[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] [QUOTE]I still wonder why the heck Starfleet never bothered developing Genesis as a last-resort defensive weapon... Of course, considering the reaction portrayed in TSFS and TVH, I guess it's understandable that the whole thing was buried and forgotten...[/QUOTE]My guess would be that the devise was banned by treaty. Then there's the small detail that it doesn't work properly and it's only real use is as a weapon of mass destruction, which is not what the Federation is all about...However, I'm sure there's a secret "Raiders of the Lost Ark" type warehouse and vault full of such dangerous devises, just in case. In fact a drew up a small list of potential doomsday devises before I settled on Genesis, I remember that one of them was an Omega bomb. My reasoning being that if they could destroy subspace around the cube that it would restrict them to sublight speeds, buying Earth and the Federation more time to come up with an effective defence. I decided however that this was a little TOO drastic since it would effectively cut off Sol and probably Alpha Centauri from the rest of the Galaxy, not to mention stranding all of those Starfleet and civilian ships in the blast radius.
