[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Okay, some of my notes: -Reman fun: Used as ground troops during the Dominion War! Cannon fodder. One wonders on what planets they were used... Probably only on planets that the Romulans had sole operational authority, so no one would notice where they were from. It certainly seems that the Romulans used them as a slave race, and they were not some Vulcan offshoot. -Hey, first time anyone has used the term "Dominion War"! -Shinzon rose to prominence during the Dominion War, winning a dozen engagements. I'm guessing that somewhere during this time he started bulding the Scimitar. Given the superficial resemblence to a Dominion battlecruiser (probably unintentional on the production side, but certainly there), I'm guessing that the War gave him more than just prominence in the Romulan ranks. Perhaps the Scimitar was a Dominion design captured by the Remans, and then completed in secret? Also, the dustifying weapon they have is in line with something the Dominion would think up... -For those wondering about the English language use of Scimitar and Scorpion for the Reman ships, well, with the Picard-deifying Shinzon in charge... -This is the most enjoyable Trek battle I've seen since "Balance of Terror". It's an obvious take on that theme, with the E-E making FULL advantage of her arsenal. We see torpedoes flying from EVERY designed launcher, plus one from the main shuttlebay area. Would it be a popup, or could someone have opened the bay and launched somethign from there? The DVD would probably be needed to solve that question once and for all. And only the forward underslung launcher was used for Quantums. Neat! -The shuttlebay itelf seems to have changed. In FC, it was designed that the whole door was identical, implying that the whole thing would retract when launching craft. In Insurrection, this changed somewhat, with only the centre sections opening up to launch Picard's shuttle. This time, we see that these centre sections are different in design than the ones surrounding it. They are clearly seen to be different as the Argo launches, and within the shuttlebay you can see there are walls, making the centre section an independent construct from whatever is surrounding it. Perhaps it's a dedicated launch bay for the Argo, with the surrounding sections still capable of opening to launch standard craft? -I did not see the NX-01 in the briefing room. All I thought I saw was two sets of six starships, what seemed to be mirrored series of the six Enterprises... -Janeway IS a three-pip Vice Admiral. From the fouth row, this was abundantly clear. Eww. -The phaser rifles have always been known as semi-automatic weapons, but this time they were very rapid-fire. While I'm sure Worf could work that trigger really fast, I'm sure there's a full-auto at work here. Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
