Now that the Romulans fought alongside the Federation in the Dominion War, could we maybe see the Neutral Zone being abolished? I wonder if the Romulan treaty will hold..I'd love to see more Federation ships with cloaking devices! ------------------------ Are you in love with me, Ensign? -Seven of Nine to Harry Kim

Nx how did that thread get in there?
At wolf 359 the fleet probably fought for more than an hour maybe even two before getting oblieterated

I dunno, just thinking out loud I guess. The subject of the Neutral Zone came up and I thought that maybe it might not be so "forbidden" anymore, since the Romulans have made peace with the Federation.

Sorry I got carried away. However I think the points I made in BoBW is similar to ST:FC since the Borg cube can travel very fast. However the Sovereign Class is also very fast as well. So the Enterprise could have catched up while the rest of the fleet were slowing the cube down.

How many ST-novels and/or short stories have dealt with Wolf 359? Have any of them spoken of the chronology of events, even non-canon? I would like to know if SF had waves and attack-wings. I mean, since they knew the borg were coming they must've made some sort of formation or something.
Also I've heard there was some ship(s) that survived by retreating or something. I wonder which ship held out the longest...

At BoBW only one ship survived the encounter. The USS Endeavor Nebula Class ship commanded by Capt.Amasov. However we do not know how they survived.

::sigh:: Of course you ask anyone else that and they'll tell you it was the Cheyenne-class USS Ahwahnee which was the original survivor.

The Encyclopedia III claims the Endeavour got away from 359 since it's captain had a log on the Borg and was still alive. Unfortunatly, in the spidoe "Scorpion", where this info was all mentioned, Wolf 359 was never mentioned at all. It is possible that the USS Endeavour merely had a single incident with the Borg, similar to the USS Tombaugh, USS Excalibur, and SS Raven.
As for the USS Ahwahnee, it's assumed to have survived since we know the USS Ahwahnee NCC-73620 model was part of the wreckage, but in "Redemption", a screen showing the ships in Picard's fleet listed the USS Ahwahnee NCC-71620. It's assumed (and possibly confirmed) that they thought the original registry was too high and lowered it. Therefore, it's assumed she survived. It's most likely that she was damaged and her crew killed (or escaped), and was repaired and recommissioned.

Or maybe the Ahwahnee in "Redemption" was an entirely new ship.

If the USS Ahwahnee had the same registry not including adding a letter to the end of it then it seems likely that it had survived. However the episode scorpion did not mention that capt.amasov ship survived since for all we know he could have got away on a escape pod like a benjamin sisko. However, for clarity sake i think the endeavor survived the battle but not the Ahwahnee.

Actually, for clarities sake, the Endeavour was NOT at Wolf 359. "Scorpion" never mentioned when or where the Endeavour met the Borg, if at all. Therefore, as far as we know, Endeavour was not at Wolf 359.
