instead of giving up whatever else the Romulans might have asked for - something perhaps a little dearer, like inhabited planets, etc.

As much as I hate to say it I get the feeling the Federation will bend over backwards for peace. Thus they would sign anything to prevent war.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

:::the necromancer strikes again:::: :vamp2:

After the TNG Tech Manual, it's not like we didn't KNOW that the E-D wasn't gonna get destroyed, right? After reading that chapter in the end of the book, about the "visions" they were having for the E-E already. But, it was a REALLY weak way, for a ship I came to love, to go down.

Hey Mark, just a suggestion. On threads like these, that have been dead for a while, it is udually better for you to just start a new one.

Back on topic, yes it was a terrable way for the Enterprise I grew up with to go down.
It should have been from... two Klingon Vorchas.

Three Vorchas, in a pitched battle.

The saucer landing on the planet was cool even if the way to happened wasnt.

The crash sequence was brilliant, but shields or not, the Enterprise should have been able to take that Klingon ship. A full weapons burst should have done it.

It was pretty pathetic to be honest. the E-D should have blown that klingon ship to hell in seconds, shields or not.

Indeed. Purely ridiculous.
I mean, I hated that ship, but I'd like it to at least have gone down with a little dignity.

Yes, even in death the GCS is a disapointment.
Man, is there anything that ship did right?
