So the Asian captain will get a Chinese-name ship because we wouldn't want to confuse the audience. Better retcon it so Captain Sulu gets command of the USS Kamikaze or something instead of the Excelsior.

I'd like to imagine the Malcorans (from First Contact) went on their merry way without warp drive, then just got casually invaded by the Dominion during its foray into the Alpha Quadrant. Welcome to the galaxy, suckers.

Railing Kill posted:Doesn't Betazed get rolled by the Dominion at one point? I remember one major Federation planet serving as an example to the audience how serious the situation is. If Betazed goes down, can you imagine the shitstorms going on elsewhere? All those dumbass colonies TNG deals with every third episode: all gone. Yep, Betazed did get rolled by the Dominion. If you ever wondered where the Enterprise-E was during the war, it was in the fleet that failed to defend Betazed and had to retake it. There was a novel or two about it.

I wonder if there's an industry in exporting holo-sims of the Battle of Thermopylae and the like to Klingons who are bored by their own culture

There were several episodes where Crusher had command of a bridge night shift for the experience / resume padding. They also left her in command when everyone else was on Lore's Borg planet looking for Picard.

Zurui posted:Did they ever mention that the Voyager nacelles move up and down because of the subspace bullshit in the show or is that just something I remember from a magazine? It's the technobabble reason but no, I don't think they ever said so on the show. The real reason is that Berman and Braga thought it'd be cool to have a ship with moving parts

More like Berman had spent every moment after TNG trying to remake it. Love letter to him, more likely.

Big Mean Jerk posted:It was still pretty bad when I played last year. The Defiant bridge is the only one that isn't absolutely massive. There's also "canon" Voyager and TOS interiors that are well-scaled. They *can* make interiors that aren't gigantic open space, but their 3rd-person camera is lovely and their artists are lazy so most interiors look like those screenshots. I think you can invite 25 (or maybe it's 15) people to a ship interior so it's possible to fill a bridge with people.
