Fox-04 -- The Prime Directive

Oh man, you are right!! :crazyeye:

I thought they were never in the same episode, seeing that Wesley left for the academy and Barclay joned halfway in the series.

I remmeber that episode you refering to now ... isn't it the one where some mysterious virus hit the enterpirse (yeah, again). I remember distnctly something abt a glass of water in 10-forward :p

Hollow Pursuit. The only glass I remember is that one that someone left finger marks on - but I seem to remember that being caused by nanites.
 
and I swear this time it is the Cardasian who approached me and initiated the trade, not me!!!

Ok me confused I notice during Ruff's turnset he initiated most/all of the trades with the non federation members. Or was it just Barclay's imagination?

I put the quote up since it appears our captain still observes the "Prime Directive" as such. (well the Ferengi dude)

Ok going back to the holodeck. Seven of Nine is programmed in there and looks reeeaaallll good. So where did all the Star Trek people go?

You don't think that Barclay would ignore the Prime Directive do you? He thought he was on the holodeck and nothing was 'real'.

and wesley hoodwinked him by beaming aboard the bridge. Cute.

Nice trick Ruff I like your cunning.

Ok Data opens arch and Sherlock Holmes appears and starts trades with non federation members. Hey that one would work too. So when is it my turn???

That is actually one of the plot in "Ship In a Bottle", but its not Sherlock Holmes but Prof Moriarty (sp?) ... strictly speaking the reverse of the plot (they thought they were beamed out of the holodeck, but actually still inside).

And Ruff, now I remember fully the episode. It was the one with exotic Troi in the holodeck as the Goddess of Empath :) No, I don't think its nanites. Nanites is that Wesley experiment. Its some biochemical compound wreaking havoc causing Enterprise to accelerate close to structural failure.

Doctor's Personal Log

I have been forced to assume my ECH persona due to a lack of command personnel. The captain and commander are both away negotiating a treaty. Mr Tuvok and Mr Paris have failed to return from their survey of the dark nebula we discovered recently. Lieutenant Torres has gone to investigate. Ensign Kim has, yet again, managed to seriously injure himself during one of his holo programs. I've lost count of the number of times this has happened yet he never seems to listen to my advice.

Acting Captain's Log

Stardate 2385.1

A review of the Federation's planets shows no major problems with the exception of Yekaterinburg whose population is not growing. I take the necessary action to correct this oversight. It should be noted that this planet is subject to severe cultural pressure from the Klingons.

The Dominion contact us with a rather one sided trade offer which I promptly decline.

DominionOffer.jpg


The Dominion then wish us to cancel our trade with the Cardassians. This meets with a similar reply to the last communication.

A scouting mission of the Romulan capital planet reveals an interesting build up of forces.

RomulanCap.jpg


Our build up of forces to attack the Breen planet is continuing. An attack by a Breen CS infiltrator weapon fails to disrupt this.

Continuing surveys by the CX class disclose an Aldorian planet on bearing 180 from Mars.

The research into the new metal technology completes. After due consideration research starts on a technology which will ease maintenance of our ships and weapons.

Now that our forces in the vicinity of the Breen planet have built up I feel the time has come to deal with it. We outnumber them and their shields are down so it should be routine.

Ermm......

The post attack computer analysis contains phrases such 'insufficient forces', 'precipitate attack' and 'poor judgement'. I obviously need far more practice in the combat simulator. :( Perhaps I should speak to Lieutenant Torres about the ECH programming. More to the point what is the Captain going to say???!

I decide to leave the Breen planet for better qualified personnel to deal with whilst ensuring that stronger weapons are sent to the invasion force.

The Aldorians approach us with a trade offer. After negotiation we agree to trade our metal technology for their freighter technology plus 700 bars of gold pressed latinum.

Approaches to our federation members result in the following trades.

VulcanTrade.jpg


KilingonTrade.jpg


A new starship fuel is discovered near Earth and Yekaterinburg although we are not yet able to exploit it. The population of Earth is stabilised pending the construction of an entertainment complex.

The Cardassian contact us to offer a trade. Whilst not convinced of the necessity for this technology I agree to the offer.

We receive a communication from the Vulcans talking about something known as Emancipation.

Stardate 1830.0

Tactical’s officers personal log:

The planet west of Earth has been taken now by the Cardassians so now we loose out on the special units to help us in our military adventures.

It appears the Cardassians are locked into a charter we cannot change so will have to put forth our charter elsewhere.

Upon inquiry with our science team I learn that we are building our advanced science facility in planet Libyan when it will yield us very little extra science at 49. After consulting we decide that it must be stopped and moved to Earth where we have near 152 science and with modifiers will jump to 304 rather than a measly 49.

Furthermore our science team insists we should be building a structure that offers advanced production in Libyan. (aka IW)

Civ4ScreenShot0135.jpg


Stardate 1832.1

Our scientists finish the advanced weaponry platform known as RP06 and feel we should start on a new government tech to make our population happier.

Planet Earth has some unrest and begin a JT compiler to help that followed by the advanced science facility known as Delta quantum mechanics facility in our high science output planet. The JT compiler will be finished in 2 turns and we have engineers improving the production facilities on Earth.

Stardate 1834.2

Planet Yeka finishes Gren attacker and we start a constitution class warship.
Engineers performing their usual duties.

