"Tomed mission" suggests a place named Tomed, which sort of negates David George III's attempt at an explanation. Unless IRW Tomed was named after this place, that is.
"Teachings of Surak" probably bears the same relationship to the actual teachings of Surak as the Bible does to those of Jesus... It may also be the abbreviated edition for children and humans.
Given how fast Vulcan ships are, choosing Regulus as their Sullust makes sense even if the target is Procyon. The minor sidestep won't significantly delay the fleet or anything, and Regulan bloodworms probably are easy to tell from Andorian spies.
Vulcan commandoes with mini-lirpas... Newer-generation Trekkies will probably see the thin green Elven line at Mount Doom. We old codgers rejoice for a different reason.

What andorian new ship?? I only saw the standard on the cap-pages.

And I just grabbed my copy of "Among the Clans" Doughboy05
They call it "Kuy'va" in Andorian, and Andoria in Federation standard. No relation with any real star, and they guessed it is 274 light years away from Sol. Take it with a Kilimanjaro of salt.

Anyone else notice the (presumably) Andorian text on V'las' falsified recording of the Xindi weapon?
Have we seen this before? If nothing else, it seems that they read right-to-left, since the text is right-justified, and it appeared on the screen in that direction. Bottom-to-top, too, if that means anything.

And the complete fleet: four cruisers, two smaller vessels, and NX-01.
It looks to me, like they took the standard Andorian ship and made it 'thinner' and took the pods off of the wings. That's a pretty easy way to mod a CGI ship.

Tomed was mentioned in the TNG episodes "The Neutral Zone" and "The Pegasus". Some kind of incident occured there between the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire.
