[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] That's what I sort of tried to promote in the Charts: for decades, the Klingons and Cardassians have thrown impotent insults across the gulf that has Betreka Nebula in the middle, but UFP presence there has kept the fighting sides apart. Naturally, then, when the Dominion War breaks out, the favored Cardassian strategy is to go through Betreka towards the Klingons... And the Dominion goes along with it, because an invasion route that separates the Klingons from the Feds is just the thing they want. The Feds, expecting a direct plunge towards Earth, go "Huh?" and are left standing still. It's a nice coincidence that the actual DS9 wall maps support this strategy and astrography. ;) Moving the Klingon/Romulan border corewards to Gamma Hydra would make this far less workable. But the idea has its merits... (Incidentally, "Way of the Warrior" is troublesome in that it claims the Klingon invasion was halted before it reached Cardassia, yet Klingons got hold of several Cardassian systems anyway. How is this possible if the Cardassian home system is the one nearest to Bajor? Did the Klingons attack in a wide front? Or did they spread out to grab whatever they could after Cardassian resistance at the home system solidified?) Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
