[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ace: [QB] Hello. I was having a discussion with a friend one day about the Dominion War and eventually, the USS Odyssey. He had never seen the episode where the ship was destroyed so I told him the basic facts of how the ship got destroyed. The main issue was that Captain Keogh, finding shields ineffective against the Jem Ha'dar fighters, transferred power from the shields to the phasers. However, as the Odyssey retreats, a lone fighter makes a run for the giant ship and rams right into it. After some thinking my friend brought up this question: Shouldn't the Captain have kept the shields on to prevent the fighter from running into the hull? At first, I thought there would be some way to put this off, but now that I think about it, I don't know. Had Captain Keogh kept the sheilds up, would the fighter just bounce off, or at least not lead to such a devastating collision? It is after all, metal (or something like that) and not a type of energy weapon. Thoughts? [/QB][/QUOTE]
