Federation Home Defense options

I was almost expecting Riker and Troi's house to end up being the ship they kept talking about Picard and Soji needing. With the rest of the equipment it had, why not an SIF and impulse and warp engines, too?
StarFleeet is generous, but not that generous. If he was going to have an entire StarShip, he would be living in space and commanding a ship. But he's living planetside because of his children.

Who said anything about it being an official Starfleet ship? Riker and Troi were requisitioning a lot of spare parts for the Titan and stashing them for later. ;)
 
He's a StarFleet Captain, he's not going to pull that kind of dishonest BS.

He's not Erik Pressman, give him some more credit on his honesty and moral compass as a protege of Jean-Luc Picard.
So, that was clearly a joke. About a fictional character. Maybe relax? (Also, if you'll recall, Captain Kirk and crew stole a *whole* starship, arguably twice, so... ;) )

What I was really getting at is that Starfleet is far from the only place a human can acquire a starship. He might could even replicate a good bit of it, especially at a Captain's clearance level.
 
I'm talking about the Ferengi, about wherever the Maquis were getting their ships, about wherever Rios bought or acquired La Sirena, etc.
The Ferengi probably has their own "StarShip" dealers lots. The Maquis stole most of their stuff. Rios probably purchased it somewhere given that he is of good standing and operates in Federation Space without issue.
 
Maybe Riker went back to that one planet and bought the ECHO PAPA 500 or what ever the name was ;-P
You just prompted me to think that if Riker and Troi's house did actually turn out to be capable of space travel, "Lollipop" would be a great name for it as a ship.
