I have news, but it isn't certain, or very good. I'm waiting to see.

Oh....I get it now. Sorry, I was distracted. The hottie that faded away is back, and was suggesting some cardio excercise and yoga, saying how flexable she used to be. :Drool1:

THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID!!!!! :lol:

Then she said "I'm not THAT easy."

So, I said "So what your saying is that while you are easy, your just not THAT easy."

So, she said "In a certain context"

I asked if she'd be willing to share that context.

She wants to talk about it over ice cream later this week :happydevil:

Ice cream, eh? It'd be more fun if she'd said "under ice cream" rather than "over". :)

Note that she didn't say "while we have ice cream" or something like that. Definie innuendo there. :happydevil:

Back on topic. The death of the Lantree was at the same time, one of the best and worst.

The bridge crew standing at attention when the ship died was really nice. It showed a sense of honor that our modern military has, but is commonly lacking in trek.

The actual destruction via a single torpedo completely vaporising the ship really sucked though.

Seriously, who knew a Miranda nacelle strut was such a massive weak point? :?

If the Dominion had just focused all fire on the nacelles and struts, Starfleet would have fallen.

It's what I tend to do in Bridge Commander, and it seems to work pretty well. :D

When I used to play that game, I'd always try and target the bridge. I'm just evil :twisted:

Knocking out the bridge is instant, hitting the nacelles isnt.

I'd aim for the bridge if I was fighting a Federation vessel. Hitting it would kill the entire command crew, decapitating the ship's leadership and leave it drifting helplessly until the backup bridge can take over. In that time I'd quickly move behind the ship and target the nacelles. Boom.
