So what is every StarShip Captain's "Catch Phrase" for going to warp?

Make it go fast..
Press the button..
Hit the red button..
And the monkey presses the button..

When going to impulse.
"Make it slow"..

 

'charge and go' would be mine

 

Hey! Ho! Let's go!

 

“MOVE!”

 

"Light it up"

"Let 'er rip"

 

Captain Bateson: "I'm warping!"

 

“Light this candle”

 

Sounds like Captain Ratso. "I'm warping here! Up yours you pataq, I'm warping here!"

 

KIRK: Ahead, warp factor <insert number>.

 

"Let's do the time warp again"

 

Used by my players:
“Go.”
“Let’s Rock.”
“And... fly.”

and once, charging into battle against a vastly superior force:
“LEEEROY JEEEENNNKINS!”

 

"Ignition. Full Thrust"

Hal 9000, 2010

 

"Maximum Effort"

Captain Deadpool

 

"Cheese it!" and "Scoot! Scoot now!"

 

And...IGNORE RELATIVITY!

 

KIRK:

Scotty, I need warp speed in three minutes or we're all dead!

 

I remember early in the New Frontier novels, Captain Calhoun gave McHenry the desired course and speed and after a few beats asked why they weren't moving, and McHenry was like, you didn't say engage, and Calhoun just tells him if he gives him a course and speed, he wants to go there at that speed, and he doesn't have to wait for a further order.

 

Pike in "The Cage" was the first to say "Engage."

Captain catch phrase?

"NOW Dasher! now Dancer!
Now Prancer! and Vixen!
On Comet! on Cupid!
On Dunder! and Blitzen!
—Capt. Clause ​

 

Must be a hard task, knowing you're the 54267th captain over 3 centuries, and you still want to coin an original catch phrase.

I think most would simply stick to 'Helm, warp x, please', even if that is a less 'fun' answer.