Stardate 1836.3

Navigators report ship deployment throughout quadrant however I feel since we are not at constitution class we should bring these ships back to Earth territory for upgrades.

Sir we are receiving a hail from the Klingons. Go ahead ensign put them on.

Yes officer cos we ask that you cancel your dealings the Dominion. We have no cause to discontinue our relationship with them at this time Commander Klaag so we must decline your request. Klaag screams: How dare you insult the Klingon empire and has changed his status to annoyed.

Civ4ScreenShot0123-1.jpg


Stardate 1838.4

Sir we are receiving another hail from Klaag. (cos thinks to himself WTH does he want now!!!) Klaag what can I do for you. YOU have insulted the Klingon empire and we are canceling all our deals with your Federation. Soon we shall test your mettle.

Civ4ScreenShot0124-1.jpg


Sir we are receiving a hail from the military team stationed at Harrappan. Ok put them on and see what is delaying liberating these kind people from the Breen.

Commander Cos we are ready to begin our attack again.

We had to waste three of our torpedo launchers but 4 of our Gren attackers have taken the city. Excellent work commander, will inform Starfleet of our new addition.

Science team reports having moved the specialist to Epsilon to setup an advanced science facility known as the “accelerator”. Excellent that should help that planet a lot to contribute to science.

Civ4ScreenShot0126-1.jpg


Stardate 1840.5

Sir we are now receiving a hail from the Cardassians. Ok put them on (cos thinks to himself do these people ever stop bugging us). Yes it Gul du Khat. Gul asks I would like to ask the Federation to reconsider its charter and join in ours. How does that sound to you commander Cos? Several minutes of silence pass by. Cos looks at Gul du Khat and says that’s got to be the boldest request we have received yet. Of course not Gul what makes you think we are going to drop our charter with us for thousands of years. Gul abruptly turns the channel off. Cos looks and says under his breath “boy would I like to twist that guys neck”.

Sir we are receiving a hail from the Ferengi Cuyana. Ferengi oh great this can’t be good. Yes Negus what can we do for you. We demand that you give us latinum immediately. Mmmm you demand what don’t you take that one to Klingons I am sure they will give you a more appropriate response than we will. So what does that mean commander. Cos looses his temper and say out loud “Blow it out your tailpipe you greedy little man” end communication ensign.

Civ4ScreenShot0128-1.jpg


Stardate 1842.6

The chief engineer is contacting us from the drydock sir. Yep ensign put him on. So NamliaM how goes the battle. Well been real busy of late with this new constitution class ships but we just have brought online a new one. Thank you NamliaM.

Our charter spreads in Teno of the Vulcan homeworld.

Stardate 1844.7

Ferengi contacts us again and negotiate open travel through our system and trades 7gpt for latinum. (strange folk these Ferengi)

Our science team discovers a new government tech and revolts to emancipation to make our people happier. They recommend that we proceed to an advanced form of weaponry to compliment the RP06.

Libyan finishes advanced science facility and start a constitution class warship.

Cardassians declare war on the Romulans.

Civ4ScreenShot0130-1.jpg


Civ4ScreenShot0131-1.jpg


Stardate 1846.8

Not much to report only our infiltrators inform us that the Klingons are preparing for war.

Civ4ScreenShot0133-1.jpg


Stardate 1848.9

Not much to report although if we could irrigate in Yeka we could build farms and work gold. (once we get biology we should build a farm there on cottage not worked and then work the gold)

Stardate 1850.10

We are contacted by the Dominion and they request open travel in our system and grant their request.

Planet Epsilon finishes constitution class transport ship and starts accelerator science facility.

Personal log:

We should consider retiring some of our NX class ships or upgrading them. Perhaps running science at 0% for a while might help but I think just retiring a few might be better. In addition our war efforts on the Romulans have been meaningless and once we discover new weapons platform (which isn't far off) and Earth is finished with Delta quantum mechanics can start building attackers.

Our infiltrators report that Romulans are heavily defended and we should start our attack on planet Kufah which is poorly defended.

No real opportunity for trading techs although Vulcans would for sci meth/RP for corporation which in my opinion wasn't worth it. All the others are too advanced for any trading.
 
:goodjob: getting the Breen city ... so does it really have the Pyramid???

And WTH are the Klingons doing? swaying in and out of the Federation charter??? They sure doen't look a bit like the legendary honorific and stolid Klingons I hear of.

Cardassians attack on Romulans as well? Ha! Great. Let's hope that The Klingon join in our war effort (but they seems t be good friend ... ha, what irony, Klingons and Romulans are friends in this alternate universe :crayeye:) ... instead of declaring on us once again!!!

The war with Romulans is not meaningless, commander, but largely a relationship boosting tatic. We should still concentrate on military build up and also spreading charter to the Cardassians.

--
 
Perhaps I phrased that wrong captain what I should have said is uneventful. As to the Pyramids yep they are there and we can go to any government we want now.

Once Earth is finished with Oxford (3 turns) will be able to pump out lots. I think we should consider building IW in Libyan.

We lost some turns moving Oxford from Libyan to Earth but I couldn't see us loosing a multiplier of 100% on 152 beakers against 49. We might have lost 3 or 4 turns at Libyan.

EDIT: If we can get some specialist in Harappan we could get a GE which is nice for a wonder.
