Saying the United States should not have responded to Pearl Harbor? That's news to me. Who says that?

...enough influence to protect her? For that matter, given Perrin is getting cozy with Leida's mother-in-law, it's not that much of a stretch their influence also protected him. So no, by sparing Mon Mothma's family, Palpatine isn't being nicer than the Dominion, just being more politically...

...some DS9 and I think Gilroy maybe stumbled just a tiny bit at the end by letting Perrin live. Damar's wife and kid were executed by the Dominion immediately after he defected. If Emperor Palpatine of all people comes across as nicer than the Founders of the Dominion, then someone's writing...

In a way, wasn't this answered in "The Search, Part 2"? From the Dominion's perspective, the simulation probes how the characters would react to an agreement between the Federation and Dominion which gave the Dominion influence in the Alpha Quadrant. And the results show how that would be...

A lot of words to not talk about Sisko.

...the war to the best advantage. Losing an extinction level war, is a crime in and of itself. And make no mistake that was the purpose of the Dominion. Not enslavement. Fighting a war with two hands tied behind your back is the most stupid thing that you can do. Let's look at this another way...

...comic in nature. Some sample episodes... 9 And 2 Make 31: Weyoun 9 and Sloane 2 arrive on the station. It seems that Section 31 and the Dominion cloning experts have joined forces, so both sides can now clone their best operatives. Weyoun is assigned to DS9 as liaison, while Sloane is an...

I really disagree with the view that Insurrection should have instead been a Dominion War movie, that probably would have been much better, sure Insurrection was probably at least a little too low stakes but the TNG cast doing a Dominion War movie would have felt way too much like them doing...

See I think the destruction of the Romulan star as a plot point could have been the good basis for a thriller series, even just if it was the inciting plot point of the series and not the overall focus. What did happen and will it happen again? Maybe this disagrees with Picard but I had always...

The committing of a crime in the name of noble ends is still a crime.

...then send one of theirs to the morgue. ' If you and them are totally pacifists...then no problem. But surrender will bring even worse problems. The Dominion HAD to be stopped. Period. This is what they were designed for. The Cardasians HAD to be stopped. Not to do so would have been worse...

...No dishonorable retreat. ;) The Romulans also have an interesting weapon in SFC3, the mytotronic beam, which they developed from salvaged Dominion technology. It's not so much a traditional weapon but more of one that stuns existing weapons, kind of like how ion cannons in the Star Wars...

...Space ... the final frontier. These are the voyages of 98 infant changelings. Their centuries long mission....to explore strange new worlds. To seek out and map new life and new civilizations, and prepare them for Dominion overlordship. To help the Dominion create order where no order was before.

...to defend itself and survive an engagement if it gets into one, but it was not designed to fight wars. That it can do so admirably in the Dominion War is a testament to Starfleet learning lessons and implementing changes. But as we saw, the coolant system on at least the USS Enterprise...

...they haven't done so at a pace equal to that of the Federation, in those thousands of years in their past, or they would've been far more advanced by now. Either because it simply wasn't necessary, or because the autocratic structure of the Dominion still somehow stifles the pace of innovation.

...original approach to the Galaxy class. With that in mind, the World Razor should win in a fight. Later updates to the Galaxy class (such as refits for the Dominion War) could pose more of a challenge, but even then, the GCS is still fundamentally not built as a warship, the World Razor is.

Well, like all fanfic, that sounds horrible.

The Dominion will continue to improve as well. They are big enough to send a large expeditionary force and still carry out a large R&D effort.

Yes, the Dominion still enjoys a number of significant advantages, those long transporter beams being one of them, their superior shipbuilding (and soldier-producing) speeds another one. But the Federation may make up for their (dis)advantages in those fields over time, too.

That super long range transporter they've got would be handy.
