2. I now have the [i]USS Hornet [/i] (refit [i]Renaissance[/i] class) and an Istanbul class transport, as well as the [i]Runnymede[/i] (which, by the way, is perfectly suited to give a Federation presence, as long as it doesn�t have to do anything...). I view the [i]Renaissance[/i] class refit as a small [i]Ambassador[/i] class vessel (slightly earlier design). It is obviously somewhat less heavily armed, and has a shorter range, but retains good speed and scientific capabilities, and can host small diplomatic conferances. What type of starbase is in this sector??? 3. I will take the [i]Hornet[/i] to make contact with the Gorn fleet over subspace as soon as possible. They might not even know that they are heading to a quarantined area, and if they do, negotiations will be necessary. 4. According to this site http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/starfleet_ships1.htm the [i]Istanbul[/i] has a transport capacity of 2000 people. I would assume that it has an EVACUATION capacity of significantly greater then that, surely 3,500. The [i]Istanbul[/i] could thus, carry all the people in the colony, quarantining all essential crew in the bridge and engineering (if it can�t, then the [i]Hornet[/i] and [i]Runnymede[/i] can help). Then, the [i]Istanbul[/i] ship could more at maximum cruise speed toward the ship that is carrying the cure. This would take a big chunk off the time it takes to administer the cure, probably insuring that all the colonists get it in time. If calculations show that some might not get it in time with this method, emergency diplomatic efforts would be initiated with the Semmans (assuming that the Dorzans are actually pointing them to a good reason � not for example, �this disease looks plant-like and those guys are plants!�) in a polite but urgent manner. For the rebellion scenario, it is not Starfleets duty to interfere in this matter, but mediation would certainly be possible. The Federation sympathizes with the rebels cause, but condemns their methods. In addition, the [i]Istanbul[/i] class ship along with the [i]Hornet[/i] would be sent to the colony. This would allow any civilians to be evacuated quickly if the situation deteriorates. One diplomatic proposal to both sides if it can�t be resolved quickly would be to allow the rebels to be exiled to Federation territory (assuming they haven�t damage the colony or killed any people) while noting that the Federation will continue to attempt to encourage the Dorzans to gain a more enlightened view of the aged people. 5. Here is a scenario: A group of 40+ Dorzans somehow disguised themselves as younger people and voted in an election. They are later found out, but manage to escape in a shuttle owned by the wealthiest of them. They arrive at the starbase and ask for asylum, but the Dorzans pursue and ask for them to be returned and face punishments of 40 years imprisonment for most, and lifetime imprisonment for the ringleader. What do you do? [/QB][/QUOTE]
